I know several here still own/owned the GT... Jaguarguy (Mike) and benttop (Steve) come to mind immediately. I've been gassing for this one again and have a few questions if ya'll don't mind. Mike, I know you've mentioned the MV mod that you had done to yours. This being the loud beast that it is, does the MV mod pretty much do away with the need for an attenuator? Does the MV mod affect the gain in any way? I'm assuming that most of the gain is coming from the preamp section, and that the MV is a PPMIV? There's a GT on the forum right now that is tempting, but I'm really wanting a Red to match my other Z's. So if anyone out there has a red GT hit me up!

Lol.....another member afflicted with red head-itis ! I was looking for a red GT last year and they are scarce. Don's was in the buy and sell but just too expensive by the time it would have gotten to me in Canada. I believe there was one other red one that a member has/had on here at that point last year. if blonde is not your thing Chris' guitars in Albany seems to still have a minty 2008 black head for $1,149. I spoke to him on this last year but never pulled the trigger. The GT is the third one down the page. www.chrisguitars.com/amp.htmlGood of luck with the hunt !

Red has always drawn me in more than any other color! Unfortunately, I missed out on Don's amp as well. I wanted it, just bad timing. The black one there has some cool factor being that it sports the anniversary badge.

I don't have mine any longer, and never had the mod put in, so I'm useless to this discussion.

I've seen/played/heard Jaguarguy (Mike)'s amp... the Master Volume is quite effective; I don't recall seeing an Air Brake involved in the setup between the head & speaker cab.

No need for attenuator with the MV. It tames the volume yet still has plenty of gain on tap. You can turn the volume all the way up and get a great fuzz tone from it. I highly recommend the MV mod.
