Description
Designed by amp engineer James Brown, the 5150 Iconic Series 40W 1×12 Combo features two EL34 power tubes and a complex multi-stage hybrid preamp section of ECC83 vacuum tubes to deliver the powerful tones that the modern guitarist needs. The cabinet is made of MDF with a tight low-frequency response thanks to an internal plywood baffle and features custom EVH 12-inch Celestion loudspeakers that are specially voiced to match the preamp circuitry.
This combo amp is available with two channels, each with its own voicing, providing a high degree of versatility. The Green channel has an overdrive button that supports clean tones to mid-gain, while the Red channel has a burn button that is ideal for high-gain lead sounds.
Each channel has a gain control and a volume control that allows you to match the volume level when switching between clean and high gain channels. The Noise Gate on Channel 2 suppresses hiss with a fast response while creating a crisp sound with high clarity without unnaturally clogging up the staccato riff. The Boost control allows you to add a +10dB level boost with a footswitch. The control panel also includes a shared EQ (Low, Mid, High), a global resonance knob, and a presence knob for comprehensive low/high-end adjustments, while global reverb control allows for optimal initial reflection and decay time adjustments.
