I bought an og D120 back in the day for $600 and someone heard it from my rehearsal space and offered me $1200 for it like 3 days later. I miss that amp, but I still have an UltraLead and Sig:X so I’m doing alright in the Fryette department
@@KohleAudioKult it’s prettt much a deliverance on steroids. 3 channels, wattage selection, 3 additional voicing options per channel etc. But sometimes the simplicity of a single channel amp is really nice and seems a bit less compressed. I haven’t tried this second version yet but I’d bet the sig can get real close
I have some in an acoustic control 4x12 cab. They sound so good with every head I've used (Laney gh100l, acoustic 240, Randall Rg-80ph, Sunn Enforcer, EMC g-400).
After 20 years going trough all the classic metal amps (recto's, 5150 and equal amps, engl amps, etc.) I really start to like the Fryette/VHT amps. They are so unique, responsive and versatile. They are very nice to listen to at any volume or eq setting, which isn't the case with other amps imo. Very cool demo Kohle. Keep on exploring!
Thanks! I remember not being blown away by the first one back in the days, but there’s a good chance it just wasn’t the right thing for the project I was working on.
I went to an ISIS concert (3 guitar players, all using VHT/Frayette amps while downtuned to oblivion) many years ago when they played in a small club (some 400 people) during a weird alternative jazz festival. They didn't even bother with front of house for the guitars, just cranked their amps. It was one of the loudest concerts i ever witnessed. And i still crave that guitar sound, it was huge and utterly majestic.
23:40 This made me chuckle, remembering reading all of Steven's writings in the early 2000s (specificially the Mesa/Celestion OEM speaker that birthed the p50e).
Fryette is a incredible amp. My band used the Fryette Pitbull simulation to record our guitars and I dream when Line 6 adds Fryette amps in pod go or Helix to use live too. Great video Kohle!
Dude, you're an awesome guitar player. All your riffs are sweet! Cool video. I like that amp. That old school mid tone reminded me of cathedral, ethereal mirror.
Makes me want the amp even more now… my deliverance synergy module rarely leaves my syn2. Once you get your head around the eq and controls the sounds are amazing! Please a video on just the cab with the Fanes!
Since I got my Fatbottom (p50e), Sig X and now an old D120, I sold everything else… that Deliverance Cab sounds awesome, I‘ll keep an eye out! Danke für das tolle Video, ein separates Video vom Cab wäre super!
Had the original before loop and foot switch. A monster. I want the Deliverence 2 60watt after having sold it years ago before the loop and switching. It is Brutal and the KT88 power tubes are the best thing I have ever bought
amazing tones brother Brutal!!! Waiting for the new pitbull to come out i need two channels Love the cab too!! You sold me on it too. Love this setup really killer
All for a cab vid on that beast. What a great sounding amp! Loads of tone with only a few tweaks. Nice! Also wondering how that circuit responds to different boosts. Probaly a character difference mostly as the amp itself is plenty tight.
Great demo of this amp, there aren't so many.. I have the first one, it has a unique voice for sure. I use the same trick with gain 1. I have a clean boost pedal fully cranked to distord the preamp so I can lower gain 1 and get a tighter distorsion just with the amp itself. With active pickups you could even remove the tubescreamer.
the cab reminds me of the Hiwatt custom cab from the '70s. the Amp is it's own thing but mr. Fryette has been restoring several of those vintage amps from that era (bad mods do kill Tone)
Try something I used to do with old Ampeg and JCM800 amps. Turn the EQ down all the way. Turn the volume up until it is what you want to start with at a higher setting. Then bring your gain up in small amounts. Start adding kids and highs in small amounts. You will be amazed how much headroom and screamer detail you get. Everyone has different experiences. But it may open some possibilities
Cab? YES!!! Did you find it dry like most Fryette amps? I have zero issue with that. If i am having a rough time getting a part done, either clean AF or dry AF, practice some, then go back to regular scheduled programming.
Surprised how good it sounds using an Ibanez Tube Screamer. Never really been a fan of those pedals. The Walrus Iron Horse V3 is about the only (Distortion type) pedal I like. Thanks for the video. That is an outstanding amp.
Many thanks for the vid! I dont want to sound smart ass but the cab in the vid is not a FatBottom but the newest Deliverance Cab. Because of the Fane speakers; i use onyl the Fryette PowerLoad IR for recording and there for 98% the IR with the FatBottom with P50s. I´m still little pissed off that there is only one P50 IR inside. Grüße aus Franken!
@@KohleAudioKult Yes, yes! This is my information too. But my point is that the cab in your vid is not a Fat Bottom cab. Curious how you like the PLIR. Best.
I tried the module two years ago and preferred (and kept) the Pittbull instead. Can’t remember why though and I can’t say how it compares to the full amp either.
@KohleAudioKult This was the question I was gonna ask. I'm looking to grab a Synergy SYN-1 with a module as part of a Sweetwater bundle, but they offer a "call us and discuss" option and I'm severely lacking in high gain stuff (I have a Joyo Jackman II and a Jet City Picovalve and was planning on running the SYN-1 into the Jackman II through my 2x12 for the high-gain stuff) so open to suggestions... whether this is viable for recording, what module would be best for a high-gain module in this setup w/a DV-77 and Fryette P50E in the 2x12? It's asking a lot, the bundle I'm looking at is the Soldano... but open to suggestions for high-gain modules...
Thank for another great vidéo ! Very intéresting the chapter you crank the power amp and finaly got less lowend pushing even....... The bass knob😮😮 Cab comparaison video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😂😂😂
So nice! I love how you can make it sound really old school. Just a question, since it is essentially a traditional single channel amp, how does it clean up with guitar volume? Thanks for the amazing review.
I wonder how you would approach the Laney Ironheart, as I find it has less gain than what a lot of high gain amps have on tap. It’s also a relatively affordable amp.
It's a sick sounding amp, too expensive for me but random thought I feel like the character of it could fit nice with an HM-2 style pedal for like some Knocked Loose or Swedish Death Metal type tones, I'd be interested to hear what that might sound like.
You built those resonators/corner bass traps? Any advice or tools/resources? Would be very appreciated. Thanks as always to show us great guitar tones!
wow great sounding amp and cabinet! I would like a video about the cabinet for sure! I am curious what power amp do you use to power the Amphion studio monitors you have? Thanks very much!
I like it! While I found the VHT Pittbull amps way too dirty in the preamp section clashhing against the power amp (which itself is excellent) but it was like; who''s gonna pay 3000 for a GRUNGE amp?? OK, 30 years later and this is the shit Man! A monster Metal-Machine to crush knucklebones, tear limb from limb, or crunch the craniums of your enemies!!
It’s funny. I remember trying the first Deliverance during the soundcheck for a Benighted record 15 years ago and didn’t enjoy it that much back then. Either the amp or me or both of us have changed.
Pittbull's sound best if you keep the channel volumes low and crank the global master up to 1 o'clock. Otherwise yeah they get kinda ratty, cause the channel volume can clip the EQ circuit.
on Power Amp Saturation - I have an old Laney (1985) that sounds perfect with everything at 6 (about 1 o'clock as some would say). Too high and it gets flubby, too low and it doesn't sustain enough.
Hey Kohle! Liege ich richtig, dass du die Sounds die du einstellst ja quasi immer über deine Studio Monitore in deinem Regieraum hörst? Also quasi immer eine Amp+Cabinet+Mikrofon (preamp + Studiomonitor) Kombination, richtig? Würdest du sagen, dass sich der eingestellte Sound in deinem Liveroom nicht zwingend immer so gut anhört als ob du ihn im selben Raum einstellen würdest? Gruß, Max
I wonder if the deliverance is voiced more to work with the FANE F70G, compared to the V30 I've heard this speakers are a little more fizzy on the top and a little more scooped especially in the high mids. Though then some find it really dark so hmmm. We just need a pitbull now.....
Alright. I gotta pause. The difference between the Brunetti and Frayette amp is crazy. But isn't the Frayette to "loose" or rather "raw" (?) for having it in a mix. I definitely prefer the frayette sound by itself but I feel like this tone would be a mess in the mix.
@@KohleAudioKult yeah I figured that out as I finished the video. I shouldn’t comment before the end of the video lol. Would love to see the cab video as well! Love your cab and speaker videos.

How’s the Sig X? Never heard that one.
@@KohleAudioKult it’s prettt much a deliverance on steroids. 3 channels, wattage selection, 3 additional voicing options per channel etc. But sometimes the simplicity of a single channel amp is really nice and seems a bit less compressed.

amp is cool but the cab sucks
We DO need a separate cab video! 🤩
Yes please! Cab video, please!
Noted! 🫡
Aaron Turner from Sumac/Isis/Old Man Gloom has been using this as his main amp for years, glad to see it’s getting more love.
This amp brings the Acid Bath vibes. I love it!!
yes
Ouuuuuuuhhhhh yeahhhh
Superb Amp! Thanks for the great demo!
This guy knows how to discuss amps and provide examples and comparisons. Hardly anyone else does that
Thanks man! 🤘❤️
100% want to see a fane70 video!
I have some in an acoustic control 4x12 cab. They sound so good with every head I've used (Laney gh100l, acoustic 240, Randall Rg-80ph, Sunn Enforcer, EMC g-400).
The best explanation and demo of this amp I've seen to date. Thanks dude!
Great to hear that! Thanks!
Back in '91 I had both the original VHT Pitbull Classic and Ultra-Lead heads. Both were great Power Metal and Thrash Metal amps. Tight and punchy.
Indeed!
After 20 years going trough all the classic metal amps (recto's, 5150 and equal amps, engl amps, etc.) I really start to like the Fryette/VHT amps. They are so unique, responsive and versatile. They are very nice to listen to at any volume or eq setting, which isn't the case with other amps imo. Very cool demo Kohle. Keep on exploring!
Thanks man! Great to hear you enjoyed it
More of everything that made the first deliverance stick out in a good way. Great breakdown on how to control this beast.
Thanks!
I remember not being blown away by the first one back in the days, but there’s a good chance it just wasn’t the right thing for the project I was working on.
Holy shit! It's a monster. That low end was incredible. Some serious balls there! Nice demo man. Thanks for sharing it!
Ive got a Sig X and a series II Feliverance 120. Ive had lots of other amps too but the Fryette stuff is something else.
Wow, loved the amp and the video! Those tones were absolutely brutal. Rock on 🤘🔥🧡🔥🤘
You make everything sound inspiring, but this amp sounded amazing. Video on the cabinet!! 100%
Perfect guitar to test this beast of an amp!
Wonderful sound!...Your new guitar has some crazy and juicy low notes that i absolutely love!...And the Fryette slays🔥🔥🔥
One of my all time favorites. And you are correct, it’s so loud. If you’ve never heard one in person before it’s kind of shocking how loud it is.
I never heard one in person because it was so loud it made me deaf 😢

I’ve liked it since the OGs. Been on my list to get one I didn’t realize they had the II model out 😊
23:40 This made me chuckle, remembering reading all of Steven's writings in the early 2000s (specificially the Mesa/Celestion OEM speaker that birthed the p50e).
The tone you got for the intro/outro track was the best you’ve ever done. I would say keep the amp!
Fryette is a incredible amp. My band used the Fryette Pitbull simulation to record our guitars and I dream when Line 6 adds Fryette amps in pod go or Helix to use live too. Great video Kohle!

It is Brutal and the KT88 power tubes are the best thing I have ever bought
Dude, your riffing has become commendable.
Aw man... I can feel the GAS buildung up already
It’s all right. Nothing you can do about it. 😜
Great video! The Fryette gear is unique, clear and Awesome!
both tones are fantastic, but that 2nd one..wow right up my street as a mix engineer
This is one of the more deserving review for D120. The amp plays like nothing else out there.
Reminds me of a higher drive/more distorted JCM 800. It isnt super scooped like American amps.
I definitely want to see a video about the Fryette cabinet with the Fane speakers!
Looks like there are even two different Fryette cabs with Fane speakers. I’m excited!
amazing tones brother Brutal!!! Waiting for the new pitbull to come out i need two channels Love the cab too!! You sold me on it too. Love this setup really killer
Nice amplifier and CAB! I want one more video about somethings form Fryette
Still got the load box here 🫡
Great video. Great sounding amp!
🤘🏽😈🤘🏽
Thank you 🙏🏻

@@KohleAudioKult Yeah :) One single-channel amp but, as you said in the video, the dual gain controls offers many tone options!
One of my favorite amps.
0:55 HE GAVE ME MOOOORREEEEEE
Love to see a more in depth cab video
That Fryette is so cool… at the same time that guitar is siiiiick man!

the cab reminds me of the Hiwatt custom cab from the '70s. the Amp is it's own thing but
mr. Fryette has been restoring several of those vintage amps from that era (bad mods do kill Tone)

What else can be better than a good "Chugga Chugga" on a Sonntag Morgen? Genau...nothing else 😅

I never went for any „fancy tube screamer replacement hype“ 🤓. The good old 909 just delivers when it comes to tightening up high gain amps.

19:17 - this would probably sound killer in the mix!!
Sounds amazing! To me like Marshall tone but without high frequiencies rattle
Great vid! When can we expect the Hapas pickup shootout? I need that video...
This amp is on my “to buy” list. It will sit nicely with my pittbull 100.
Holy crap good demo. Sounds freakin insaaaane. SUBBED
Welcome!
Dream amp right there

Inhad the deliverance v1 120 and muliple ultraleads. I always had the mid, Presence, highs and bass all at 3 o'clock.
What are your thoughts on the SYNERGY DELIVERANCE module vs this actual amp? Both designed by Fryette himself. Can that be a video?
I tried the module two years ago and preferred (and kept) the Pittbull instead. Can’t remember why though and I can’t say how it compares to the full amp either.

Killer amp, killer tone. Yes make a Frayette cab video please. Maybe how does it fair against a Mesa Oversized🤷♂️
That would be the plan!
Great video and a great amp. Reminds me of my earforce in terms of thickness and depth and also the master volume seems to react quite similar.
Haven't heard the word "Earforce" in a long time.
😅 Yeah, Henrich stopped his business more than 10 years ago. My amp is about 20 years old and still my favourite.

@@KohleAudioKult looking forward to that😎
I always had a VHT deliverance 120, still regrett selling it.
Always wanted to try out the 60w version but so hard to find in the UK....
Sounds great but we need a Kohle Album. F!?K dude! Great riffs, 1000% Would buy
Haha! Long way from good riffs to a good album though.
But thanks! ❤️🤘
the tonestack just cuts frequencies before hitting the gain stages, so everything dimed will give you more gain.
Exactly
on Power Amp Saturation - I have an old Laney (1985) that sounds perfect with everything at 6 (about 1 o'clock as some would say). Too high and it gets flubby, too low and it doesn't sustain enough.
I wan't to hear this amp with different cabs and the cab with different amps. Time to put that amp switcher to use ;)
Would like to hear it through a Mesa V30 to have a more familiar frame of reference.
I think the difference is totally neglectable. Everything about this amp you see in this video will work exactly the same way with a V30.
Hey Kohle!
Liege ich richtig, dass du die Sounds die du einstellst ja quasi immer über deine Studio Monitore in deinem Regieraum hörst?
Also quasi immer eine Amp+Cabinet+Mikrofon (preamp + Studiomonitor) Kombination, richtig?
Würdest du sagen, dass sich der eingestellte Sound in deinem Liveroom nicht zwingend immer so gut anhört als ob du ihn im selben Raum einstellen würdest?

Wouldve been cool to hear this amp through a cab that isnt stock, and compared to a 5150 or something similar :-)
Man this is a great video! what camera did you use?
I always use my BlackMagic Studio cameras
Love this amp, but it sounds so buzzy and thin here. I don't know what speakers are in that cab, but not my thing...
I wonder if the deliverance is voiced more to work with the FANE F70G, compared to the V30 I've heard this speakers are a little more fizzy on the top and a little more scooped especially in the high mids. Though then some find it really dark so hmmm.
We just need a pitbull now.....
More more more!!! Quad Cortex capture?
Don’t have one!
Kemper Profile? 😜
It’s hard to hear the bass tone and Depth control increase with the distortion engaged on my tv and iPad.
Better use a full range monitoring system or headphones
Perfect name for the amp. Cool stuff, and I'm a drummer (and the world's most frustrated guitarist. No Dave Grohl here. lol).
Haha! Great comment. 😂
Alright. I gotta pause. The difference between the Brunetti and Frayette amp is crazy. But isn't the Frayette to "loose" or rather "raw" (?) for having it in a mix. I definitely prefer the frayette sound by itself but I feel like this tone would be a mess in the mix.
In a mix it’s always a different story.
That’s why I said the Brunetti might be easier to integrate. But it depends on the music as usual
@@KohleAudioKult yeah I figured that out as I finished the video. I shouldn’t comment before the end of the video lol. Would love to see the cab video as well! Love your cab and speaker videos.
🔥
💪🤘🔥🔥🔥
What the heck is any of these amp worth if you gotta stick a 2 dollar clipping circuit in front of the amp? Something to think about
Why do you have to distort the beautiful sound of a guitar in the first place? 🤓
It’s always about what sounds good. Not what’s expensive.
Cab compare vid please
