NAD! This VHT logo has to go.

YES!

I love those amps...really amazing pieces of machinery.

I must now ask...still looking for a boost???

Lol! Nope!

Nice score!

Speaking of VHT logos...

If anybody ever comes across one of those original super-wide VHT logos from the early '90s, let me know. My Pittbull Classic needs one.

And this is the exact reason people should leave classic pieces of gear alone, instead of trying to change the look.
Years from now, nobody is going to want a classic VHT with a Fryette logo from another era.....or anything different.

I can't stand seeing missing logos, wrong logos, holes in the chassis, wrong knobs, fans installed, light shows installed, painted tolex, or anything else that devalues a good amp.

Leave that old VHT the way it is. If anything, just buy a Tuki padded cover for it.

Plus one.

Totally agree.

Really wish the previous owner hadn't rebadged this one. The logo size isn't even the same, so you can see where the glue was on either side of the new badge. Totally amateur hour.

I think he felt like some of the "exclusive cache" of his amp purchase was tarnished by VHT being a Chinese brand now. Like his old Fryette-era VHT was less desirable by association. Which struck me as pretty silly, since anyone who would know that would also know that the Pittbull is not now nor ever was some cheap import.

But whatevs.

Re: NAD! This VHT logo has to go.

I think I decided last night that was going to keep the VHT logo. It is what it is. It's a Fryette era VHT, and a damn fine one at that.

If I were to tell you guys that I paid $700 for this amp, with no footswitch. Would you tell me it was still a pretty good deal? A new footswitch for this amp is $150.

Re: NAD! This VHT logo has to go.

That's a damn good deal. I'd look into having someone make you a footswitch instead of Fryette - there's a guy on ebay that makes a bunch of footswitches that goes by Voodooman. He might not have something for you in stock, but drop him a line and I bet he can make something for you at a decent price.

Re: NAD! This VHT logo has to go.

Great deal, great amps and why be bothered by the Logo?? Did I miss something?

You can contact Steve about a footswitch, it is after all still one of his children!

If you don't want to do that there are plenty of guys that could build you a FS for it.

The logo thing started as a joke with a buddy of mine. We got on the topic of corksniffers when I was looking into buying the amp. I can't remember exactly what was said, but it was something along the lines of, "you better not show that thing off on the internet, the corksniffers will unite and tell you it's a POS because it says VHT and not Fryette." There is just a lot of that going on.

I know this is no cheap import.

Gotcha!

Forget that thought...anybody that knows good amps knows the real VHT!!!

In the world of high gain channel switcher the VHT Pitbulls are the last word IMO.
