Tremonti new MT100

30mins onwards . 

Sounds pretty awesome.

Sounds fantastic. 3 individual channels for clean, overdrive and all the gain rather than a gain boost on one of the channels. I'll definitely be looking at that when it's out properly. Better be a good boy for Santa

As the owner of the MT-15 which has been widely reported as NOT being 15 watts and probably closer to double that, that's going to be one damn loud amp.

This is going to be an absolute beast and the clean channel is so good on these, as is the gain channel and I hope it has more range in the lower-medium stages but then again, I don't think that's what the amp is meant for.
EDIT: Just watched the whole vid and the amp chat/reveal and it looks like Channel 2 does exactly what I'd like. An amp that supposedly does it all.

I love that it has been delayed for so long because he is such a perfectionist, and yet he is still ensuring it is affordable (he says in the video he is hoping around $1800, definitely under $2000). This amp will sell well for sure. I've got an MT15 and it's incredible.

People's idea of affordable is hilarious

Played a MT15 recently and was blown away by how good it sounded (though a bit muddy with the volume all the way up) so this must sound monstrous

I haven't watched the video yet, but I presume this $2,000 amp will be of Chinese manufacture to keep it 'affordable'?

Affordable is relative. 
For a 100w 3 channel high performance amp l. Sub 2k is a good aim. 

That's puts it in the same ballpark as evh 5153 100w . 

Or victory 100w super kraken/sheriff etc. 


If Friedman made it it'd be 4k+.




... but also yes. 2k is a fucking lot of money when tesco value beans are a luxury item now

God damn affordable amps are expensive these days

I'd be interested in knowing what classes as a high performance amp. Does it do 0-60 in under 2.8 seconds?

I think a high performance amp is one where it's bought on a monday morning, then you put pictures up on The Fretboard monday afternoon and get 100 Wow!s and Wisdoms in an hour

Unusual nowadays to have a newly designed proper 3 channel switching amp and actually using all 3 seems uncommon now. Most people seem to stick to one and add pedals 

Interesting that almost no circuitry is shared between the channels, is that similar to how the H&K Triamp is constructed?

I was offered a hughes and kettner trilogy for £300 recently....just saying.

Sounds great to me. I'd be really interested in trying the overdrive channel. Have to remember the guitar he's playing there has his signature pickups in. The bridge is really hot and the neck is quite boomy. Not a fan generally. 

I'd like to hear it with a LP.

Do I need to watch all the video for this to make sense?

Nah just saying £2k for today's hottest thing when you can get an old monster of an amp for £300. 
Then again I'm tight and know fuck all about high gain amps.

Anyone know the UK release date? 

Fortheloveofguitar

No release date yet but preorder here is £1595 which is a much better price than I thought it would be.

Wow I thought that would be way over £2k! 

Wonder if they will follow Victory amps and release a pedal version?

And it's back with the retailer on Tuesday morning because it had someone's fingerprints on the front panel.
