FLESHROT 200w
The plan since the beginning of THE has been to bring several of my ideas to fruition as full amp heads. What once was just custom tube builds and mods, has evolved into the creation of a killer solidstate platform thanks to modern class d power amp technology. Mix that new technology with my preamp designs and you have an absolutely punishing, lightweight small form factor weapon of destruction.
Based on the iconic Ampeg VH140C, the FleshRot sports several of my own mods that improve upon this legendary circuit. First is the addition of variable high pass and low pass filters that allow you to dial in the stock EQ settings, or with a couple turns you've opened up the top end and tightened the low end.
Next I focused on the Ultra Mid. While this is a great scoop control, I found it to interfere with the frequencies necessary for cut and more importantly to many of you, chainsaw tones. What started out as A.I.B. and I talking about changing the range of the scoop, I noticed with a couple tweaks you would be able to just pick your center frequency as needed for the Ultra Mid scoop. This is when things just became heavier than heavy.
