EVH 5150 Iconic Series EL34 40-watt 1 x 12-inch Tube Combo Amp – Black/Gold 2258300000

Description EVH 5150 Iconic Series EL34 40-watt 1 x 12-inch Tube Combo Amp – Black/Gold 2258300000 The EVH® 5150® Iconic® Series satisfies the needs of gigging and recording guitarists craving that powerful EVH tube tone, but at a more affordable price. Evolving from the revered EVH 5150III® amplifiers, the Iconic Series delivers the searing sound and growling gain that Eddie Van Halen made famous throughout his groundbreaking career. Designed by renowned amp engineer, James Brown, the 5150® Iconic® Series 40-watt 1×12 combo is powered by two EL34 power tubes and voiced by a complex, multi-stage hybrid preamp section anchored by a duet of ECC83 tubes providing all the fire power the modern guitarist needs. The cabinet is constructed out of MDF with special internal plywood baffling for tight and increased bass response, and houses a custom designed EVH 12″ Celestion® speaker voiced specifically for this preamp circuit, so that the pristine cleans and searing high gain tones are tight, clear and articulate. Punching above its weight, this combo features two channels with an extra voicing on each for even more versatility. The Green channel boasts an overdrive button to run from clean tones to increased gain, while the Red channel’s burn button adds fiery crunch that’s ideal for blistering leads. Each channel houses its own gain and volume controls, allowing for level-matching the volume when switching between the clean and high gain channels. The channel two noise gate’s quick attack suppresses any hiss while ensuring all staccato riffing is articulate and crisp, not choked and choppy. The Boost control allows you to add another 10Db of foot-switchable volume to your tone – perfect for ensuring your solos cut through the mix. The control panel also includes shared EQ (Low, Mid and High), global resonance and presence knobs to adjust the low- and high-end aspects of your tone, and a global reverb control to add the perfect amount of bounce and decay for any room. Other features include a two-button footswitch, effects loop, dual parallel speaker output jacks, ¼ power switch to reduce wattage – allowing you to crank the amp and still preserve tone but without destroying your neighbor’s solitude, and a speaker-emulated DI XLR with power amp mute for accurate all-tube EVH tone for recording direct or using through any PA system. Sporting sophisticated and distinctive EVH style, the 5150 Iconic Series 40-watt 1×12 combo is wrapped in either Black textured vinyl with a black cloth front grille and features gold and black 5150 and EVH logo badges in the upper left and lower right corners. This all-tube combo is finished off with a brushed gold anodized aluminum top panel, vintage-style chicken-head knobs and molded black plastic top handle.
