Description

Edit description

The amplifier head consists of a 5 watt class A 6V6 based circuit with a simple 12AX7 preamp. There is one input on the front with controls for volume and tone. The circuit is hand wired point to point style with no circuit board and minimal wire. Because of its extra small size, the circuit must be built this way. The circuit has no negative feedback and therefore breaks up at a moderate volume for home or studio use.

The mini head can power any 8 ohm speaker cabinet, and has that classic class A crunch when you push the volume. Sparkly and punchy clean tones turn into thick distortion and lead tones when the amp begins to saturate.
