Submariner85 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Any word on their stuff? Just found out that my wife was a classmate of Mike Fortin at Westside Elementary and Mainland High School in Daytona. Small world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velorush Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This model sounds most excellent (from a decidedly low-gain guy): BONES As the name implies the BONES amp is just that, a stripped down “bare bones” amplifier. With modern styling and a simple & intuitive front panel layout, BONES is extremely versatile and completely inspiring from the first note played. It retains all the detail of your instruments and playing dynamics as well as front-end coloration from stomp box pedals. FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS World Mains 100/110/120/220/230/240 VAC 50/60HZ VOICING L/M/H selects between 2, 3 or 4 stages of gain 4 – BIAS locking pots and test points 4 – 12AX7s (1 -12AT7 FX Loop) & 4 – Power tubes in any combinations of EL34, 6CA7, KT77, 6L6, 5881, KT66, 6550, KT88, KT90, KT100. Class-AB, 100 to 180 watts RMS Fully regulated DC preamp heaters for an ultra low noise floor Optional FX LOOP, LINEOUT w/ Level control Marriage of PCB and Point-to-Point assembly $3,499.00 USD Gigantically out of my price range, but if money were no object, this looks great. Love the thought of selecting between 2, 3 or 4 stages of gain and using power tubes in any combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Submariner85 Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 I don't know if someone is playing tricks or what but she said he's in this photo and commented on it. And when you click on his name and go to his facebook page it says CEO of Fortin Amplification. Not trying to make things up. I believed it. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200969510135262&set=a.3196868675906.149505.1091640837&type=3&theater https://www.facebook.com/FortinAmplificationII?fref=ufi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Shark Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I play softball with a guy that played with Vince Carter at Mainland. I'm the accountant for an attorney in Daytona Beach that went to Mainland. Not sure how that helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
