Black Eye 20 Alligator

Includes a perforated metal grill painted in 'hammered copper'.

Alligator with painted 'hammered copper' perforated metal and white acrylic control panel.

Version 3.0 of our Black Eye circuit has been revised to include an 800-style voice on channel one, and a heavier Brown sound on channel two.

20 watts from 2x EL84

Designed by Epic Amplification, the Black Eye fits into our 2.X platform of chassis/cabinet and transformer set.

Channel One is our version of classic Marshall tones, similar to an 800..

Channel Two is higher gain, like a modded Brown Sound.

Features:

• 4 12AX7 preamp tubes
• 20 watts from 2x EL84 power tubes
• Thick blue PCB with through hole construction. High-quality components throughout
• Heavy, custom-wound Jet City power and output transformers
• Tube-driven effects loop at pedal level
• Channel footswitch included

Options:

• $19 Cold-clipper switch. Effective on both channels, this front-panel switch puts one cap in or out of the preamp for a subtle variance of the gain stage.
• $39 Saturation switch. Effective only on channel two, this front-panel switch adds distortion and a bit of compression.
• $29 Lynch mode switch. This front-panel switch near the output of the amp selects between two caps, including a .68uf, which allegedly Mr Scary preferred for a bit more aggressive mid-range.
• $39 Depth control. Rear-mounted rotary control for adding bottom end on the output.

Assembled in California from US-made and imported parts. Each amp is built one at a time and hand-serialized.
