Silktone Amp

Brands:

$2,499.00

A hand wired, fully single ended circuit based around the KT66 output tube

There's nothing quite like the fullness and raw overdrive of single-ended power tubes. The overdrive is fantastically layered and the cleans are sweet and full even at low volume. The most musical harmonics are retained in a single-ended design, unlike push-pull designs which inherently cancel them out.


A huge range of tones are available with the silktone amp - “Chiffon” mode offers a variety of refined tones from it's TMB tone stack with wide-range Mid control. Cut the mids way back and you get a nice spongy American scooped tone – push the mids and your tone fattens up to the stylings of a bold & dynamic JTM. Push the volume to break up and get a harmonically complex & musical overdrive. “Raw Silk” mode bypasses the tone stack for a huge gain boost – you'll get an incredibly sweet and transparent sound at lower volumes showing off the nuances of your guitar and pedals – push the volume and you can get anything from raw crunch to thick fuzz-like distortion. All of this with a tube driven spring reverb that is as rich as it is versatile. With the combination of the 'Dwell' and 'Mix' controls you can get anything from a smooth & gentle echo to a huge drippy surf effect.
