Description

A great 30W combo with tons of awesome features.

The Egnater Rebel-30 112 MKII 1x12" combo is the next generation of the Rebel 30 with the features you've been asking for. Egnater upped the gain on channel 2 and gave it a more aggressive tone and feel. Channel has even more clean headroom with a lower noise floor. Of course, they kept the unique Egnater features such as the Tube Mix knob, giving you access to an incredible variety of tones from American to British and the silent record mode that actually replaces the speaker with an internal load so all the great power tube character is retained.

Channel 1 delivers rich cleans with controls for volume, treble and bass. Channel 2 dishes out powerful, touch-responsive overdrive with treble, middle and bass EQ, as well as a wide-range gain knob that takes you from growl to scream. Both channels feature Egnater's signature Bright and Tight switches and each channel has its own Watts knob so you can access both low-wattage crunch and serious clean headroom, or any combination between 1 to 30 watts.

Under the hood you will find the new Elite Transformers with substantially greater headroom and industrial grade red FR4 glass epoxy circuit boards with beefed up copper traces to name just a few of the improvements.

The Rebel-30 112 MK II back panel holds more welcome surprises, such as independent Reverb controls for each channel and a tone-preserving series effects loop. The speaker-emulated line out lets you go directly to the board live or in the studio. Set the standby switch to "Silent Record" for great direct-recorded tones that spare both your ears and your neighbors. A dual-function footswitch for channel selection and reverb on/off is included.

Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Egnater Rebel 30 112 combo.

Features and functionality

  • The wattage knob functions as a headroom control, not a volume attenuator; at 1 watt, there's less headroom, affecting tone and dynamics.

    Source
  • The tube mix knob offers subtle tonal differences; EL84s are slightly more aggressive, 6V6s smoother, but overall tonal variation is limited.

    Source
  • The Rebel 30 lacks a built-in reverb tank, prompting users to rely on pedals for reverb effects.

    Source
  • The tube mix feature serves as a quick fix during gigs if tubes fail; switching from EL84s to 6V6s can restore functionality without noticeable tonal impact.

    Source

Use cases and applications

  • The Rebel 30 is better suited for gigging than practice due to volume requirements for achieving high-gain tones without external attenuation.

    Source
  • The Rebel 30 excels as a pedal platform, handling a range of effects while maintaining its rich tonal character.

    Source
  • Egnater amps are frequently used in alt rock and classic rock settings, with some models like the Armageddon designed for heavier genres.

    Source

User experience

  • Owners report that using the amp's power amp section with a POD HD500 provides a thick, meaty modern rock tone.

    Source
  • Some owners have experienced reliability issues with the amp's FX loop jacks, requiring replacement parts.

    Source

Comparisons

  • The Egnater Tweaker offers more tonal variety compared to the Rebel, though it shares a single EQ for both channels, which some users find limiting.

    Source
  • Unlike models such as THD Univalve, the Rebel 30's circuit design makes the tube mix feature's tonal differences less pronounced.

    Source

Build quality

  • The Rebel 30's clean channel is reportedly noisy; swapping preamp tubes can mitigate this issue.

    Source
  • Egnater amps are noted for sturdy cabinets and thick circuit boards with wide traces, contributing to their reliability and ease of servicing.

    Source

Setup and maintenance

  • EL84 tubes tend to burn out quicker than 6V6 tubes; regular monitoring and replacement recommended for consistent performance.

    Source
  • Early Egnater models may have power transformer issues; Mercury Magnetics offers direct replacement parts for these transformers.

    Source

Mods and upgrades

  • An owner reported using a 12AY7 tube in the first preamp position to better control the gain structure and maintain cleaner tones at higher settings.

Great little amp with tons of character

I'VE HAD ONE OF THESE BABIES IN MY STUDIO FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS. Had the F-caps replaced and tubes replaced with JJ's and have been breaking it in for a client. Firstly, the bias feature is terrific. Easy for anyone to adjust on the fly.
Secondly. Theres a bkend knob so you can use the EL84' or the 6V6's or blend between them. Third, there's a wattage knob for each channel that goes from 1w to 30w. You can essentially choose at chich point the tubes start to distort. Amazing feature, esp considering you can have a differemt Wattage for each channel and switch between early or late on either channel with a toe tap. 4th, and most imoortant, point- this amp is very touch sensitive plugged straight in. I have several fenders and a vox that I A/B and none compare in this department. The tone and gain knobs give a whole lot of range, and the "Bright" and "Tight" (bass response) switches give 4 more tonal options to each channel. Fifth. Its loud and aroud, even at 1w you can exceed 90 dB easily. The stock Egnater custom speaker is killer. Dunno what it is, but its sooo nice.
6th, Excels at cleans and takes OD pedals as good as a Twin Reverb.
Lastly, Reverb is also very nice, with different setting for each channel. Not as drippy as a true Fender spring, but better than most amps.

Dont tell anyone, just buy it before the prices go up.
