As the owner of the first ever 100w CleanMachine II all I can say is I love this amp, FUCHS all the way, I use mine with the FUCHS 2x12 Feiten cab and its ridiculous and no, the mic and recordings do give do this amp justice, you really have to be in the room with it to feel it.
I have an early 80’s Rivera era Fender Concert amp modded by Fuchs. Best sounding amp I have ever owned! I primarily use my Silver Sky “Dead Spec” and it sounds so good.
I've got an ODS II 50w Custom. Fuchs make some ridiculously great amps. Quality components, incredible transformers, and smart wiring. Honestly the best amp I've *ever* played.
Fuchs amps have always intrigued me. They're from Clifton, NJ, just a few minutes from me! I've considered many times to go there, but I believe its more of a workplace than a storefront - either way, I'd love to see it.
I have a Mayer style amp (Ceriatone JM) that I use as a pedal platform. Try running a Friedman BEOD deluxe through the front end of your Fuchs with the mids cut. It will get you some VERY convincing mesa mark ii sounds.
I believe the word "clean" is somewhat of a misnomer for tube amps, since there's always some grit in the tone when you dig in. With that said, this amp sounds very good to my ears. For a truly pristine, loud & clean tone, why not just use something like a powerful solid-state amp (e.g. Roland JC-120)?
I wonder how this would stack up against an AN wonderland overdrive or dirty wonderland, and a TR Traditional Clean, which is a direct descendant of the JM John Mayer signature model. This amp sounds phenomenal, and I see they offer a 100-watt version.
Is this amp similar to the Two-Rock Trad Clean? Have you managed to find your tone yet? We all love SRV, Albert Collins, JM etc. Sooner or later we all find our own voice.
Completely different, John plays in E Standard with his amps completely clean and punchy. SRV always had dirt since he pushed his amps and played in E flat.
@@thomaskinne2357 JM is for the folks too young to have been around when SRV was. Don't get me wrong, JM is fantastic, but he really took so much from SRV.
The Traditional Clean is a direct evolution of the JM signature, after all. Other amps that can nail this as well are any SSS-based amplifier, AN dirty wonderland, wonderland overdrive, and overdrive reverb, most high-headroom Fender amps, and essentially any big, high-headroom clean amp of 50 watts or greater.
Agree since I own a few two rocks but there’s definitely some amps that do it quite well. A more unknown amp that does very good cleans is the Overdrive Signature that bill krinard at two rock did a few circuits of at two rock some years ago
Mayer tone. Play a strat, play the blues scale, Modal mix dorian and mixolidyian. Throw in any run of the mill OD pedal into a clean Amp done. You guys are such dorks
Oh but he left Fender because they wouldn't build him the guitar he wanted. It was good enough for the cats he stole all his chops from but. . . . . . . . . . . Yeah.
@@thomaskinne2357 Lol. Cry a little harder. PRS delivered him the guitar he wanted after two years of development and the partnership has paid both sides in spades. Send me a link to your signature PRS and I’ll go ahead throw my credit card down.
@@wadeholmes5486 Cry? Yeah man, I don't give a sh*t. Although I will say that PRS's QC, be it American or foreign, is usually much better than some other big companies.
Surely that's some sort of f**ked up oxymoron? Ha! All of that & no mention of Dumble huh? Interesting. Wait, just an opinion in this here "Comment section."
Andy Fuchs is a design genius. Nobody does more with a tube amp in a smaller enclosure than he does.

That Silver Sky your playing is making me rethink life choices. Just impeccable spec and color.

Great amp!! And great reverb!! Sounds like some modulation/shimmer in it, too.

Such a beautiful tone. Exactly the one I bet loads of us are searching for. Cheers, mate
Jeeeeeesus Christ dude that’s the sound
Please don’t use the Lord’s name like that❤
That’s some TONE right there. The silver sky looks rad btw

Also why is everyone just not having a good time in these comments hot damn people this sounds great

I love my Fuchs ODS 100. It’s the best amp I’ve ever played.

It’s a refin , there is an awesome video on it!
That amp is stone amazing.
Nice licks too

Dude...nice!
I assume that does not include Two Rock amps, especially the Traditional Clean?

I'd have to get some 2 inch "SRV" stickers and put "zero" and "given" in the appropriate places.
Song?
This amp fuchs
I always thought the John Mayer tone was the SRV tone with slight mods.
Completely different, John plays in E Standard with his amps completely clean and punchy. SRV always had dirt since he pushed his amps and played in E flat.
@@spanish_coral Yeah, but that is just a key change. I agree SRV had more of a growl, but the cleans sound similar to me.
& finally somebody brings up his name. Thank you!
@@spanish_coral Not to mention, I also hear a lot of Clapton in John Mayer's playing, just as much as SRV.

Maybe the next big thing its to sell “fingers”
Just get a Fender twin reverb

You guys are such dorks
Not really
And I bet it's about £5000
First?
Although a good tone, not the mayer tone.
Unless john was playing it 🤷♂️
@@burnsybluesexactly.
If u wanna get John. Mayer tone get a fender Strat
He is literally playing Mayer’s signature PRS. John hasn’t been with Fender in quite a few years.

How many John Mayer songs do I like? Zero. How many would I like to recreate at home? Zero. I do like the writing on the amp though. It's very white.
