Hughes and Kettner Puretone? Update - Nope... MJW

[tomjackson]

Somebody spill them, I'm intrigued.

I think want one too, so need to know what it is :D

BTW, what's happened to your Roadstar Matt?

[Matt77]

 

[Twinfan]

All hush-hush eh?  No problemo.

I guess I should spill the beans at some point about my first 'MJW' too shouldn't I?  ;)

[Matt77]

Yes.
I think someone else has a few things planned.
Someone's initials may be on a certain task list on the wall of a certain production facility I have just come from

Hmmmm, strange goings on are afoot and I want to be in on it!

[Twinfan]

Yes.

A few things?  Only the one mate!

Yes, I'm on Martin's waiting list.  Even after the money I've spent on his amps I have to wait like everyone else!  :lol:

I joined the list in early January, and I think my MJW will be up and running around May time for the first round of appraisals and tweaking.  Martin likes it when I come up with ideas for new amps to test him!

[Ian Price]

I see. I really do want a MJW at some point as well. I guess I'll just have to stick to the Martamp for the time being.

[Matt77]

Oh alright, my turn
I'm in need of an extra few % in volume (Shobet's fault)
I've ordered a Roadstar 36 Mondiale from Martin
It's going in the existing case of the 18w head I have for one reason or another.

I don't believe you have only thing planned Dave!
At least not for long

[tomjackson]

Ahh, so more of the same but with the EF86 channel as well.  I think 18 watts is great for getting good valve drive at decent level but with loudish band it will never quite have enough headroom, certainly by the end of the night anyway.

That will be a sweet amp!

[Matt77]

That's the plan. Still love the 18w but things move on.
Plus it's going to be powerscaled letting me use it at home.
You are welcome to have a go when it's ready. Probably be awesome for what you would use an amp for

[Roobubba]

Cripes, how do you guys cope?? I have a 120W 5150-II and it's just about right for keeping up with our monster drummer and bassist!

18W? Sheesh!

18W? Sheesh!

Don't worry Roo - they're just pussies...

(Mind you, if you were to play a man's geetar^TM, you'd find you'd only need 18W to clobber everyone else :lol:)

[horsehead]

We now know what matts is...but what have martin & dave cooking up?

[Twinfan]

Two words.

High.

Gain.
