This small full tube amplifier is designed for practice-/bed room playing purposes and studio & recording use, despite it`s sound level with full power is even enough to play leads with a rock band. It`s technical architecture is based on two 12AX7 preamp tubes and two cathode biased 6AK6 power tubes in push pull configuration without negative feedback.

 

This little monster puts out some 2 watts audio power depending the amount of distortion. Amp contains a Treble, Middle, Bass tonestack, Gain, Volume and a VVR unit for power amp output power scaling. With these controls you can easily dial all kind of Marshallish overdrive/distortion lead sounds without disturbing your neighbours. This amplifier goes to dirty pretty early and suits very well for lead guitar use. When I was planning this amp, my aim was to get world class singing lead sound without ear crushing volume level.
