From Fender's Website

The ’57 Twin amplifier—one of the most collectible amps of all time—is the latest member of our acclaimed Custom Series family. Its harmonically rich clean tones are great for vintage rock, blues and country; crank it up for fat, sophisticated distortion.

This all-tube combo amp has hand-wired circuitry; we’ve even reproduced the 1955-57 edition “low powered” 5E8A circuit, which puts 40 watts into a pair of 12” alnico-magnet speakers. Power comes from a pair of GT6L6 output tubes and Fender’s rarely seen mid-’50s dual rectifier arrangement (using 5U4 rectifier tubes). With this design, power amp compression or “sag” is more subtle than in many Fender tweed designs. The Twin’s preamp contains four high-gain 12AX7 tubes, three of which may be substituted with 12AY7s for the original ’50s low-gain sound. An internal bias pot allows easy substitution of various 6L6 types. Control panel details include normal and bright volumes, four inputs (two normal; two bright), treble, bass and presence knobs.

The ’57 Twin’s finger-joined solid pine cabinet resonates with a warm, woody tone. The amp is covered in genuine lacquered tweed fronted with vintage brown/gold grille cloth. Leather strap handle on top and fitted cover included.

Having been in the boutique amp business since its inception in the early 90's I've found myself in the unique and fortunate position of helping bring to market a few amplifiers which have reached iconic status amongst modern players. I've learned to recognize these amps when I play them and the new PRS Sweet 16 is one of those amplifiers.

Destined to please a wide variety of players and to have long-lasting staying power in the market place, this new amplifier is as good as any single channel amp I have played yet unique enough to carve out its own niche in the amplifier collections of my clients.

With the Sweet 16, PRS has brought to market a beautifully designed, amazing sounding, amplifier at 16 watts that combines the clean tone qualities and gain qualities of some of my favorite amplifiers with Doug Sewell's personal sonic touches in one small, reasonably priced package that looks stunning and is gorgeously constructed both inside and out.

The cleans have the absolute perfect amount of compression on the initial attack that gives the amp that wonderful feel under the fretting fingers....the feel that I describe as reminding me of squeezing water out of a sponge.

The initial compression releases at just the right moment which is critical for attaining that perfect degree of bloom up and out of the speaker cabinet and swirl around the room with that surround sound type of ambient greatness. I have only ever experienced this from a handful of other, single channel amps....none of which have the incredibly smooth and thick overdrive tones of this amplifier.

The reverb circuit has a warmth to it that augments the clean tones perfectly without ever getting in the way unless you want it to via higher setting of the potentiometer. It fills out the room with a wonderful multi-dimensional quality while laying behind the fundamentals in a way that is very transparent and unobtrusive.

With gradual increases of the Volume control the amp morphs from pushed cleans that allow the player to control the amp via pick attack, through mild overdrive that is sweet and smooth, thick and complex and ultimately into higher gain sonic territory with very chewy, meaty overdrive with wonderful definition. This is not a gain tone to hide behind, but one to emphasize your skills or, perhaps, make you a better player; there's no cascading gain with infinite sustain here; just honest power tube distortion with richness, clarity and meat.

As is common in today's flooded boutique amp segment of the marketplace, on paper this amp will seem to be similar to many other offerings by other boutique builders, but the range and quality of lush, swirly and harmonically complex cleans to pushed, mild overdrive to singing lead tones via a single channel amplifier has got to be experienced to be fully appreciated.

The Sweet 16 ultimately is more of a musical instrument than a mere amplifier and possesses the very broad range of tones typically only found in dual-channel amps costing twice as much.

I can tell you that after 16 years of not just selling, but actually consulting with amp designers and personally bringing some of today's most iconic boutique amplifiers to market that it takes a lot to impress me. This amp has blown me away and it will do the same for you.

We had these cabinets made to match the PRS/Sewell Sweet 16 head perfectly. The tolexes are identical and the sonic combination is the best we have heard yet.

Daniel Klein's standard Oversized 112 speaker cab with internal Wave Technology covered in black and white tolex with Celestion Vintage 30.

The Port City 112 Oversized, "Wave" technology cabinet is our reference 112 cabinet.

It just works flawlessly with every amp/guitar combination we have tried.

Nice touches such as the recessed, top mounted, metal handle and recessed chrome Port City logo make this cab both functional and attractive.

It's also wide enough that most heads will fit on top of it perfectly.

What really makes this cab work though is an internal construction technique that eliminates standing waves in the cabinet. This makes the cab bigger sounding than it is, smooths out any unwanted harshness or fatiguing frequencies in the upper midrange and, in general, give the cabinet a larger presence.

The standard speaker is a Celestion Vintage 30 at 8 Ohms which works very well because when used with this cab you get the advantages of the V30 which are: a 30 watt break up point for nice speaker interaction, 65 watts of handling ability and none of the upper mid issues this speaker has a reputation for; the Wave technology eliminates that problem completely

This is one truly astonishing sounding amplifier.

When I started playing the clean tones my first thought was..."OMG.....that's Roy Buchanan's Tone!!!"

My second thought was..."I've "never ever" heard his tone out of any amp unless he was plugged in to it.

I was nailing the clean tones from the "You're Not Alone" album; one of the albums that made me want to become a guitarist.

• There is so much to explore with this amp:
  
• It's loaded with a pair of EL84's and a pair of 6V6's. You can run just 6V6 tubes or just the EL84 pair or combine the two
  
• You can swap the 6V6 tubes for EL34's, 6L6's or 5881's (haven't tried that yet, but will if I get a chance before the amp sells!)
  
• The "C" version of this amp allows for the selection of either Pentode or Triode Mode for either the Octal (in this case 6V6) tubes or EL84 power tubes independently or you can run either set of tubes in whichever mode sounds best to you and creates the wattage you need. So, you can have more power from just the 6V6 tubes or just the EL84 tubes or less power from either set depending on your preference and the environment in which you are playing.
  
• The power design is cathode biased with no negative feedback employeed.
  
• Two channels give a range of tones from gorgeously lush cleans to extremely think and syrupy overdrive that is simply......FAT Sounding.
  
• You can select the clean or overdrive channels independently or use them simultaneously and you have a separate volume control for each tube set; one for the octal tubes and one for the EL84 set.
  
• The front panel contains a bright switch for each channel which adds high-end response to the pre-amp section and works in conjunction with the Volume control; lower volume settings result in a more pronounced effect.
  
• You have Treble, Bass and Mid controls which are augmented by a Global Tone control which effects both channels.
  
• There is also the Dumble style EQ lift switch to remove the EQ from the circuit for a more pure signal path. This creates a thicker sound with a lot more gain.
  
• The reverb control adjusts the effect level of the reverb which has a medium decay and a very warm sound.
  
• Channel 2 also has a Gain switch to add a fair amount of push when higher overdrive settings are desired.
  
• The amp comes with the Footswitch Boost pedal. This footswitch allows for additional, variable, external boosting of either channel.
  
• The amp also utilizes the London Power Scaling feature which lowers the voltage of each set of tubes individually thereby reducing their output for lower volume playing with minimal sonic loss or simply for more "push" earlier on in the volume range.
  
• Let me be frank, this amp takes some getting to know and a thorough read through or two of the included owner's manual is a good idea. This is not to say that you *have* to read the manual to get phenomenal tones as I was up and running with some of the best tones I have ever heard without ever looking at the manual. However, to get the most out of the amp and to fully understand everything it is capable of I highly recommend familiarizing yourself with the manual at least a day or two after receiving the amp!

General Description

Frome Orange's website:

"All valve, 50watt channel switching combo, with valve FX loop and valve driven reverb. This unit incorporates the 50w Rockerverb head in a high quality constructed cabinet using 13 ply high density 18mm birch plywood. Loaded with two heavy duty 12" Celestion "Vintage 30" loud speakers. The combo incorporates the new exclusive F8 concept in output transformer design."

With the same preamp stages as it's 100 watt bigger brother, the Rockerverb 50 allows you to achieve the sweet spot sooner in the volume sweep for a more appropriate gig level sweet spot.

The clean channel - The clean channel  features interactive bass and treble controls. This channel is more than capable of pushing out loud punchy clean tones and yet can still be driven to achieve a moderate, classic crunch.

The Dirty Channel - 4 stages of all tube overdrive. The dirty channel goes from crystal clean right through shades of vintage British to full on overdrive that provides controlled feedback at any volume level.

Reverb - Newly designed tube driven, tube returned Reverb circuit gives the Rockerverb reverb a sparkling chime never heard before from an Orange amplifier. It features the industry standard, Accutronics 3 spring reverb tank.

Effects Loop - Tube buffered, tube returned. Orange pioneered the effects loop back in the 1970's and has designed a very transparent fx loop for their new generation of amplifiers.

Tube Failure Protection - Should one power tube fail during a performance, the tube failure protection system will kick in and allow you to continue playing at half power.  There is an LED to let you know which pair of tubes has been effected.

Hi / Low Damping - The Rockerverb 50 features a Hi / Low damping selector. This controls the amount of current to the power tubes. Switch it to Hi to tighten the sound of the amplifier. Lo gives you a looser sound.

Speakers - The Rockerverb 50 combo is loaded with two Celestion Vintage 30 12" speakers.

The Galaxie is a relatively radical departure for Dr Z Amplifiers on a few levels, but more of the same on a couple levels.

This amp features the newly available Triad transformer as used on the original Tweed Super and Pro amplifiers. The Triad used in conjunction with dual GT-6L6GE power tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes creates clean tones that are amazingly pristine, shimmery and sweet and very reminiscent of an early tweed design, but with a greater degree of refinement and an extremely tight and focused low end. When pushed hard the clean channel slowly morphs into a more modern sounding pushed clean with the characteristics that today's players have come to expect from modern, boutique designs. In other words, no mush in the low end and a fluid, smooth top end with a hint of growl and wonderfully touch sensitive dynamics.

This is the first time I have ever heard truly Fender style cleans from a Dr Z amplifier.

In attempting to solve the age old Fender problem of a flabby low end at volume, most amp designers tend to remove some of their amplifiers low mids. This tightens up the amp, but unfortunately also tends to create a more sterile tone without the bubbly percussiveness that is part of what makes the original Fenders so much fun to play and so sweet sounding.

The clean channel of the Galaxie has no such compromises. You get all the reedy, sweet, percussiveness and shimmery clean of a Classic Fender *and* a tight, focused low end.

The second channel is a major revelation for anyone who has desired a refined and smooth yet properly aggressive British style gain tone from a Dr Z amplifier and have either found his previous offerings not quite gainy enough or a bit too hard/revealing in the upper midrange. The gain channel of the Galaxie offers simply awesome gain tones that sing and sustain for days with the perfect amount of mid content to sit nicely in a mix, a rock-n-roll style aggression in the top end without a trace of harshness or buzz and a low end wallop that you can feel in your chest with every low note played.

Overall the gain channel offers the most overdrive ever from a Dr Z. It is tight, focused, singing and smooth with effortless pinch harmonics and a 3-D complexity that is simply amazing.

The Galaxie has a single 8 ohm output as dictated by the vintage American style Triad transformer, an external speaker output and a very useable triode/pentode switch which can either be set to triode to emphasize the amp's vintage leanings or to pentode to make the amp slightly tighter, more open and focused. A single button footswitch for changing channels is also included.

So what's this about "more of the same"? Well......for starters all of this new Dr Z goodness at a price point that even a working musician can afford. The amp has typical Dr Z construction which means it will last for decades with Swiss watch reliability for even the hardest working musicians and, Like all Dr Z amps, it won't require an EE degree to operate. The amps simple interface consists of nothing more than a shared presence, bass and treble control and a single volume control for each channel. I found zero compromises with the shared EQ arrangements. When the clean channel was dialed in for the perfect tone with a given guitar, the gain channel was likewise ideally EQ'd. It was also easy to get the proper volume/gain balance between the two channels.

For any player who has wanted an ultimate dual channel amp with sweet Fender 50's clean tones on one channel and modified British gain on the second in an easy to dial in, beautifully built and affordable package........you may have just found amp Nirvana!

Originally sold via my shop when we were the only dealer where the Non-Reverb version of this amplifier was available, hence the Fat Sound Guitars sticker on the rear panel which is how they shipped from Dr Z during that time frame.

This amplifier was owned by an American who spent enough time in Germany on business that he wanted a European specific MAZ 18 NR to take with him.

We've tested it with an external power transformer to make sure it works flawlessly and it checks out just as good as new, but with the better tone that the Dr  Z 10" speakers acquire once they have been thoroughly broken-in.

Black tolex with the original "tan" grille cloth which is a more Fender style cloth than what Dr Z currently uses.

If you have an interest in this amp please email us with your complete shipping address and we will quote shipping rates via three different transit companies for you to choose from.

We ship to Europe every week and know how to take care of all paperwork so that there are no problems clearing customs etc.....

The EZG-50 head offers 50 watts of the definitive American 6L6 clean tone, but in an amp also capable of tremendous levels of gain.

The low end is enormous.....bigger than in any previous Dr Z design and can be dialed in for the big legged lows made famous by the venerable Black face amps or can be shut down when bass is at zero for a tighter, more focused low end more in line with what you'll need for the amps higher gain tones.

The EZG-50 is an amp that truly morphs from big, bold American cleans to hotrod British style flavors, but with a denser, more creamy low to mid midrange structure.

The design of the EZG-50 includes a new 6L6 specific transformer designed for Dr Z Amps by Ken Fischer.

NOS Allen Bradley carbon comp resistors are used throughout the amplifier in all critical tone positions. These classic resistors add a beautiful warmth and depth to the overall tone of the amp.

The EZG-50 also offers an all tube, two knob reverb circuit with Depth and Mix controls allowing you to take the amp from none dry in it's higher gain settings to Black Face lush to Fender stand alone surf.

As Z himself says......"the EZG-50 is the Black Face head that never was."

I would agree with that wholeheartedly!

The Stone Pony has 65's-"Bump" front-end but runs on 7591's like the old Ampegs from the 60's. They have a very unique and cool sound. 65 Amps design team have been wanting to do this amp ever since the London was first released.

The transformers have been optimized for 7591's by working closely with Mercury Magnetics and have nailed the old 7591 format only with a much enhanced vocablulary. It has a very pleasant and pronounced mid-range notch that is instantly recognizable and VERY friendly!

The Stone Pony includes 65's ingenious "Master Voltage" knob that will reduce the B+ voltage and output in the amp in a unique way. It's unique in that it keeps the internal tube relationships perfect while keeping the filament voltage up. After seeing all other power schemes' shortcomings, 65 came at this from a different angle and we're very pleased with the results. You can dial this amp down to 3 watts output WITHOUT losing tone, feel, vocabulary, authority, etc.

"The classic 7591 heads of the 60's (i.e., Ampegs) always had a gorgeous low end to them. Big like an EL34, but with more of the piano-like quality of a 6L6 and smoother in the top end like a 6CA4.

However, I always found the mids to be slightly hard and airless. The first thing that struck me when I plugged into the Stone Pony was that it had the low end of the Ampegs but an extremely swirly quality to the mids that I would normally attribute to a 6L6 amp.

The mids to me are always where the charm comes into the tone. It's the hair around the note and the thing that your ears ultimately find the most pleasing or displeasing depending on the character. It's where the overtones come in and it's where the feedback swells and becomes a tool.

Normally I have to sacrifice a little low end and top end to get into the pleasing range in the mids that really bring out the character of the amp, but in the case of the Stone Pony I get it all. It's balanced from top to bottom, making it an amazing amp for rhythm tones with any guitar, single coil or humbucking.

Though not a 2 channel amp per se, the bump function allows me to dial in a great footswitchable lead tone, slightly more aggressive and at the volume level of my choosing, that cuts right through the center of a band. With the Master Voltage control, you can dial in the amp exactly how you like it, dial back the volume when the sound man yells at your for being too loud, and your tone is where you started.....everyone is happy.
Tremendous versatility and a character all its own....a great amp for live or studio work."

This amp was sent to SuperFine Ampwork's, Tim Ristau's company for complete evaluation and tune-up. Tim is well known in the Triangle area as one of the best amp tech's around and has worked for Carr Amplifiers for many years. He's our go to guy for vintage Fender evaluation, repair, etc.....

Work performed by SuperFine

• Sonic and electrical evaluation of all key components including tubes, speakers, etc
• Cleaning of controls, jacks, tube sockets
• Tube socket retensioning
• Assessing internal circuit condition
• Evaluation of physical condition and originality of cabinet, chassis etc

Replaced parts

• Under the "Too Good To Be True heading, Tim and I agree that the faceplate and grill cloth appear in a condition that is not in keeping with the age of the amp and believe them to have been replaced by reproduction items.
• Upper rear panel appears to be non-original and is perhaps from a Black Face Head
• Old caster holes on underside of cabinet have been filled
• Footswitch is a modern Fender reproduction unit
• Original 4AB3C1B reverb tank has been replaced/upgraded to a 3 spring 9AB2C1B type
• Speakers are Eminence Red Coats - Sound excellent and work very well with this circuit/amplifier
• Power cord has been replaced with modern, heavy gauge, 3 prong cord

Originality

• All transformers appear to be original and date codes are correct for the '65-'66 era
• Serial number and various date codes found throughout point to the amp being an authentic Black Face era amp and not a converted Silver Face model
• All electrolytic filter and bypass caps have been replaced by good quality Sprague types and should last a long time (this falls under the heading of general/expected maintenance)
• All of the coveted, original "blue molded" coupling caps are present and functioning well
• Circuit appears to be stock and the few resistors that have been changed have been replaced with proper carbon comp types of correct value

"One of those rare amps that simply inspires me to play and play and play. Every time I plug in to the London I start coming up with new stuff....breaking out of my rut.

It is an amazing amplifier that has shades of 18 watt Marshall as well as Vox AC 15/30, but yet still manages to keep it's own personality and bring something wholly new and fresh to the boutique amp game."

The original Fender Deluxe amp of the 1950s was a medium-powered amp that found its way onto countless smokin’-hot live and recorded performances. Over the past 50 years, from Memphis to Liverpool to Austin, Texas, players of many styles have prized it for its awesome and unmistakable warmth and rich tube tone.

An authentic recreation of one of our most beloved guitar amps, the ’57 Deluxe is a 12-watt, hand-wired tube amplifier with a 12” Jensen® P-12Q speaker. The two 6V6 output tubes, acclaimed 5E3 circuit and solid pine cabinet all contribute to the ’57 Deluxe’s resonant, touch-sensitive performance. Vintage fitted cover included.

Features:

• Hand-wired all-tube circuitry on eyelet board,
• Late 1950s 5E3 circuit produces about 12 watts,
• Mic and Instrument channels; Each channel has individual volume controls and High & Low inputs,
• 12" Alnico-magnet Jensen P-12Q speaker as used in the original,
• Matched pair of Groove Tubes™ GT6V6 output tubes,
• 5Y3GT rectifier tube helps provide natural compression or "sag",
• Two 12AX7 preamp tubes, one of which may be substituted with a 12AY7 for the original '50s lower-gain sound, if desired,
• Standby switch added in place of the 1950s-issue polarity switch,
• Finger-joined solid Pine cabinet resonates with a warm, woody tone,
• Genuine Lacquered Tweed covering with vintage brown/gold grille cloth,
• Leather strap handle

This particular amplifier was bought by its original owner as a backup to the first XTC Classic he purchased from me. The original XTC Classic never had any issues therefore this one was never really used other than initial testing to insure that it sounded as good as his primary amp.

One of the all-time great Channel switching amps and easily our best selling three channel amp since its release. The XTC Classic is a truly astounding amp with three perfect channels that cover an extremely wide range of musical genres. Born out of a demand from Bogner enthusiasts for a reissue of the original Bogner 100, the 101B Classic is considered by many touring and recording guitarists to be the ultimate multi-channel amplifier when versatility and dependability are a necessity and phenomenal tone is essential.

XTC Classic versus 101B

The Classic is a bit less compressed and more open sounding so it cuts through a loud rock mix better. The Plexi mode is more authentic sounding, the third channel slightly more useable and the clean tones a little bit more lush.

From Bogner:

"Slightly changed pre-amp combined with different filtering in the power supply offers a more woody attack and blooming sustain that overall gives a rich 3D open sound with a less compressed feel than our Ecstasy 101. Plus! the Classic has a really classy chrome plated front panel."

This is the predecessor to Tone King's current metropolitan model. There has been a lengthy line of succession from the venerable Comet, through the various Meteor series amps to the fully realized Metropolitan offered by Tone King today, but there is something very sweet and musical about the original Comet series amplifiers that draws American Amp fans out of the woodwork whenever one of these appears on the used market.

• 40 watts derived from a quad of 6V6 power tubes (just retubed with Tung-Sol tubes)

• Two 12" Tone King "1891" model 60 wat speakers

• Rhythm Channel offers beautiful Black Face tones with a more focused low end.

• Lead Channel delivers a smoother version of a cranked Tweed tone

• Lush, spring reverb that can be set for mild ambiance or full-on surf's up

This is a classic amp for blues, jazz and classic rock and is very lightweight and portable for a 212 combo. A fantastic amp for small to medium club use or for just getting great Americana tones around the house.

We sold this amp when new to an acoustic guitar player who wanted to "try electric for a while". I believe he put less than 10 hours on this amp. It looks absolutely brand new.

The photos above are from our listing in the Swart section, but the amp for sale looks identical to this one.....no scuffs, dings, scratches or........dust.

One of our top sellers of all times with over 70 sold the first 90 days these were available and hundreds sold since with an enormous fan base.

"Unbelievable sounding 20 watter with a single 12" speaker, wonderfully rich vintage style tremolo, deep reverb and amazing tone. Regardless of what type or types of guitars you play, the touch sensitivity, dynamics, swell, musical compression....everything about this amp....will just blow you away. The cleans are so incredibly lush and swirly that you feel as if they might just carry you away. Little harmonic faries seem to fill the room behind every note.

The clean tones morph gradually in to a singing, pushed clean which morph into a very think, chewy overdrive with just a touch of 50's Fullerton style bark, but don't let the tweed covering and 6V6 power tube set fool you; this is no Tweed clone......it's a magical amp that makes its own mark on amplifier history and a permanent part of my personal amplifier collection.

I have had more fun playing this amp. My 60's Strat, Grosh Electrajet, R7 Historic Les Paul and MotorAve LeMans have rarely been played so good! Don't ya just love an amp that makes you play over your head and inspires you to break out of your rut? The Atomic Space Tone offers enough volume, headroom and dynamics for small club use, but even at 20 watts I find it fairly useable around the house. When used with Swart's Night Light I can play well in to the wee hours even after the kids are asleep."

Stu Carter - owner, Fat Sound Guitars

"We waited a long time to get this right but we finally found something that equaled the tone and perfect placement of the original Swart ST-6V6se "Space Tone," but with 20w of twin 6V6/6L6 power in high Class A biased AB. This beast has the goods with TUBE REVERB and TUBE TREMOLO, something virtually non-existent in today's marketplace. With an amazing 12" Custom British Vintage Series BV-25m that screams TONE with body, soul, and OUTPUT. This all new circuit is housed in a lacquered TWEED pine cab with oxblood clothed sides. This amp is in its own league."

Michael Swart - owner/designer Swart Amplifier Company

• The AC is cleaned and rectified by the reliable JJ 5AR4, this a very robust tube providing excellent sonics due to the total lack of solid-state circuits in the rectification stage (SS rectification leads to a more hard/harsh tone and slams the tubes on power-up causing excess tube wear). A heavy duty, JJ 500V Surface mount capacitor is the mains filtering device.
• Powered by Twin EH 6v6's putting out 18-22 cathode biased Watts; the twin 6V6s seem to really put out an amazing mixture of soul~tone. We love this combo! (You can also sub 6L6s for a bit more headroom due to the extra beefy Heyboer Power Transformer,
• A 12AX7 does duty as the driver and bias regulated Tremolo. Ever heard tube tremolo? You will now. Simply put, if you're a tremolo fan, you won't go back.
• Reverb is all tube. Tube Reverb is the only way to go and our implementation leaves the competition sounding two-dimensional.
• The first preamp tube is another dedicated rocking 12AX7 to drive this beast to Mount St. Helens and back. Our whole driver/preamp circuit has been optimized from months of testing. The AST sings like no other.

This is the original version of the venerable Bogner Shiva. The incredibly succesfull production life of this amp was about 10 years. There have been revisions to the Bogner Shiva since this amp was built (including seperate boosts for each channel, adjustable boost level for channel 2 and a bright switch for channel 1) and the new 20th Anniversary edition is a huge step forward in terms of versatility, but for years this was one of the best selling amps we carried and for good reason: it sounds fantastic.

First released around 1997 this model was considered the ultimate dual channel amp when it hit the market and continues to offer fantastic cleans on CH1 and excellent, Classic Rock and Blues style gain on CH2.

The Dual Reverb option was considered a "Must Have" and sounds wonderfully rich and airy.

At just under $1500.00 you won't find a better sounding two channel amp and this one looks like the day it was orginally sold.

if you can afford the upgraded version, or certainly a new 20th Anniversary model, then buy one, but if this price range is more in line with your budget you will definitely not be dissapointed by the sound of this amplifier. It is an original, ultra high-end, American Boutique amp at a great price.

A steal of a deal on a fantastic amplifier!

Covered in two-tone Charcoal and Red sparkle tolex this is a standout amplifier and is in beautiful condition having never left the original owner's home.

The Hot Cat remains my favorite Bad Cat amplifier and offers a wonderful range of shimmery cleans to extreme gain.

The 212 cabinet is loaded with a pair of Bad Cat midified Celestion Vintage 30 12" speakers.

Guitar Player magazine "Editors Pick" award winner.

From Bad Cat's website:

2 Channel, Gain and Clean : Dual Speaker Outs
Speaker Impedance Selector

The Hottest of all Cats. The concept and function of the Hot Cat is new, unique, and unlike any model ever produced by Bad Cat. The 12AX7 based pre-amp affords some overdrive loading if desired via the clean input, as well as sweep control of the clearly emphasized overdrive high gain input.

Control knobs include: Clean Volume, Gain, Edge, Level, Bass, Treble, Brilliance, and Gain Master Volume.

The power section supports a continuous thick overdrive speaker power and a strong reserve of clean headroom. The 15 Watt using dual EL84’s, the 30 Watt dual EL34's. In contrast to other Class A models to date, as regards extraordinary sound possibilities, the Hot Cat runs appreciably ahead of the pack. 

Bogner XTC 101B head in flawless condition.

Slightly more compressed than the Classic version, this amp's overdrive tones over a somewhat creamier gain tone versus the more open and mildly more agressive overdrive tones of The Classic version. 3 Channels: CH1 (Green) Clean which can be dialed in for a pristine, shimmery clean tone with plenty of headroom....even with humbucker guitars.....and a nice glassy low end reminiscent of the big, bold cleans of the late 60's 100 watt British amps.

By applying the boost to this channel either with the face plate mounted switch or the included 7 button footswitch you can get a more pushed, denser clean. CH2 (Blue) With a myriad of ways to dial in your gain this channel will range from late 60's British crunch in Plexi mode, through Early 80's JCM800 gain levels and in to more modern, modified British tones. I live for this tone. When I discovered this amp, the Blue channel ended my multi decade long search for the ultimate overdrive/gain tone. CH3 (Red) Essentially it's the Blue channel with a bit more of everything. Since the Blue channel set to High Gain Structure mode sounds perfect to me and is all the gain I would ever use, I typically have the Red channel set to Plexi mode which essentially makes it my Channel 2 in terms of gain progression.

Specifications:

• 4 x EL34 power tubes
• 3 Channels with Boost for channel one and shared boost for Channels 2 and 3
  
• Plexi Mode selectable for channel 2 or 3
• PreampGain switches for all three channels allowing gain to come in at user selectable top end frequency ranges
• Overall Hi Gain/Lo Gain switch for Channels 2 and 3
• Assignable Presence and Excursion controls
  
• Half power switch
  
• New/Old (Pentode/Triode) Style switch
• Footswitchable standby and series or parallel fx loop
  
• Variable Line Out 

This is a feature laden amp, but I promise you that unlike most amps with lot's of modes, switches etc....the XTC is very intuitive to dial in. After you find *your* tones you'll discover that the amp sounds consistent from day to day. Just dial in your settings and there's the tone you remember having last time you played

We love the multiple personality of this amp:

With both channel's gains at about 9:00 to 9:30 you get two perfect channels for a more Classic Rock / Blues Rock tone.

With this setting, CH1 has all of the adjectves you'd normally apply to a Classic Late 60's Big Iron Marshall......Huge, Bold, Glassy, Punchy, Thick. CH2 is similar to the XTC Classic's Second Channel with a great level of gain that works for Rock and even overdriven Blues tones and definitely for lead work. The amp sounds *amazing* this way with a great Strat.

On the other hand......dial the gains up and you have incredibly thick crunch on CH1 that can morph in to a full on Metal tone very easily and CH2 can be dialed up for completely insane levels of gain that somehow never manage to get overly compressed or lose definition.....must be teh Big Glass.

Dialed in for Hard Rock or Modern Metal, the low end is so intense and so tight that it can make you nauseous.

Two Channels of rock crushing distortion with wonderful articulation.

Infinite sustain without any mush or overly compressed lead tones.

This is a lot more amp, with much greater verstaility than I would have ever expected based on my experience with the original Uber. 

Specifications:

• Two channel all tube design with Fiber optic backlight
• Global Depth, Presence and Master Volume
• Each channel has Independent: Volume, Gain, Bass, Treble, Middle, & Presence controls
• Tube buffered effects loop with mute switch
• Line-Out jack
• Foot-switchable channel switching and effects loop mute (footswitch included)

The Galaxie is a relatively radical departure for Dr Z Amplifiers on a few levels, but more of the same on a couple of levels.

This amp features the newly available Triad transformer as used on the original Tweed Super and Pro amplifiers. The Triad used in conjunction with dual GT-6L6GE power tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes creates clean tones that are amazingly pristine, shimmery and sweet and very reminiscent of an early tweed design, but with a greater degree of refinement and an extremely tight and focused low end. When pushed hard the clean channel slowly morphs into a more modern sounding pushed clean with the characteristics that today's players have come to expect from modern, boutique designs. In other words, no mush in the low end and a fluid, smooth top end with a hint of growl and wonderfully touch sensitive dynamics.

This is the first time I have ever heard truly Fender style cleans from a Dr Z amplifier.

In attempting to solve the age old Fender problem of a flabby low end at volume, most amp designers tend to remove some of their amplifiers low mids. This tightens up the amp, but unfortunately also tends to create a more sterile tone without the bubbly percussiveness that is part of what makes the original Fenders so much fun to play and so sweet sounding.

The clean channel of the Galaxie has no such compromises. You get all the reedy, sweet, percussiveness and shimmery clean of a Classic Fender *and* a tight, focused low end.

The second channel is a major revelation for anyone who has desired a refined and smooth yet properly aggressive British style gain tone from a Dr Z amplifier and have either found his previous offerings not quite gainy enough or a bit too hard/revealing in the upper midrange. The gain channel of the Galaxie offers simply awesome gain tones that sing and sustain for days with the perfect amount of mid content to sit nicely in a mix, a rock-n-roll style aggression in the top end without a trace of harshness or buzz and a low end wallop that you can feel in your chest with every low note played.

Overall the gain channel offers the most overdrive ever from a Dr Z. It is tight, focused, singing and smooth with effortless pinch harmonics and a 3-D complexity that is simply amazing.

The Galaxie has a single 8 ohm output as dictated by the vintage American style Triad transformer, an external speaker output and a very useable triode/pentode switch which can either be set to triode to emphasize the amp's vintage leanings or to pentode to make the amp slightly tighter, more open and focused. A single button footswitch for changing channels is also included.

So what's this about "more of the same"? Well......for starters all of this new Dr Z goodness at a price point that even a working musician can afford. The amp has typical Dr Z construction which means it will last for decades with Swiss watch reliability for even the hardest working musicians and, Like all Dr Z amps, it won't require an EE degree to operate. The amps simple interface consists of nothing more than a shared presence, bass and treble control and a single volume control for each channel. I found zero compromises with the shared EQ arrangements. When the clean channel was dialed in for the perfect tone with a given guitar, the gain channel was likewise ideally EQ'd. It was also easy to get the proper volume/gain balance between the two channels.

For any player who has wanted an ultimate dual channel amp with sweet Fender 50's clean tones on one channel and modified British gain on the second in an easy to dial in, beautifully built and affordable package........you may have just found amp Nirvana!
