Looking for a very special one of a kind, high performance amp that no one else has?
Old
public address (PA) tube amps can be modified with fantastic results for the
guitar or harp player. We have done
conversions on brands such as Airline, Bell, Bogen, Challenger, Knight, Masco,
Newcomb, and many others. Most have low to moderate power output between 5 and
40 watts.
To maintain the mojo,
the original outside look of the unit is retained as much as possible.
Inside we transform the circuitry, first by making the power supply rock
solid and dead quiet, then based on the player’s input we build up an
amplifier that utilizes many of the original & unique eight pin vacuum
tubes. The new design will
incorporate any feature the musician wants. Here are just a few of the upgrades
that can be added:
all
tube effects loop
extra
gain boost
remote
foot switch
silicon
and tube rectifier option
add
a master volume control
install
a new premium Mercuy output transformer
multiple
speaker impedance output jacks or selector switch
change
voicing for killer guitar or harp tone
cathode/fixed
power tube bias option
adjustable
fixed bias so you can use un-matched NOS output tube
add
a fat or brite switch
increase clean headroom
boost the low-end response
install
into a custom cabinet
