    The Suhr PT100 is the signature model of session guitarist and tone connoisseur Pete Thorn. The 100W, three-channel amp is hand-wired and features six 12AX7 preamp tubes, four EL34 power tubes, MIDI connectivity, a series/parallel effects loop and a four-button footswitch.
    “The PT100 was born when John Suhr asked me, ‘What are you doing using three amplifiers at once?’” says Thorn. “I was using one amp for clean tones, another for my dirty rhythm sound and I’d switch in yet another head for leads. John said, ‘This is crazy. Let me make you an amplifier where you can get all your sounds out of one head.’ So, the PT100 has a great, American-style clean sound derived from our favorite, old-school amps from Fullerton, California. Channels 2 and 3 are modded versions of favored plexi-style amps from England. The prototype amp was very close right off the bat, but I kept refining it with John, taking it on tours and playing hundreds of shows with it.”

      I think I’d love to have one. Pete’s tone is always great. I think Ian Thornley uses one also and he always has great tone as well.

    I haven't missed a Pete Thorn video in 12 years and I still never knew the PT 100 had that many """"features""""". I have to say it's the very best overall amp I have ever seen. Over the years what you hear on a Pete Thorn demo you can bank on with your life!!! I'm going to now look at the specs on the PT-15 . Killer Video Pete!! Tobi rules tee heeeeeee

    The PT 100 sounds amazing, and I’m loving Pete Thorn’s presentation! The only problem is that this video was so inspiring that I kept playing guitar and had to rewind the video about 15 times. Well done. Get Pete Thorn a raise!

    Great to see Pete doing a new video for this amazing amp.
    I have a PT-100 and absolutely love it. There is not a bad sound in this amp. Channel 2 has so much gain variation that you can basically get it to sound like JMP all the way to higher gain Marshalls. You will never need a gain pedal with this amp unless you want one. One thing I really love about this amp is the amp sounds great even at quieter volumes. Master volume retains amps tone when turned down.
    I use the head with the matching PT 2x12 cab which has 75 Creambacks and it sounds like you are using a 4x12.
    Worth every penny 🔥🔥🔥

    The only criticism that I have of this amp is that so many of the controls are on the back, when there's so much space unused on the front panel.

    • @PeteThorn
      @PeteThorn 12 днів тому +4

      Hi! If there's a control in the back- it's always for a reason, usually tonal- like, John won't want to run long wire runs or traces all the way to the front, for a certain reason pertaining to what the control does. The controls on the back such as feedback and depth are usually set and forget, I find. Hope that explains!

    • @notasilicaanimus
      @notasilicaanimus 12 днів тому

      @@PeteThorn thanks for the explanation. I find myself often wanting to compare the effects of feedback and presence with those of the front panel controls on mine, hence the comment, but if it would have an impact on tone to move them to the front then fair enough. Great demo btw.
