PRS MT 15 V2

PRS MT 15 V2

The PRS MT 15 V2 is the updated iteration of Mark Tremonti's signature amplifier head, delivering a powerful and versatile two-channel tube tone in a compact "lunchbox" format. Palen Music Center is excited to offer this refined amplifier, engineered for guitarists who demand both devastatingly articulate high-gain sounds and pristine, sparkling cleans. The remarkable tone of the MT 15 V2 builds upon the acclaimed PRS Archon circuit, boasting five gain stages before the Master Volume for an incredibly rich and saturated distortion. This new version also introduces an enhanced Lead channel, providing even more tonal flexibility. Whether you're laying down heavy riffs or crafting soaring solos, the MT 15 V2 maintains exceptional note clarity and a massive, tight low end.

The construction of the MT 15 V2 is designed for road-worthiness and portability, featuring a robust black metal chassis for durability. This updated model also showcases thoughtful aesthetic improvements, including a redesigned front grille plate, a comfortable leatherette handle, and updated LED colors (blue for clean, amber for overdrive, red for lead) to match the larger MT 100. The heart of the amplifier's distinctive sound lies in its carefully selected tubes. The power section is driven by two TAD 6L6GCM-STR tubes (or sometimes 5881s), contributing to the amp's bold and authoritative low end, delivering a substantial output that belies its 15-watt rating. For the preamp section, six 12AX7 / ECC83 tubes lay the foundation for its diverse tonal characteristics, from crystalline cleans to harmonically saturated overdrive. A significant upgrade in the V2 is the addition of a push/pull Overdrive control on the Lead channel's Treble knob, which bypasses two gain stages for a more vintage, crunchier "mid-gain" sound. The clean channel retains its convenient push/pull Boost, adding a touch of old-school grit when desired.

No matter the setting, the MT 15 V2 delivers a balanced and smooth tone across the frequency spectrum, preventing any harshness even at extreme gain levels. Its ability to produce a "larger than life" sound, often compared to 50-watt amplifiers, makes it an ideal choice for recording, practice, songwriting, or small to mid-sized venues. With its versatile two-channel design, responsive tone controls, and robust build with key enhancements, the PRS MT 15 V2 is an even more impressive and adaptable amplifier for any serious guitarist.
