I had to have it and have been over the moon since aquiring it. If that's not enough then add three modes, a Variac switch, 50 or 100 watt selector, solo boost with its own gain and volume, an incredible effects loop and you have every conceivable Plexi tone from 1966 to 1986 and beyond.

It nails the best of the classic Plexis to a level of perfection I have never experienced previously in any amp, EVER !!! The icing on the cake, it does this running a full 100 watts with a master volume that is so effective it will blow your mind. "The Metro-Plex is exactly what George claims. Many have claimed to have harnessed the Plexi sound and feel at a reasonable volume, very few have come close, until the Metro-Plex. I've tried and owned many mnay amps and have been to NAMM a dozen times to try almost every amp available on the market. "I've been searching for an authentic sounding, usable Super Lead Plexi for 25 years, ever since it no longer became practical to use my original. I really had no idea what I was missing until now. It was literally an epiphanic and inspirational experience for me. Everything I have ever wanted in a Plexi and an amp for that matter are here. What I didn't expect was just how good it would sound and feel. I was drawn to the Metro-Plex based on the videos on your YouTube page and how intuitive and intelligent the features of the amp are. I've always been aware of your amps but never had the chance to use one. For some context, I own and have owned a wide array of high-end boutique and vintage amplifiers (Friedman, Diezel, Matchless, Komet, Marshall, Fender, CAE/Suhr, etc.) so I'm no stranger to quality. "I received my Metro-Plex yesterday that I purchased through Dave at Overland Express Guitars.
#Plexamp volume control mod
MOD mode is selectable between the '68 Superlead voicing and Modded Superlead voicing. PLEXI mode is selectable between the JTM 45/100 voicing and '68 Superlead voicing. Each mode, PLEXI and MOD, has two possible voicings. Time for a solo, hit the footswitch for BOOST mode, a high voltage FET boost built into the front of the amp - and it has a separate master volume.Īlso included in this design is Metropoulos' reknowned Zero Loss FX loop, switchable for pedal level or rack level operation. Add in a circuit mod and you are in MODDED mode. That tone is the heart of the new Metro-Plex amp, called PLEXI mode. NOTHING else sounds like this amp - until now. The Metro-Plex is based on the tone of a 1968 Superlead played through a 1968 basketweave slant cab loaded with G12M speakers. With this amp you have squeaky clean to full-on scream at your fingertips (and toe tips via the foot pedal). The master volumes truly allow bedroom volume without degrading the tone, like no other before. The Metro-Plex is a 100/50 watt head featuring a PLEXI mode w/ master, a MODDED PLEXI mode w/ master, a JTM 45/100 mode, a BOOST mode, a built in variac and built in FX loop. The final word in a Plexi replica: The Metropoulos Metro-Plex.
You'll hear it immediately, you'll feel it deeply and your playing will respond sub-consciously. No production amp incorporates this level of detail or, in a word: obsession.
You can't even buy a replica this true in music stores. These are amps you can't create from schematics and data sheets. Using his own '66 45/100, '67 Superlead, '69 Superbass and '70 Superlead as the templates, each important era of the famed 100 watt amp is now available in one amp. Years of reverse engineering and R&D has all coalesced into George Metropoulos' modern day masterpiece, the Metro-Plex. METRO-PLEX IN-DEPTH Metro-Plex 100/50 Watt Head $3,550.00 - BUY NOW
