PRS Mark Tremonti MT15 V2

[2dor]

tis gonna be an interesting year for me, for sure. I was all set on getting a SYN20IR and a module or two, in a few months, but, with the this amp and the Archon coming out, for less, AND I'll probably be able to play them in a store . . .

Definitely worth a look/listen.

That Archon Classic is priced really well & sounds awesome.

It’s listed for $949 at Sweetwater. The Archon Classic is $1149. That price difference is a head scratcher (but great price on the Archon!).

Dude I saw the price on the Archon Classic and did a double take. lol Gotta love reasonably priced gear.

Wonder if they fixed the FX Loop...

This right here. I had an MT15, terrible hum in the loop. Sent it back to PRS under warranty, they said they fixed it, it still hummed like crazy. I loved the tone of the amp, but yeah no quality FX loop killed my buzz for this thing.

The amp really interests me, but I highly dislike the looks. I don't like steel-chassis lunchbox amps and that simple logo and the font. Looks super cheap for such a cool amp.

On the 100 IIRC the font looked cheap as well, but it's a proper chassis, so i doesn't look that bad.

Wow! That Archon classic is right up my alley!!!

They’re clearing out the v1 for $650 everywhere.

Tube driven loop on this one now: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MT15v2--prs-mt15-v2-mark-tremonti-15-watt-tube-amplifier-head

EDIT: It always was.

Using the "overdrive" on the lead channels removes two gain stages, and as per the video you can hear it changes the voicing quite a bit. You definitely can't get there by just turning the gain pot down.

Ive watched multiple videos and it doesn't really seem to change the overall voicing that much from what I can tell Would definitely like to try one and see!

They’re clearing out the v1 for $650 everywhere.

Yep, the original release price.

New version of the amp - my gas is intensifying...

I usually dig Zach's tones, but these sound pretty light on low end and a bit raspy. Not convinced based on this, although people seem to love the V1 (and I've been curious to check one out)
