Fortin Meshuggah 2.0 amp

Good lord, maybe someone wants to take a crack at dialing in the tone around 6 min in when he kicks in the boost pedal? Sounds amazing.

I would love to have this amp added to the Fractal stable. I actually owned serial #59 of the first gen, and it was a beast of an amp.

Any idea what the circuit is based on?

This amp is basically a Jose modded Marshall. I think we already have this in the axe.

Complete speculation but it almost had a plexi vibe to it at times… but way way more of umff..

 

[Randalljax]

I would say a Hot Rodded 800

It was a modded Marshallesk flavor for sure

Duno, it had the push pull pot and it effected the low gain and high gain pots. Like the one in the video.

I think that’s basically what the Fortin Cali is? Maybe this one, too.

Ola fucked up by not jumping the channels. He didn't use it correctly (or optimally).

There is more to it than just a modded Marshall, I think I’d try to get close with the Fas Modern for the higher tighter tones. Yes I know it’s not based on a Marshall per se, but the actually amp has a deepness to it.

That’s what the push pull pot is for, the outputs are blocked off on the amp. It only has a hi and low input.

Oh ok, I stand corrected! I thought it had two gain knobs for each of the inputs, like Plexis do…

Atomica with the grinder Boost on and a suitable IR.

FAS hot rod on higher gain settings with the right ir, blows the original meshuggah amp out of water interms of brutal tones atleast for me,
I use 1x12 v30 sic for added definition.
And grind as and when needed.

You can also use a plexi 50w but turn up the brightness.

the meshuggah amp is basically a 50w plexi
With el34’s, 12ax7’s.

1) Master volume before tone stack
2) 2 gains and inputs, when using hi input you can cut the low end using gain 1.
3) added bright cap on gain 2
( low input uses only gain 2)
4) saturation mod on mv.
5) the tone stack is not traditional at extreme values like for eg treble on 10 bass and mids will change differently and vice versa.

I think LT had it right
Atomica HI w grinder boost ( which is the Fortin ) and then if you need even more gain use the saturation

I tried that and it’s awesome with the York Audio Blackjack Cab IR or the YA Mesa OS Cab.

FAS Brown with the JP2C shred input boost, put a tube screamer in front, you're done.

Haha don't even need to touch anything, just FAS Brown and Shred boost get's me pretty much there. Normally I stick with the Thordendal Modern for his tones. Requires a lot of tone shaping though.

I dig the OH412 RECT Fred-2 as a match for it

None more black...
