AMT Pedals

[King_V]

Anyone tried or have AMT pedals before. Im curious if they are gd. Any reviews on their pedals would b nice.
I saw a vid Mattias IA uses Fatal Tube and it sounds like his signature sound even though he is playing thru a gorilla 35 watts amp and not his Laney which he plays direct.

Heard a strat being played thru an AMT a couple of times. Sounds very good - much better than standard Boss, Ibanez etc pedals. Davis stocks them here. They have the Du Hast (quite thrashy, powerful distortion) in stock now. I guess you have to order any other pedal since they never seem to have any in stock.

They are great sounding pedals. I used to own a fatal tube but sold it off and got a metallizer which I think is discontinued.

 

[crozzfire]

i kind of like the california sound pedal. sounds great to my ears.

 

[King_V]

How does the fatal tube sound compare to metallizer? Anyone tried the tube platinum before, it got a tube in it

 

[Paulo]

personally i prefer, AMT OD/DS pedals over Boss stock anytime. the Fatal Tube is a overdrive pedal that has tons of gain/sustain, while retaining its warm OD charachter.

Mattias' demo showed how a great player like him can get comfortable with the Fatal Tube. keeping in mind also, his wonderful guitar and amp complementing the pedal.

The Metallizer n Du-Hast (formerly Rammstein), are made for Metal.

the Platinum Tube has a very interesting tone (head down to davis, test, like it, buy).

edit - btw, i use the Fatal Tube in my setup at the House of Rock pub. axe is a POT loaded w/BareKnuckle Warpig pickups - running into a JCM800 head/cab 4X12.

i like the california sound pedal, but i called davis but they didn't have that pedal, couldn't even have a chance to try it. haha. fatal tube sounds great to me too, i might juz get it. its quite cheap anyway. haha

Fatal Tube is a great pedal, very tweakable..wish i could have gotten the fatal tube clone with two extra knobs to tweak..it's discontinued so i might never be able to try it

 

[crozzfire]

yeah it sounds great, gonna go down to davis to try it. u mean the fatal tube is discontinued?

 

[teleholic]

no the fatal tube clone..it's basically a fatal tube with two more knobs..one's mic simulation and another maybe cab can't quite remember..

Paulo, how much u bought it for?

 

[Paulo]

the amount i paid wont tally with dealers, coz i bought the Fatal Tube off a buddy (fellow softie), who wanted to try modded pedal combos. during that period, the pedal was out of stock, over a year at Davis. also, i run my amp semi-driven, the FT kicks in sweet

 

[guitarplayer]

someone i know is selling his AMT Fatal Tube. PM me if interested

 

[sepultura]

BTW how much do the Fatal Tube / Calif. Sound cost here in Sg? On many websites in the US they are listed at US$110-115.

i like the AMT california sound.

 

[Paulo]

what is played in the soundclips are sale strategic. the California Sound impresses, yes.

as for drive pedals above $200 range, i'd highly recommend to head down to mrmisse, and test-run the Crowthe Audio's Hotcake n Bluesberry pedals or the Mi-Audio Crunch-Box or Tubezone at Guitar77. its a good headache having more options.

 

[ShredCow]

Or the Skreddy Screwdriver and Top Fuel @ Malcolm's.

Then you'll want to buy the Gries amp too!

 

[Paulo]

yeah, after watching all those J Mc Coy demo vids on skreddy, i'd say a great pedal for blues-rock fuzz tones. just that its not my cup of tea, i'd rather stick to AMTs, still its an option for those looking out for pedals.

hoping janet is seeing this....davis should stock on this
