360 has da FUZZ. Does 370?

ShaunNecro is my new science advisor.

The old 260, 270, and 360 are the only acoustic units I know of with da fuzz, there's also a newer 260, but its garbage. No fuzz on the 370.

My Mig 50 through an OR212 was louder than a 100w dual rec through a mesa 412 and a drummer whose main inspiration was Stanier on about 6 (VOL I, unbridged).

Maybe mine was just magical before it suffered electrical haemorrhage?

Seriously, it was fucking impressive.
But they are all different. There is zero consistency.

Caveat: I know I've said this many times before, but giant rigs like you guys have are NOT the norm down here. Gear wasteland and ridiculous prices keep everyone in check.
So I doubt if I rolled up to jam with one of you that the Mig50 would come close to cutting it.
But for the most part I can smash faces all day long with it down here, so that's good enough for me.

Also, SCIENCE FUCKING RULES.

I use my RedBear MK60 coupled with a Sunn Beta Lead. Plenty loud together but nothing rivaling a lot of guys here. It works out well for what I do and moves plenty of air. That being said... the RedBear is definitely quiet for a 60w amp. Definitely wish I had a MK120 as that would be a helluva better. Maybe some day when I'm sitting on piles of cash and can afford to really look at new amps.

Made = my point. FUZZ AMP! I mean if I'm spending an imaginary $1800 on a solid state stack, it better not need a damn pedal. But it also needs to sound damn good with them. 360!

I'll take my Laney GH50L as my midrange amp for grind jams today and see how it fares with / versus the 700 watt HM2 bass rig. Pretty sure it'll be fine, it'll be mix cutting not pushing much low end. But I'm not playing with a crazy loud drummer, no bass player, and rather than battle another guitarist, I'm one guy matching amp volumes so they sound awesome together. I'll record some on the tascam.

can't wait to hear that.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't have $1800 worth of fuzz. The bass player in my band has a 460 (I think) or something like that, and it has fuzz. It's not currently working, though. He's planning to rebuild it.

I don't think I'll ever own an $1800 rig, solid state or used Meatsmoke. If I had a real $1800 I'd fix life stuff, not amp boner.

That will be a sweet old school solid state amp!

I'm not sure I've ever owned a $1000 rig. Even $500 is pushing it.

Picking this up in a trade tomorrow. I know I've seen a few of these around the forums. How do they handle? Assuming simliar to old Peavey ss since it's a clone?

Peavey Standard clone, nice. Haven't seen one but some local hardcore crust guys use the Peaveys with good results.

pretty much the exact same as peavey. if it was some of their original designs then you can count on housefire.
