Add me to the 12" speakers on bass = SEX camp.
Good looking stuff either way!

i played used to play out an old acoustic 4x12 with a horn that sounded amazing...
bandmate bought a lodestone, thing is intense
i would definitely buy a beta-based pedal in heartbeat
i hear you have an impressive sunn collection...

Yeah the LODESTONE is a pretty gnarly pedal. The beta preamp we are working on is in the form of a rack-mount type. Shoving that circuit into a pedal would take some real estate! Curious, who is your bandmate? Always like to know who is playing MONOLITH stuff.

So youre definately not making any more tectonic shifts at all? That sucks cause i would like to have had one but im unemployed now and probably wouldnt be buying one until i get one of your 412s or 612s...although that may be a minute cause im planning on loading with some scumbacks and those are almost the price of a new cab themselves. It would be really gnarly if verellen would make a meatsmoke that aesthetically matched the 412 you make. I guess i could just get it dyed black but im not really into the bare wood look for amps....

Here is the thing with the TECTONIC Shift pedal, I love the setup and the tone, only problem is? It is a shit ton of work to make. I produce ALL of the boxes with my own two hands, I used to hand stamp them but decided to screen them because aesthetically it looked better to me. I still have TECTONIC chassis here, not many but some. Between orders from Europe and various other stores in the US they went very quick. I guess the only response to that would be "well, doesnt that mean you should keep making them? Well, because people want them...". This is true but like I said, its alot of work.
One thing I am considering is keeping the circuits and splitting them up to cut the work load for each. Another option is to hand-stamp them again. But even that is MORE work than I want to do. If the demand stays high, I will consider keeping them in the MONOLITH line.
Regarding Verellens stained enclosures? Ben has seemed to find his market for his amps and his aesthetic, we thought it would be interesting to combine two aesthetics and see how the response was, so far, it seems positive. The woodworker, Mike Irdman, who makes the actual amp headboxes is a good friend and I think he does beautiful work, we have our thing and they have theirs.
Let me know if you want a cab or two, the saw is fired up and ready build as always! Lights are always on around here!

i play in microtia (pdx), our drummer tim bought the pedal as he likes to play bass as well.
dont own any rack gear, but i might make an exception for that!
i currently play a beta lead, would love to hear it with a tube power section
