im supriused someone as tone-obsessed as icey isn't using some insanely expensive custom tube-based thing.
If you think one 12AX7 in a preamp in a Valvestate makes a difference you're insane.

The MG series can sound kick ass if you dial it right:



To a lesser extent

Icey has a custom handwired 3 channel thing on the way I think.

Sounds great, Iceman. Your projects always end up being by far the most interesting on the board.

Yeah, but calling them his projects isn't really fair. Seriously, his luthier needs to sign up so we can give him the credit where it's really due.

Anyone else think it's cool how Icey's amp is going to have the big WEEZER logo on the front?

First, that isn't the weezer logo, there's only one set of lines on the sides. Two, you mean this guy PATENTED point to point turrent construction!? That has been used for amp making for DECADES.
