This amp completely flew under my radar. Looks and sounds sick! Nice choice of speaker too. The K100 was and is underrated

[@KDH]

So sad they discontinued the K100 :(

[@TheOtherJohnBrowne]

Oof. 4599€ is a bit of a punch to the gut though

[@TheOtherJohnBrowne]

​@@KDHAgree!

[@ColbyJohnson303]

@@KDH I'm pretty sure it was the T100 they discontinued

[@GCKelloch]

Lotta 3kHz in the K100, and not much 4kHz+ chime. Very metallic sounding, if that's what you like, and the 3kHz is piercing compared to speakers with a dip there.

[@Clinthopanonymous]

thank you for actually playing it for a few mins. unboxing vids where people dont at least plug it in always drives me nuts.

[@unduloid]

I am sure your cat is very happy with that big box!

[@GuitarJawn]

I love the large channel buttons :)

[@The_blue_Manc]

Looks awesome. Just a shame 95% of the guitar community can’t afford that price tag

[@elspanoo]

95% is optimistic haha

[@highpraise-highcritic]

$4000 is pricey , but for all that it covers and potentially replace, it seems pretty affordable. A number of musicians have a good amount of gear capital from years of collecting and GAS to use if they really wanted to move into amp. So maybe 93% 😆

[@wolfgangdevries127]

Ok think I'll stay with my €27 amp then 😊

[@NedJeffery]

How much is a Mesa MkVII these days?

[@highpraise-highcritic]

@@NedJeffery, hahaha our minds went to the same amp

[@KarlKarsnark]

Sneaking up on 100k SUBS too!

[@KDH]

Slowly getting there

[@christopherhorton4634]

This is literally a "do it all" amp. You can get any tone out of it seemingly. It has options like a modeler, or a BOSS Katana. Without having to hook it up to your computer or tablet. Very cool, K. You should use that crunch sound on a WALKER tune!

[@weschilton]

It will outlast any digital hooohah too!

[@christopherhorton4634]

@@weschilton Definitely more repairable. Which is a problem in our industry. Being able to repair products is going out the window these days.

[@MercutioUK2006]

Michael Nieslen did a feature on this a little while back, absolutely amazing piece of kit. Looking forward to a "Full" full review 🤣

[@daniel_naaden]

Hands down the best amp I've ever played. If I ever get the opportunity, it'll be just this forever! Great video, chief!

[@jameslewis2635]

Channel 3 to Channel 4 sounded like the difference between rock and metal. With all these different channels for different levels of overdrive this seems like the amp for the guy who is tired of tripping over all the distortion pedals he has to scatter all over the stage. It seems like there is loads of flexibility and I can see something like this being very handy in a studio.

[@markdeloria20]

When I watched your NAMM coverage, this amp stood out to me. After seeing this video (being not too in-depth), I really want this amp. I imagine after watching your upcoming in-depth video, I (along with many others) will likely buy this amp.

[@BigMuff520]

Love that thing. I’ll look for the full review!!!

[@ChristofferKeizer]

I dig it. Very nice sounding amp and pretty solid feature set. Great "mini" review, sir, thanks.

[@johnhmaloney]

The amp sounds great, I'm looking forward to the full review. Btw, as a Gen Xer who was a big hair metal fan back in the day, it was really nice to hear you play a bit of In My Dreams.

[@75YBA]

Congrats boss!👍

[@jumpbackgeno]

I'm digging this thing wow, very Interested. Thanks

Great job on the Dokken at 8:00. In My Dreams is a killer riff.

[@everydayperson764]

Oh my.....i may have try one if i see it. Good review as always 👌

[@neilfenderlover1]

For a metal guitarist, that amp is probably all you'll need. I'm sure it's way more versatile than that and I look forward to the deep dive video. Very impressive, hope they do well

This is excellent!

[@akibakemono]

Cool amp. I like the chunky aesthetics. Very similar to my Engl Invader 2, which also is a 4-channel high gain amp with gate, solo, and 2 effects loops.

[@espn1337]

You know an amp is good when i remember it from a namm video months ago! Really like the sound of it

[@matthewf1979]

Zuta builds some great amps. The guy knows his tones and he knows how to build a modern amp. The less complicated two channel models are very easy to work on too. They’re not inexpensive, but you get a lifetime piece of gear that should last like a 50’s/60’s Fender.

[@Mar33322]

Have a few pedals made by ZUTA and they are great . Sweet amp !

[@AnimalJohn85]

Thats an incredible amp! Would be too much for my feble brain. Crackin vid sir :)

[@DrMurdercock]

it looks like the interior of a Buick. Super simple, giant labeling and made for old people

[@esmoroglu]

This is such a transparent and fair demo for what also caught my attention. The very kind builders also let me know that it is well servicable by amp doctors anywhere in case it needs to be. Great playing and fun demo, thank you very much. Thinking seriously about this amp for the future.

[@countzero5150]

That's a big one. So many amps now use proprietary parts from companies that would rather see that amp in a dumpster than on a technicians work bench. I won't even consider an amp if I can't work on it. To quote Louis Rossman, "Schematics or die."

[@Gary-xm6gc]

Love it 🤘 Definitely a shredders amp.

[@BOATIE141]

ZUTA and Lichtlaerm Audio are on my wishlist this year

[@AndrewAHayes]

I half expected this to be voiced for thrash metal with massive mid-scoops which is the exact opposite of what I play, I was pleased to see that it covers many styles of guitar and a lot of control. I don't think I have seen a new rack mount amp that I liked since the '90s, not for me though as I don't use amps very much these days and if I do its my 1973 WEM Dominator MKII as I don't have a modelled version of it

[@sadsismint]

Those buttons... they sound like bandit machine buttons... which are very satisfying!

[@darrylwalker1867]

Wow, fantastic.

[@80s_kid]

[@D1rectedBy]

[@christmeister]

Reminds me of those old Steavens rackmount stuff, sounds sick!

[@DavidRafaelSutton]

I think it was always for your videos great video and I learned a lot from this video I now kind of have a much better idea of what kind of an amp and what I would listen to and enjoy more than another type of Van I've always heard the terms tied mid-range boost mid-range Trump but with all your different settings and your like with all the different settings that has there and stuff and you're describing it as you're playing actually taught me what I would be looking for in an amp in the future instead of just buying something based on a term that I really didn't have a grasp on apparently so yeah thanks now I kind of know about like whether I like mid-range or not whether I like you know title loose or custom or not custom but vintage or modern or regular or whatever the hell so thanks this was a great learning video for me and and thank you plus you play really cool you're a good guitar player for sure and I say that actually you're a great guitar player LOL sincerely Bob th😊😊😊

[@1tzelG_]

daaaaaaaang is so good and sounds so gooooooood it's so versatile woooooooow HOW MUCH THIS BEAUTY SON?

This thing is cool, never heard of the brand before. I think the two sets of tubes is an awesome idea.

[@deebojones]

Amp sounds amazing. So many features. Just wish I had the money for one right now.

[@jeffjolliereticulatedpytho5962]

[@shorerocks]

I still struggle with the rack amplifier optics. Mind you, I use a JMP-1 forever, and love it. Latest additions were a 8 channel SYNERGY system. Still... 🙂.That being said, the ZUTA specs reminded me of my beloved ENGL Invader 150, 4 channels, 2 effect loops etc. head. I agree, no one needs 150W, but it was on offer, and I fell in love with the 3rd channel sound. What I like about the ZUTA is the switchable gate per channel. Very nice indeed.

[@p1st0ls44]

sounds legit and different. i like it

[@user-xb5oy5tk2j]

A very cool bit of kit, it's clearly very capable (and could be what I'm looking for), but I'd be interested to know if you think it has a distinct tonal character. I look forward to the in depth review.

[@GregMerritt-ws8tq]

A Ruff guitar plugged into this beast.

[@PerJohansson-Xeizo]

Noctua-fan, probably quality components, nice touch! I would have no problem recommending for those with deep pockets. If being price sensitive, no way, you can get great sounds ten times cheaper but yeah ...

[@weschilton]

Its really impressive to see someone actually innovating on the tube amp. It sounds very versatile too. Lots of great tones in there. Bonus points for matching your guitar to the amp. Well played!🤣

Just a quick look at the features, its friggin 8 amps (4 modes x solo) times 3 power amp options, and with the ability to turn on and off the main fx loop independently, thats 64 different options, and the price 4000 USD? Thats crazy wild!!!! Instant Wishlist!

I really appreciate all the gear reviews you've done. How do the amps hold up in the long run? Which ones do you still own and love? DV Mark? Grand?

[@DeadKoby]

Very interesting. Seems quite feature packed, without being heavily compromised. With anything compact, time will tell how it handles the heat, and if the boards stand up to time. No hate, but there's no real way to test reliability except to just use the heck out of it.

[@rollerdragon]
