Description
A compact 2 channel tube guitar amplifier with IR speaker simulation and internal speaker load for standalone use. The wizard is a fully programmable tube guitar amp with motor knobs. It has 32 memory locations in which you can save your favorite sounds and switch between the presets with the rotary encoder or via midi. The speaker simulator comes with my favorite 16 cabs. In addition, it’s possible to upload your own favorite speaker impuls responses with the matching computer app (Mac and Windows). This amp gives you the sound and ease of use of a classic tube guitar amp, but with the compactness and multi-functionality of a modeling amp.

The Hughes and Kettner Access preamp is noted for use with vintage plexi poweramps, highlighting a preference due to perceived lack of dynamics and bottom end in the original poweramp.
