Members Zozobra Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 On the schematics.... If you post high res gut shot photos of an amp using tag board construction and people have a fair idea that its going to look like an or/mat then I'm surprised that it has taken this long for someone to reverse engineer it. People have reverse engineered much more complicated amps than this from lower quality photos and some of the amps have used multilayer PCBs! The fact that Joel got pissy at the dude can only mean that the schematic is fairly accurate so he really dropped the ball there. There isn't anything amazingly unique in there really. It has a few differences from a GT-120 bar the additional gain stages such as using an FMV tone stack rather than a james/baxandall. I'd wager its more akin to a GT-1 but I haven't seen a schematic of one of those and I doubt one is going to turn up any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cliff Fiscal Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 I really, really don't think the Matamp GT1 has a problem with gain considering these are all direct guitar --> amp: I wasn't saying they don't have a lot of gain.....especially when cranked up hot......I'm just saying to get really *brewtal* you'll have to use a pedal to get it to Electric Amp levels. I've heard all of your clips, and the GT1 doesn't have those levels of gain available. I would say the middle video is the most representative of what I hear from mine. Good old classic generic stoner tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Russian Hammer Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Russian Hammer, did I ever tell you that I find your nickname and the fact that you're running an Electric amp - too much of an ironic coincidence? No you haven't but thank Fred! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it's like the first Black Matamp GTO made that Mike from YOB used... Except the knobs are labelled differently and mine is a MVU and his wasn't.

Members nightterrors Posted April 6, 2012 Members Share Posted April 6, 2012 Did anyone else see the Green MV120 with matching 4x12 that the deftones posted on EBay that went for $3550.00? Crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ::fred:: Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 Not that crazy if you break it down.. A Green MV120 could easily go for $2200$700 for the cab$650 for deftones' mojo somth like that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BAXANDALL Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 New to me Diabolical Destroyer 75 is up and running today! Excuse the head shell as it will most likely be replaced. What an amazing sounding amp. I was told that it was designed for KT100s but I am running 6550s right now and it sounds beautiful.

Members some_dude Posted June 11, 2012 Members Share Posted June 11, 2012 The V1 is usually the one closest to the amp's input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 100 watt Posted June 11, 2012 Members Share Posted June 11, 2012 Not an owner. Just a user. My Broe owns a early 70's Orange GRO 50 and an early 70's OR120. Both stock except the head sleeves. (The GRO has a black sleeve made by Matamp & the OR has a non original Orange sleeve.) both brutally loud. I use them mixed with various Marshalls.
