From the other thread: It's a clone that's close to a Roadster (aka the Let Us Prey amp).

Dat Verellen is beautiful.

Its a clone of an Electric Amps (formerly Matamp USA) MV120, formatted and slightly modified to be closer to a Matamp Roadster. It's basically a GT120 with an added gain stage (the pregain knob in the upper input jack) which can by bypassed by going in the "direct" input, so I can use it for amp gain or clean for pedals. Its tasty.

The video I posted above is it being boosted by my Dunwich Amps Clean Boost, when using amp gain its the only pedal it really really liked. Gonna try different pedals into the Direct input this upcoming weekend.

Trying to figure out some verb and delay pedals that excel at being before amp gain as this head does not have an FX loop. Thinking Ghost Echo for verb, but not quite sure what delay's sound great before gain for trippy psychedelic tones without totally masking the base tone.

I like my RV3 and ES2 a lot for pre amp gain pedals.

I know you do.

If I don't go boss I'm kinda considering possibly Dispatch Master (set subtle and ambient) > Ghost echo (total wash).

That's a good plan too. I want a Ghost Echo really bad for my keyboard rig.

Congratulations on the new amp, it looks great! I am curious since it is a Electric MV120 / Roadster hybrid, how loud is it? I owned a a Matamp Roadster briefly and the only downfall was that it was fairly quiet until the volume was cranked all the way. It was a great sounding amp otherwise.

My goodness, this bass tone is absolutely filthy. Rad band alert!

Thanks man!!!!

This thing is loud as piss honestly. It gets really pushing air around 6 or 7 on the master though. Through my 6x12 it was definitely louder than my bandmates 5150 at the same volume setting. When you crank it the mids really pop out its got a lot of punch and with my Dunwich booster slamming it it's got tons of crunch and low end. I'd love to find a real roadster to compare it too, my friend has an EA MV120 were going to compare it with soon.

But does it do LUP? The people demand answers.

Fuck yeah, Skip. That video clip sounded pretty rad.

Got a half of a NGD in. This came in the mail:



And I turned it into this:



I dig the Hotrails. Got it wired to series, split and then parallel. I dig it. I can get really close to my LP and then flip the switch for more Fendery cleans. Can't decide if I wanna black out all the hardware or not though.

Nice Conky, I want to make myself a black/black/maple Esquire sometime in the near future.


I got this in today. I made the body last year out of pine, just got it painted satin black. Haven't had a chance to put it together with the parts I have yet.
