- The 18Our first product, and still one of the all time favorites is the 18. The 18 watt is based on a Marshall (tm) with a few circuit changes. This amp goes anywhere from sweet clean tones, to classic rock, to heavier gain, without being too heavy. Think AC/DC, Van Halen, ABB, etc. Due to overwhelming demand and popularity power scaling is now a standard feature on the 18. This amp does it all, and does it so well. Touch sensitivity on either channel is second to none. Play lightly, it has sweet cleans, dig in a little and its unleashes mild bluesy overdrive tones. Dig in harder and its Classic rock at its finest. No need for pedals with this, but it does love a good boost as well. Do not confuse with the original 18 watt Marshall amp, this amp has all that, and much more.The first channel, or "normal" channel is based on the stock amp, nice chimey cleans to a killer smokey blues. Great feel and dynamics.The second channel or "bright" channel is the hotrodded channel. This channel has had the tremolo removed, and another gain stage and full range EQ added in its place. With a master volume on this channel, it can go from amazing chimey clean to nice crunchy gritty blues, to a killer classic and hard rock tone. No over the top heavy muddy gain here, but a killer hot plexi level.For those who wonder if 18 watts is enough to gig with, the answer is YES. Several customers report that its great to be able to turn an amp up enough at a gig to get that sweet power tube distortion without being yelled at be the soundman, or the club owner. Easily loud enough to be heard over all but the most heavy handed drummer.Built with custom wound transformers, and the same high quality that all of my other amps are known for. 4 input Vintage Brit styling, and set up. Jump the channels for a nice thick sweet tone. At home on the stage, at home or in the studio.The newest amp to the lineup is the LT-1. Born from the need and desire for that wonderful old Marshall tone, but at a more home and club friendly level. The LT-1 is the baddest smallblock ever produced IMO, and this little 20 watt beast is the baddest little Plexi styled amp. Derived from my Vintage 50, the LT-1 is a departure from the traditional 18 watt styled amps. The LT-1 is fixed bias instead of cathode bias as is traditional for the 18 watt style amps. It also has a Plexi styled NFB loop, is solid state rectified, and set up like my Vintage 50. The LT-1 has more girth, and drive than typical for an EL84 amp, and keeps a great feel at low, or dimed levels. It offers the same exceptional dynamics that all of my amps have. Want sweet chimey cleans, just back off with yoru right hand a little, or roll the guitar back. For more crunch and grind, just roll the guitar up and smack it harder, the feel is amazing.Built with custom wound transformers, and the same high quality that all of my other amps are known for. 4 input Vintage Brit styling, and set up. Jump the channels for a nice thick sweet tone. At home on the stage, at home or in the studio. The LT-1 is available with the optional Reinhardt SV setup for situations that require the ultimate lowered volume tone.
