Description

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.
