45 watt guitar head built around an exclusive dual-class, hot-bias preamp design, delivering a wide range of feel and response. The custom-wound transformer supports 4, 8, and 16-ohm operation with multiple speaker outputs for flexible rig setups. Separate Rhythm and Drive level controls allow smooth transitions from clean to pushed tones, shaped by a responsive three-band EQ and a pull-mid control that introduces a modern mid-scoop when engaged. A bright control adds top-end presence (as a push/pull feature on the rhythm control), while the effects loop and slave output with independent level control make it easy to integrate into larger stage or studio systems. Powered by a pair of KT66 valves and harmonically saturated by 3 12AX7 preamp valves.
Filter caps, pre valves and resistors updated in mid 2024; then had a check over last month, replaced the rectifier valve and refreshed the standby switching circuit. Includes Budda instrument cable and original footswitch.
