New BOOGIE Day!
Been playing my little Subway Rocket Combo out for many years and adore the little amp.
Well its cousin was sitting in a local shop today a absolutely PRISTINE F 30 short head with the footswitch.
Cut a deal on her and just cleaned out the pots ect and dropped a fresh set of the New Sensor short plate Mullard 12 AX 7's. First off this thing was absolutely MINT inside I mean just super clen I doubt the chassis had ever been out of it!
GREAT cleans and man did those new preamp tubes knock the noise out and fatten up the gain side.
This is no metal monster but man is it a sweet little blues and rock amp!
May sell the little MT 15 as it's just to much at times. Hard to control at low volumes sounds fantastic for fluid leads but you cant get the in between tones with it. I have the Archon and adore it but the MT 15 is to much brutal on the gain side for what I am trying to do with it. Cleans on both it and the F 30 are fantastic different but both VERY good. The F 30 also has a blend on the loop and a footswitcable solo boost. I am running the MT 15 as my Church amp and this little Boogie fits what I'm doing so much better!
Sounds a LOT like my little Subway Rocket as it is the next generation from this little Subway and is why I grabbed it!!

The little F 30 is pretty much a head version of my little Subway Rocket here with full EQ control of both channels and a great built in spring reverb! Wanted this tone in a small head for a LONG time!!

There is nothing like exactly what you want

Yep have always been blow away with the tones in the mix with my little Subway in recording but never been able to get them with my other Boogies. This one seems REALLY close so--.
Adore the PRS amps in particular the Archon head and it's not going anywhere. But for what I'm doing most of the time the MT 15 is just to much. To aggressive and compressed and is impossible to control at low volumes. If some one wants a real little face melting metal monster with a great clean my MT 15 will be on the block for $600 to you guys in the next few days. Put the little Boogie on my low interest card and don't want to carry the balance so--.

I don't know much about the F30- what's its thing? I love my Mesa, a Blue Angel, but I have little experience with most of the other models.

I own an F100 Combo, great amp!

I must have gotten lucky with my MT-15. It slays at any volume and I can get it almost whisper quiet.

CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW AMP!!!!!!!

My MT 15 sounds fantastic and yes I can get it low but it's a fight with the taper on the Volume Pot. I needed a little less saturated crunch side more of a vintage rock tone. Jury is still out on the little Boogie though as cleans are fantastic but I'm fighting the voicing on the Crunch side . One of those sounded great in the Shop (and I looked at and played it a number of times on the floor with several different guitars) then doesn't cut it in the real world for me so far. Having the Archon and the MT 15 with that incredibly expressive liquid crunch side has spoiled me forever!
Have all 3 heads here at the house right now as am doing maintenance on all of them. Here is a photo.

Chassis of the Archon talk about build quality!

I can't wait for the MT-100 to come out. That amp is going to be a beast!

What is that?

 

[Bogner]

What is that?

The MT-100 is the Mark Tremonti 100 watt signature amp that they (PRS) have been working on forever.

Ahhh...haven't heard about that one.

It's an enigma...lol. You hear a lot about it for a bit then nothing. I really was expecting it to be released at the PRS thing they did a few weeks back or so. They went dark on amps all of a sudden so I am not sure about the timing. I know Mark has been testing prototypes and has been happy with what they came up with for some time now. Hopefully it drops no later than Summer NAMM.

Don't know what's going on with PRS amps right now as the new products listing is only showing the import amps and the DG. Archon is gone Custom line is gone. I quizzed the CS rep I dealt with on it and he would tell me noting but an announcement was coming on a redo of the amp lines so??

Expect the hype to come for Summer Namm build up. They are spitting out some Archons here and there to various places if people are still on the hunt. They go fast!
