    I have the Lynch V2 one. Sometimes I use it in my 2204, but I put a 12AU7 in the slot on the left. That way, I can roll the guitar volume down and get a usable clean....then, it still smashes with it up. Overall, I think I actually prefer a drive pedal before the amp...(an exotic BB pre-SD-1 type)....the hot mod tone does turn guitarists heads when they hear it, though 😎

    Thanks for your interest Ryan! While it would technically work in many other amps like old Fenders, I didn't tune the circuit for those amps. So I'd rather just sell these into applications where I know they'll absolutely work great rather than risk having disappointed customers. Here's a compatibility list for future reference: legendarytones.com/will-my-hot-mod-v2-work-in-x-amp/

    Similar basic circuits. The Hot Mod V2 Evo has more of a bass cut than the Lynch which is tuned with a little more bass. The gain switch on the Evo when down is equal to the Lynch at 1 o’clock on the gain dial. With the HMV2E gain switch in the Up position it is equal to the Lynch gain knob full up. Also $299 for the Lynch vs $199 for the Hot Mod V2 Evo.

    The Ceriatone sounded great! The Marshall hmm, not so much. The Marshall didn't sound real useable to me maybe a little more mods needed on that amp. Great for cleaner Classic Rock. I dont see putting this apparatus into the Marshall that a pedal couldn't do to help it. The Ceriatone was an all out Tone Bully with this device.
