Product Overview

Black and tan with a large check cloth baffle.

Now available - Orange Drop capacitor upgrade. Orange Drops are amongst the best in the world due to their stability, resistance to temperature vairation, low microphonics and ability to handle high voltages. Plus they sound really good. Adding this option, we swap out 12 of the stock caps for Orange Drops. 

This is the legendary Super Lead Overdrive tone built in our 20 watt chassis and transformer set. Designed in Seattle, the preamp is a spot-on recreation of the 1987 high gain SLO benchmark used by countless pros. Improvements made are replacement of the original's antiquated channel switching with modern relays, heater routing to reduce noise, and integration of all components to a single PCB.

The harmonically rich, touch responsive and smooth high gain of the original is here. Assembled in Northern California from US-made and imported parts. Each amp is built one at a time and hand-serialized. 

Features:

  • Crunch and Overdrive channels
  • 5 12AX7 preamp tubes
  • 20 watts from 2x EL84 power tubes
  • Tube-buffered, pedal-friendly effects loop
  • Hand-soldered, thick (purple) PCB with through hole construction. High-quality components throughout
  • Rear panel depth control
  • Channel footswitch included

Options:

  • Control panel acrylic choice of black, white, or gold.
  • Clean / Crunch switch on Channel One - without this switch we can hardwire to either Clean or Crunch at your preference. 
  • Bright switch
  • Front-panel channel switching with Overdrive indicator LED
  • Mercury Smooth DC choke for $69 (regular $89)

Because we use the same acrylic overlays for all amps, optional switches are not labeled on the front.
