Budda MN-100

anthony — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 02:24:09 +0000

The Budda Amps MN-100 Head is an innovative amp that sounds outstanding and looks pretty sharp too. This powerful and versatile amp was created in part by Mark Nason, who brings his signature style and design to the MN-100. Mark Nason is designer of Italian leather shoes for rockers who teamed up with Budda to create the unique look of the MN-100. This amp was designed to cover a range of sounds from a Fender Twin vibe on the clean channel, to a Marshall JCM 800 on channel 2 and a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier on the 3rd channel. This is one of Budda’s first entries in the area of modern multi-channel tube amps, and it’s also one of their most sophisticated amps to date. But while some amps become overly sophisticated to the point of losing sight of the most important aspect of any amp—its tone—Budda’s engineers always made certain that the MN-100 was focused on capturing a specific style and sound.

The MN-100 features three independent channels. The amp runs on 120 watts of power, although a half-power switch lets you cut it down to 60 if you prefer. Under the hood, the MN-100 uses five 12AX7 preamp tubes, a 12AX7 for the over-boost circuit, and a 12AX7 for the phase splitter. The main power section is run by four EL34s, although you can opt for four 6L6s if you like. The amp generally uses two 5U4 tubes in its rectifier section, but you can modify it to use either 5AR4s or GZ34s.

Budda claims that this leather-bound product is the best amp money can buy, and it certainly looks like it’s worth a million bucks. The final price tag for the MN-100 is $4,999. Let us know what you think by leaving a comment.

It’s also very lightweight and easy to travel with, making it great for taking it on the road.

The Superdrive 18 Series II is a class AB amp that is completely hand-wired. It has two channels (rhythm and high gain) and the amps are known for being amazingly articulate. The amp uses two EL84 tubes, a 5u4 rectifier, and 12AX7 tubes for the preamp. The amp has controls for mid, bass, treble, rhythm, and master volume. It also features a pull modern mid function and a pull brite function for rhythm channel volume. The Superdrive 18 Series II also features a custom-wound transformer that has a 4, 8, or 16 ohm switch. This amp is available as a head for $1595 new or as a 1x12 combo for $1895.

Budda Amps

anthony — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 09:54:43 +0000

Budda Amplification was founded in 1995, making it one of the newer amp companies around. However, founding designers Scot Sier and Jeff Bober were no strangers to the amp world. Both had experience designing and building amps. In fact, the first amp they marketed under the Budda Amps label, the 18-watt Twinmaster Ten, was based on one of Bober’s early designs. They debuted the Twinmaster at the NAMM show in 1996, and they sold out of all 65 amps the first day of the show. This lead Sier and Bober to creating a line of low wattage boutique amps.

By 2004, Budda had grown to the point that the company had to expand. With new means of production, they were able to add new products and product lines, including the Superdrive line of amps. These amps are of higher wattage than the Twinmaster. They also introduced the Dual Stage line (which has been discontinued), the Stringmaster amps, and they released the Twinmaster Ten a decade after it hit the shelves as a way of celebrating the company’s tenth anniversary.

In addition to amps, Buddha also makes a line of pedals. Some of their most well-known pedals include the BudWah wah wah pedal, the Phatman distortion pedal, and the Zenman distortion pedal.

Budda’s operating philosophy is that amps should enhance the guitar and inspire musicians to play better since they can hear themselves very clearly through a Budda amp. They also strive to create innovative amps and pedals. They’ve experimented with various tubes, cabinets, speakers, and more in an attempt to create the best equipment possible.

Budda’s products are used by beginners and professional players alike. Carlos Santana, Good Charlotte’s Benji and Joel Madden, Matchbox 20’s Kyle Cook, and Aerosmith’s Brad Whitford are just a few people who use Budda amps and pedals.
