You have the single most beautiful guitar. I would do anything for that one good pick up. Purple is my favorite color and ESPECIALLY on my guitars. Thanks for always posting amazing up to date content.

[@rmbomb54]

You were 100% right about this thing, mine just came in today, and it’s a BEAST! Full of Tremontiliciousness! I bought this bc of your review so thanks man! Keep up the great content brother!

[@brandonmcvey9511]

This or engl special edition? Hmmmmm

[@Mikey__R]

Guitarists: I want an all tube amp! No transistors or microchips allowed! And I also want an onboard digital IR loader. I really like the look of this brutally straightforward amp. The bells and the whistles can be added with outboard gear; an amp should be simplified enough to be completely reliable over decades of use.

[@patfix]

Underrated riff 9:55. Amp sounds great!

[@porridgeorange]

New AguFish video YEEEEEAH!

[@joshmore7175]

I hear you with those AB3 cuts 👀

[@LucasLeCompteMusic]

Best demo of this AMP PEROID!

[@agufish]

🥰

[@fizzervc7264]

Honestly I think the middle channel is probably my favorite surprisingly

[@Alexanderzzzzon]

My first reaction when you started playing your song there at the beginning was "Holy shit, this has to be one of his best in-the-mix tones so far!". Sounded real killer my man! (As it always fucking does, you assh*le😆😆) Mark has been one of my all-time favorite guitar player even since stumbling upon the first Alter Bridge album. Never so much in Creed, don't really know why. His riffs and writing are just on another level!

[@randymccoy2527]

PRS MT series amps are so special. The MT-15 is incredible for it's size. Paired with a 1x12 slant Mesa it's literally the perfect middle ground chug box that can hang with a drummer

[@HoracioGarciaMusic]

Great demo! I just wanted to hear a bunch of AB riffs through it

[@juicethekidd9199]

Believe me or not I just met mark and he said he genuinely thinks this is one of the best amps ever

[@edr3761]

Nice job with all the tremonti riffs. Thats what i would play if i had an mt100

[@cblair9494]

Awesome demo man! Can't wait to try one for myself!

[@Jurrysnow]

best demo of this amp so far. great job man

[@bifm3651]

First time I’ve ever come across your channel and have to say this was an amazing review. Super clear and concise while also giving tons of RELEVANT examples for most of us Tremonti fanatics by playing clips of some of his greatest riffs across all channels. Seriously, top notch. You’ve gained a sub! I’ve been on a pre-preorder list at sweetwater as soon as Tremonti officially revealed the amp and am so glad I did. Can’t wait to get this thing in my hands in just a week or two!

[@mccloud273]

The MT100 is super nice, imagine if they came out with a MT412 The MT15 and MT112 on the gain channel on HALF POWER would fill an entire store if you turned the gain up past 7 o'clock (from my experience last month, at least) If that translated to the MT100 and if the MT412 became a reality, you could probably play an entire stadium without the cab being mic'd

[@agufish]

lmao the main tip PRS gave me for this amp was basically "be careful with the master volume"

[@wmxx2000]

This amp sounds great.

[@themog4911]

This has my attention!

[@MattyMorrison-cl3wh]

It should. This amp sounds massive

[@cwrichardson3]

Ok

[@Rikamortis6stringer]

Dude your intro with you overdubbing with those cleaner tones was EPSICK 🔥. This amp looks and sounds like it might be my go-to amp with the future!!!!🤘 It's got simple controls no MIDI, You can hook up two cabinets that are 16 ohm, hopefully they come out with a tremonti 4-12 angled and straight cabs. I like that the three channels are voiced a little bit different and the clean channel is quite a bit different. The samp looks like the go-to amp for old school junkies like me! 💯 PRICE LOOKS GOOD TOO. I think I'm in love with this one ✌️

[@GonJilman]

My lord… that amp is a chunky chonk for sure! Easily could be selling it for an absurd price but they still managed to keep it somewhat budget friendly…not my budget… but someone’s for sure lol! Definitely sounds amazing and honestly if they came out with a MT line of cabs with his speakers as well… what a rig that would make. As always thank you Hunter, as yours, kyles, fluffs, and Olas opinions are highly respected by myself lol

[@kagenotatsumaki]

I didn't even know this was a thing that was happening but as the MT15 is one of the best amps I've ever fiddled with in Guitar Center, I imagine a 100 version would be 7 1/2X better!

[@bodieanderson]

This sounds amazing! Great sounds coming from this one and it isn't too expensive win win!

[@Yoguy1107]

Love the variety of the guitars to show how well the amp meshes with the tones of the most popularly loved tones!

[@BuckB3420]

Love MT. Your a great mimic. Keep up the great jamming and videos. Alter Bridge- favorite band next too RUSH!

[@JonWilde]

Damn bro i can tell that shorts have brought your channel a ton more subs man! good to see!

[@misforyoutube8452]

Quite an amp, NGL. Any news on your new signature guitar? I'm keeping an eye on the baritone model you have been teasing.

Great video, thanks. :) BTW your Thomann link redirects to the MT15.

[@PapaSancho666]

Now that is one damn nice amp!

[@sinakaedwards2009]

Dude, I have always said the musicians in creed were way better than most give them credit for. I have a couple of suggestions. First, this one is easier to explain. I think you should do a metal version of the Tom Delong guitar. Like your second signature if given the opportunity. Next, Try to convince them to do something similar to a Dave Mustain V. Their headstock for the Amorock series would look good on it. I like Dave's V, however I want one with just one pickup in the bridge. Anyways, your videos are top notch for info. Take care and good luck.

[@GreyMarano]

Ahhh ya think? It’s called Alter Bridge!

[@sinakaedwards2009]

@@GreyMarano Same people say that band sucks just creed with new singer.

[@sinakaedwards2009]

@@GreyMarano Mark Tremonti was also knocked on for looking preppy, I never saw it, just a dude that loved to play guitar and headbang is what I saw.

[@GreyMarano]

@@sinakaedwards2009 maybe AB first album because he wrote most of it for Creed! AB was a lot heavier, used many different tuning, two guitar players, different time signatures, more talented vocals! Nothing like Creed, even though Creed was way more commercial and had simpler songs for the masses! To say it’s Creed with another signer and they NEVER played one Creed song with Myles is just not a well thought out or factual statement!

Ordered a set of 6L6cls for my mt-15 😂 should be here tomorrow

[@bad1and1bad]

When does the 300W version come out?? Kidding.

[@CyberneticArgumentCreator]

It's a really dark full sound, it's not the biting aggressive 5150 turbometal sound. I think this is very much a rock/punk/alt rock amp disguised as a metal amp. It's made for full background rhythm that DOESN'T cut. Yeah, I'm sure you could bring it forward, but it doesn't naturally do it like a lot of other metal amps. Really really cool amp that does something different and has a ton of authority across the frequency range. It's nearly exactly my head sound, I'm surprised someone else like Tremonti has the exact same taste. What a cool dude.

[@Loicvers]

Hi what are the two guitars you are playing?

[@MattyMorrison-cl3wh]

Damn, Watch Your Words. Been a while since I’ve heard that 🤘🏻

Great. Thats what the master volume is for.

No nonsense amp that focuses on the most important part. The Tone!

[@TarnishedViking.]

[@ProudBostonian]

As someone who’s been shouting Mark “The Tremonster” Tremonti’s name from the rooftops since I first heard him in ‘97 when I heard Creed, I knew he was an AMAZING AND EXTREMELY TALENTED PLAYER!! 99% of people thought I was an IDIOT and literally would laugh out loud at me whenever we’d discuss who the best players were at any given point in time and I’d always put Mark’s name 2nd on my list behind Kirk Hammett and or James Hetfield (because Metallica was my favorite band of all time and still very well may be aside from a couple others that happen to include the man himself). Over a quarter of a century later it’s amazing to see how far he’s come and how many people now appreciate his music and his abilities both as a player and as a songwriter!!!

[@whatever6406]

how is the lead and clean channel compared to the mt15?

[@steves12strings]

This, the Archon mkii OR...Triple Crown 100? The Triple Crown is my favorite all time can-do-everything amp but this may be the next contender.

[@workingorder2189]

Any thoughts on the 83 Kramer Baretta reissue?

[@BillyRiffinDaTube]

is the noise gat enoisy like the archon? Even when prs claimed to fix it, it remains noisy. That's the only thing keeping me from the amp.

[@MrScrofulous]

I hate to say it but it kinda feels like the football hero running out onto the field just as. the janitor is locking up the gates.

[@CS-ru4xd]

😂

[@Sticky_Tea]

would be nice if it had midi, to switch with the 4 cable method, like with a Helix instead of having to have the footswitch on your board as well and having to press two buttons how hard would it have been to have the footswitch be a midi thing? it sounds great, but ease of use is also important

[@kevindie]

*_C O P E_*

[@ErikStone1]

Anything printed in the documentation or on the back of the amp as far as build origin? Are these U.S. made or overseas like the MT15 and Sonzera? They're priced over $1800, so I'm trying to figure out if the price is due to the lack of modern features, or if they're built overseas or not.

[@danielvelkovski3156]

Mark Tremonti said himself $1800. Wanted it under $2000. “Make it super affordable”. They deff could charge more. If only more were like him.

[@fireflame608]

Made in Indonesia. Personally don't care 🤷

[@michaelmenkes7233]

The price is $1850, which isn't bad for 100W, but its lack of features limit its functioning to me. It literally exists only for stage use. I'm sticking with my H&K Grandmeister 40.

[@MrGuitarmike2222]

It be nice if there was a built in gate!

[@resistorstudios]

I will buy it, and I wont be using it for the stage, ever. Ill be using it to record and the occasional garage jam. Its not rocket science.

[@michaelmenkes7233]

@@resistorstudios Its 100W and has no studio friendly features. This is also not rocket science. It is basic sound engineering though that you want to mic an amp at a level the mic does best at, which is not cranked to 11 with 100W going to your 4x12. I can just plug my Marshall or my H&K into the Tascam with Cab sim or IR in the DI, or mic either at their 40W settings or at lower attenuation. You're going to fight this beast.

[@michaelmenkes7233]

@@MrGuitarmike2222 The H&K gate is better than my MXR Smart Gate IMO. Its smarter.

[@resistorstudios]

@michaelmenkes7233 its a high gain amp with a master volume. Being studio friendly is inherent in the fact that its a modern high gain amp. You dont need to crank it to 11 to get a good sound from an amp where 99% of its tone is coming from the preamp... i never have any issues recording my amps at lower volumes. I have an uberschall....5150... jcm 2000.... elmwood modena, triple x. All sound great at low volumes through a REAL cab and is way easier than messing around with Di or IRs or any of that nonsense.

To me this amp sounds so dark and dirty... Like a sheet over the speakers kind of thing. It isn't my favorite.. The new Uberschall has days worth of gain too but sounds 100x better. I don't get it. Maybe it was the low tuning? Might be the 6L6 tubes? I don't know. I think the Bogner would be the better buy but it's also 2x as much.

Bro that sucks lol. What’s wrong with it out of curiosity?

[@riffstud93]

@@agufish first time it just died. I was jamming and no power, no lights, no sound, no tube glow, no hum. Every fuse I checked in that fucker was good, everything I know how to check with a multimeter was good, tubes were good (even though I don’t think they’d entirely kill the amp), power cable tested fine, I tried every outlet in my apartment. Just fucking dead. PRS said it was some kind of deep internal fuse short or some shit, fixed it, sent it back. Worked for a few months then the sound would drop out randomly but really bad when it did it. I got fed up with it and ended up jumping the fx loop with a patch cable and the sound cuts stopped but it was noisy as absolute fuck running it like that. Take the patch cable out and sound would cut in and out. Sent it back and they’ve had it a couple weeks now. Very annoying.

[@JohnWiku]

​​@@riffstud93The first issue is indeed very weird and a major failure, you got lucky nothing burned. The second issue is actually very simple, the FX loop uses switched jacks, meaning that if a cable isn't plugged, the jack itself is closing the circuit with its contacts, if these contacts are dusty/rusty, then you'll have an intermittent signal drop, just as you described. Clean the jacks with the proper spray, or simply plug a cable into them lots of times to dislodge the crap on the contacts. Lots of other amp brands suffer from this, Marshall amps are notorious!!
