I got my PRS MT15 amp a few days ago and I'm super happy with it!
When I first unpacked the amp I immediately noticed that it was slightly bigger than I was expecting.
It's quite a bit larger than my small Orange Dark Terror and Jim Root but it's comparable to the Dual Terror, a little deeper.
It's got a good weight to it as well so it just feels super solid because of that.
It's 15 watts but it's freaking loud, incredible really!
I've put it through my Orange 2x12 and Mesa Recto 1x12 and it sounds killer through both cabs.
The Orange is the winner for this amp though, just sounds huge.
The clean channel is very clean but it has a nice feel.
When you pull the treble control you can get a slight amount of grit but only with high output pickups.
So what would make this amp even better for me is if there was a 'in between'/crunch channel.
However, I can easily get some nice bluesy tones with my EHX Soulfood pedal, which I can highly recommend btw.
Overal very nice cleans with good headroom and a responsive EQ section.
The EQ on this amp is a little clinical overall, but that is a good thing really, it allows for very easy tonal shaping.
The drive channel sounds absolutely huge!
Kind of like a modded Rectifier or something.
The highs are less fizzy than a recto though and the bottom is a little bit tighter.
The midrange is really great on this amp, it sits in the mix really well.
I like to turn up the mids and treble quite a bit to get even more mids.
Since the low end isn't mega tight you can easily use this amp with a boost pedal to get those sick modern metal tones.
However, I really like that the amp has a bit of a looser feel, it just makes it so much more versatile.
So I made a little demo with both channels.
I didn't use any boost pedals, just some compression in front of the amp for the clean parts plus an octave fuzz and some reverb for the subtle leads.
It sounds killer with my PRS SE277 Baritone with Dimarzios (crunchlab & liquifire).

So who else has one?
How do you like to use yours?
