One 12" speaker. Any combination of speakers can be custom made. Click on photos to see larger image of sample combo amp.
The Longshoreman
Hi and Low input, Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass. Three way boost switch, full boost, top boost or no boost. This amp is made to have a thick, dense tone. The hi and low inputs are similar to a early Marshall. The tone section is also in the Marshall/Tweed Bassman style being a cathode follower. The output is similar to a Fender Tweed, but only in the basic sense, this one running bigger tubes and a lot more power, and just beefier in general. Output is around 30 or so Watts
Tubes:
12AX7 (3)
EL34 (2)
5AR4 (1)
The Varsity
This amp was made after the Longshoreman, needing something to go along with that amp in the studio. This amp is a more Fender black face kind of affair. It also has reverb, but shares the same output as the Longshoreman. On the front; Input, Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass and reverb. This amp also has the three way boost. Output is around 30 or so Watts.

SMALL HEADS OR COMBOS

1. The first is a Vox style small amp, kinda like a cambridge or AC15.
Gain, Treble and Bass, three way boost switch as in all the other amps. Output on this one is around 15 Watts.
Tubes:
12AX7 (2)
EL84 (2)
EZ81 (1)
2. The other small amp is the "5E3 Special", as in the Fender 5E3 Deluxe circuit.
Being a great studio amp, it was one of the first ones to copy to have one in our A room. It was only after change it around many times, we found a amp that worked great for all kinds of things. This amp has the hi and low inputs, this is like putting a whole extra gain stage in front of the amp, so you can get a Neil Young kind of crazy gain. on the front there is; Gain and tone, also, the three way boost switch.
