Isn’t Joe a big fan of using the Jubillee Rythm channel w a boost or the clip engaged

I’ve also been late to check out the JVM stuff. I know I recently dug one of the ToneX JVM caps from the Satch vault, but in Fractal land the IIC++ is my go-to for high gain 100% of the time and then I figure out what I’ll compliment it with, which is almost always a 5150 or boosted JCM800.
It’s been a while since I’ve done any scooped chugga metal, I’ve had my head up Plexi/Marshall ass for months now, to the point I’m reconsidering my next amp purchase from being a Mesa Mark to a Ceriatone King Kong because I’m not feeling quite as modern chuggy as used to.

My recollection of the zeitgeist back then was that you should get a Recto, a Mark, a Splawn or other boutique offering, or a boosted jcm. The JVM seemed to have leprosy for reasons I don’t really remember. Seemed like you could hardly give one away at one point in time.

IMO; the Fractal JVM is better than the real thing. He said, with love. I had it but that loop implementation and level problems I had with it were deal breakers. If they did a revamp and addressed those things; I would be day 1 buyer.

I don’t really consider it that noisy for a 100w high gain amp. I’ve never even bothered with a gate on mine.

Gotta recycle those oldies every so often to give off the illusion of productivity!

That amp follows a Dumble ODS topology.

It's sad to me we lost the Fryette deliverance MKI model way back. Replaced by MKII. How different are these models? Freaking massively different feel.
You would imagine they'd keep the MKI, because there's not much like this in fractal units. Maybe some day it comes back.
For the time being -- and probably for ever -- the MKI model lives in my tonex.

Also, I would like to see more FAS original models. For example: make a fractal model that is DRY as hell and SUPER unforgiving to picking. Like the deliverance was, or even more.
Stuff like that.
And the current FAS models are good, but I feel this can be taken much further, with more extreme models. That said, these will probably be very niche for most people, and may be heavily disliked by many.

I actually did that.Do like me Alex relegate your diet to ramen noodles for the next year, you may die but by God there will be toanz
It was either for my purchase of the II or the III but I said screw it and blew a big hole in my monthly budget. Ate ramen noodles for most of the month.
But it wasn't Cup Noodles. I picked up some egg noodle ramen from Vietnam* and made it with Lee Kum Kee Oyster Sauce, green beans, sprouts, onion, and pork, chicken or shrimp. Averaged $2.50 per meal.
No dates or restaurants that month and before I knew it I'd done it and was in Fractal heaven.
* BTW, the noodles are quite expensive from Amazon, I got them from Weee! and they were much more reasonable (prices have gone up since I picked up a case of them).
