I'll get pics up tonight! She's a beauty.
Can't afford a MKV. I wish I could. I'll
give an easy hint. The back panel says
"Hand built by rockers in the USA". :lol:

mark V????

First hint its not a Mark anything because he posted it in the Amps section. :mrgreen:

Thats what it says on the back of my VHT Pittbull!

Which model did you get??

 

[boogietone]

It's a VHT 50/12. It is the combo version of the 50/ST which I used to have.
It's a 2X12 combo. 50 watts, EL34's. 4 12AX7's and 1 EF86 for the tube driver.
It also has rectifier tube GZ something, I'll have to look again for that one.
2 channels. An incredible clean channel! OMG! And the lead channel which is
killer. Not as high gain has most the Steve Fryette VHT's are like the UL, CLX,
CL. It's amount of gain has been described as a boosted JCM800. I love this
thing. I have thoroughly regretted selling my 50/ST. There are few differences.
The biggest is no graphic EQ. Sounds awesome without it. And to my surprise,
no master volume! My 50/ST had one so I was shocked. Doesn't matter at all
I just didn't even think to look for it till I got it. It has class A and AB. Parallel
or serial loop. Assignable reverb. Boosts on both channels. Selectable rectifier
or solid state. The EFX loop also can act as a master volume but I think I'll get
a Hotplate. Sounds killer with strats in any position and just as good with humbuckers!
Killer amp for sure! Has adjustable bias as well and can take EL34's or 6L6's.
Which amp do you have TimeSignature?

 

[boogietone]

Nevermind TimeSignature. I see it in your sig. 50CL.
Love to get my hands on one of those to!

 

[TimeSignature]

Very cool man.

I was messing with my VHT today. They sound killer LOUD!

 

[fishyfishfish]

You guys and your fancy tube amplifiers. URGH!

 

[soundchaser59]

Nice!

There was a 100 watt VHT head here for sale, used mint. I walked away to think about it. Went back a couple days later, it was gone.

Kickin myself for that..... great sound!

 

[boogietone]

Yeah, I really dig Fryette/VHT amps. Great sound and reliability. Lots of features. I've seen a few more 50/12's pop up for sale recently on Ebay. I'd like to try one of their high gain amps like a CL, UL but no one around here carries them. The SigX seems pretty cool to.

 

[TimeSignature]

I'd love to play a sigX, havent found one yet though. The reviews and sound clips Ive heard were all good.
