I was gonna get the Rage, but decided on the Fullbore instead. If I get back into jamming with people, and need a pedal for volume, then I'm gonna get a Mesa full Throttle. Those sound great at volume.

Won't get the new pickplate until after January. I decided to put a Duncan distortion in it. If it sound good, then i'm gonna get a new neck for it. The 24 scale with jumbo frets is real easy to play. So do you guys think anything is coming out at namm?

Have quilter amps been mentioned in this thread? Have been thinking one might be a good SS platform for pedals.

I think they may have been mentioned at HC.
Quality looks top notch, but for the price it would be more reasonable to get an AMT preamp and a power amp of your choice.

You can get a Quilter SS head for $549. It's a small unit and under 10 pounds. Built in 'murka.
AMT preamps vary between $274.95 and $549.95 and you'd still need a poweramp.
The AMT stuff is excellent but I'm not understanding the more reasonable bent, economic, physical arrangement, other.
Granted, good chance I misunderstand, please 'splain.

First I've ever heard of em. But I checked out their site, and they might work great. Too bad no stores around me would have em. Buying stuff like amps and guitars through the mail is scary now a days lol.

AMT Legend II are $169. Then this:

You say that like it's a bad thing but that's exactly what I'd want for a pedal platform. As for its clean tones they're pretty good for ss.

I have a truck load of drive pedals, too many to list, including, but not limited to ep booster, ac booster, bb pre, ocd, sheba, riot ...
Anyway, thanks for the info, good stuff. :beer:

I wasn't quite sure how the low gain 2nd channel sounds boosted (since the head is two channels), but super clean with a dirt pedal is always the way to go.
That micro head seems like the best option if you want a true two/three channel setup with a dirt pedal being the lead channel. I already have my tone from an AMT pre, but I want to try the new SL drive into that head.

Word. The SL pedal is sick (have seen too many vids, pryaxe's and kettner's being standouts), as is their new compressor. Fuck xotic and the tonal goodness anyway.
Back to the Quilter and pedals ... skip the first 2:17 and ignore the fact he's using a bit much delay to best appreciate the fuzz and overdrive samples but still sounds reasonable for pedal over ss.

The neck on this Douglas is crap, so I'm replacing it asap. The body with the Duncan sounds great, but the neck is just too "cheap".

Why not get a Quilter pedalboard amp?
Costa Mesa, CA (January 15, 2014)-- Loudly declaring the new reality of micro sized monster power, Quilter announces the all newTone Block 200 pedal board amplifier. The much anticipated release features a simplified feature set in a roughly double pedal sized package. The Tone Block 200 delivers a massive 200 watts to the speakers of the player’s choice and is small enough that they can fit right on your pedalboard. Quilter Labs has already taken over the stage with their MicroPro and Aviator Series and the Tone Block is already on several major international tours and in the studio with the Foo Fighters, Demi Lovato, Allan Holdsworth, Jennifer Batten, The Calling, After the Burial, Jake Owen, Mark Slaughter. Already it has more than proven its mettle.
The ToneBlock 200 has a simplified feature set with a single 1/4” input, gain, contour, calibrated master volume, and dual power outputs as well as Quilter’s proprietary direct out.
Specs:
Ultra-light weight: 4 pounds
Powerful tone: 200 watts
Flexible: Works with almost any impedance or even mismatched impedance cabs
Portable: Fits on your pedalboard
Rack Mountable: Available rack mounting kit for dual stereo rack mount operation
One world power supply: (Will work on any voltage, anywhere in the world.)
The ToneBlock 200 is shipping at the end of January and can be pre-ordered through Quilter’s dealers.
$399 MAP

Surprised Diezel didn't use tubes for that.
Waiting for Zerrer vs AMT D2 already.

That is seriously going to kick ass. Works with mismatched impedance cabs, scalable output, and selectable input impedance. You can plug a guitar straight into and run it perfectly clean with no breakup, unlike the EHX 44 Magnum. Perfect for dirt boxes. Also has an EQ curve so you can set it flat or cut a certain unwanted frequency and may eliminate the need for a loop EQ.

You guys ever try the Fender Mustang amps? They sound great imo. They just need to add a couple more high gain amps.

I was gonna buy some effects pedals, but I might as well just buy something like a Zoom g3. You guys ever try one? I like the 70crd, but you can cut the effects on and off with your foot on the 3. It seems simple and cheap for my needs.
