20:45 onwards for Mark giving an update on the MT100.

October 17th 2019 video upload but the interview might have been a week or two before so its a little old. Mark Tremonti Interview. Pretty fun. Around 3:40 till 5:20 Mark talks about the MT100 brief points that he mentions about the amp: -Not dialled in just yet -Gone through 3 revisions...

Nice! I might get some of these. I've been mainly using the Two Notes licensed OS Mesa 4X12, Angl (Two Notes Engl cab), Celestions and Ownhammer stuff.

That's great to hear! I might try a similar setup to that for home recording. If you don't mind me asking, which IR do you like to use with the MT15? Mark Tremonti seems to be more of a real cab and mic guy but I saw some UA OX Top Boxes in some recent live shots so maybe they're changing...

Bright switches could add some versatility to the head.

Yea thats what I've always heard that the MT15 is really loud! Mark also runs it through a 4X12 and can be seen using it in some pre-production shots for their album 'Walk the Sky'. He even said he's been using it on other albums. I think an MT15 through a Universal Audio OX Top Box or Suhr...

Yea, I can't really tell for sure because its blurry when zoomed in, but under the switch I thought it looked like BOOST but it could be BRIGHT. Thought it followed the 'Pull boost' under the Treble knob of the MT15. That's great to hear about the MT15 matching well with a Mesa 4X12! I wonder...

So after zooming in a bit, looks like there is from left to right: Presence, Clean Channels' Master, Bass, Middle, Treble, then a switch for the Clean Channel Boost?, Volume and then the Gain Channels: Master, Bass, Middle, Treble, and Gain Some black mark (?) between the Gain Channel's Master...

At first I thought they were just hanging out, but now going by Seth Morrison's equipboard page... they have almost identical guitar and amp setups! https://equipboard.com/pros/seth-morrison

I remember some older interviews from the MT15 reveal that Mark Tremonti wanted to immediately work on the 100 Watt version. I don't know much about amps but, Doug Sewell, who designs PRS amps said that he could turn the MT15 into a 55 Watt amp in about half an hour or so. But it's been awhile...

I can see that happening. That would also set it apart more from the PRS Archon 100 designs and other amps in the line-up. Very modern design. Even the MT15 looks so 'industrial' and metal looking. It's pretty cool.

Real question on everyone's mind is: Will he keep the MT15 lights?

Yea, me too. In Keith Merrow's video demoing the Archon, the Resonance was set relatively low and the 7 string guitars he and Jeff Loomis used sounded so clear and defined even without boosts. I wonder how the MT100 sounds compared to the Archon 100. Edited: Spelling

I'm really looking forward to hearing it too! Mark Tremonti uses dual amps for his live tone so I'm wondering how it would all come together in one head.
