Peter Thorn at the Suhr Guitar Booth - NAMM 2009

I would prefer the amp on top of the PT 100 the SH 100!

[SuperSoula]

Hi.

Great playng sount ant amps.

tell me please the different between

the pt100 ant od100sh+.

Which amphas more gain?

Many thanks.

[RonStephenson]

hey, supersoula. thx for the comment. i dont know enough about the amps to tell you the differences or the specs, but maybe someone else who does and happens upon your comment will be kind enough to respond. later.

channel 2 &3 on pt 100 are "seperate" (seperate gain and volume) but share the same tone controls. Also there are som other stuff like womp (loose or tight bass), and some other stuff I can't remember. I would have bought a PT100 over a OD100se+.

[STEVEHOWARD007]

John is in my opinion the most knowledgeable person I have ever met when it comes to understand what creates tone from the strings to the pickups, wood, bridges, nut material, and all the way through the signal chain to the amp and the cab. He has a rare God given ear for tone and the knowledge to bring it to life through his guitars and electronics. He DA MAN.

[knikk77]

Everything Suhr puts his hands on turns to gold :-).

[STEVEHOWARD007]

John designed the OD100 and Bradshaw built them. Bradshaw quit building them about 4 or 5 years ago and now John has the rights to the name and is building many iterations upon this theme. John has always been the knowledgeable brain behind these things.

[plattnacke]

Isnt it bob bradshaw who have designed the Custom Audio Electronics anps?

The Badger is John Suhr but the OD100 series isnt that Bob Bradshaws?

[RonStephenson]

platt... i don't really know for sure. maybe one of the suhr guys can clear it up by responding.

[jem7772]

does he say Ed will love it at 3.20 ?? Sounds a lot like a 5150 III......

[knikk77]

Yes, they do have much of the same "fizzyness" as a 5150. But not that dry. The clean channel alone is worth the whole amp. This is a El34 amp not 6L6 like the 5150.

[stratthead]

kinda fuzzy and compressed to me.

[f2kflyer]

Too bad you have to sell your next of kin to buy one.

[Treetopper]

Wow, awesome tone!

[soren650]

Is it John Suhr talking around 1:00 ?

[RonStephenson]

yep! that is the man.

[lidesnowi]

Mr Suhr make the greatest amps on the planet PERIOD.

[Stringprodigy]

The boys at Suhr are working on a 50 watt 2 channel combo amp based on the PT model for 2010. Watch for it!

[CAEOD100]

Is that "PT100"?

[RonStephenson]

I'm pretty sure it's the newest version of Suhr's OD100. I'll double check and If it's not I'll update that info here, but I'm pretty sure it's the OD100. -Ron

[CAEOD100]

Thanks Ron.

I think that the amplifier is new "extra gain and level knobs on CH2" version of OD100 or PT100.

Great tone!

[RonStephenson]

CAE, check out the comment I just posted... Phade proved it was the PT100. Early on in the vid when it zooms the amp, you can see it says PT100. You were right, too!

[Phade21GSX]

Actually, it's a PT100...check out the print on the right of the amp when the camera zooms in.

[RonStephenson]

OK! Phade21GSX gets the final kudos, even though everyone else was right as well about the amp being a PT100 and not the OD100. Thanks for the "zoom" tip on the vid Phade! You were so right. Nothing like video evidence to reveal the truth! Irrefutable evidence!

[Phade21GSX]

Never been a huge fan of the OD100 series, but I have to admit this amp sounds great!

[RonStephenson]

It really does, and that was recorded on my little hand held camcorder. i guess it doesnt hurt to have an elite player like pete playing a custom built suhr guitar either!! thanks for the comments. i appreciate them!

[eastonmackay]

cool vid i really want 1

[Phade21GSX]

Yeah, Pete's a great player...and a nice guy from what I can tell - reading his posts on the forums. I'll hopefully be able to afford one of these after I get the loan on my Bogner Fish paid off. Thanks for putting this video up!
