Features
This Studio 10 EL34 is a low gain, classic crunch amplifier with an ECC83 valve in
the preamp stage. A hot preamp Boost can be engaged – either via the front panel
or the included footswitch – for authentic classic rock / indie rhythm playing and
vocal leads.
Much of the distinctive character of a single-ended valve amp comes from the way
its power stage clips, bringing out the nuances of the chosen power amp valve.
This Studio 10 amplifier features an EL34 power valve – influenced by classic British
amplifiers – which produces a superlative, warm British crunch when pushed hard
using the Master Volume. The 10 Watts of output power driving a Celestion speaker
makes this Studio 10 EL34 the perfect amp for practicing and recording at home or
in the studio, and for smaller live performances.
Professional features such as a specially-voiced reverb, footswitching and an effects
loop augment the sonic experience, making this amplifier fully equipped for today's
exacting performance requirements.
Completing the versatile feature set, a cabinet emulated line output is included for
silent practice, recording or for supporting your live sound into a PA. The signal for
the emulated output is taken directly after the power amp to ensure that you can
capture and record the tonal characteristics of the Class A configured EL34 power
valve and output transformer being pushed into saturation.
