Custom Auron

Based on early '60s Super Amp, this two-channel combo is "tweed" in terms of voicing and both the external and the internal design. However, it also includes many useful updates like e.g. footswitchable channels or master volume & volume boost.

Channel 1 is very straighforward and dynamic.
Channel 2 incorporates the famous "harmonic tremolo".

This rackmount head with separate eq control was quite an engineer's challenge since we had to take advantage of its internal free space carefully, but finally it came up very well :-)
Its 4U of height enabled the power tubes to be mounted vertically on the upper side of chassis and to maximize their life expectancy and overall stability.
Its independent eq and presence controls and MIDI controllable channels, Plexi-mode, FX loop and volume boost push Auron's versatility even further.

Custom Auron

This ultimate four-channel version offers the same sounds as a standard three-channel Auron, but its extended channel strips with separate eq's can satisfy needs of players who demand absolute control of their gear (and who likes to tweak it).

Channel 1 = standard Auron's Clean Mode
Channel 2 = standard Auron's Plexi Mode
Channel 3 = standard Auron's Channel 2
Channel 4 = standard Auron's Channel 3

Channel 3 and Channel 4 eq's are equipped with a footswichable Mid-Boost.

There are also two footswitchable effects loops:
FX Loop 1 = series
FX Loop 2 = parallel

Custom Flagship

Another variaton of a proven recipe. This custom version has a slightly reduced maximum power (45W instead of 50W) and extended power-scaling features. The Full/Half Power Switch lowers the anode voltage of power tubes and enables their earlier breakup.

Tech Note:
Lowering supply voltage is a frequent solution to reduce output power without sacrificing natural tone - if done properly. However, most manufacturers simplify this feature by lowering the supply voltage for the entire hi-voltage rail, which means that both preamp and poweramp supply voltages are reduced. This way, preamp voicing and dynamics can be severely affected.
To minimize the undesired effects, this Auron uses a voltage compensation circuit to maintain the preamp supply voltage at similar levels no matter whether full or half power is engaged.

Also, the eq section was expanded by the addition of a footswitchable Mid-boost, a simple yet powerful feature that lets solos cut through a live mix greatly.

There are many ways to create classic clean and rock sounds. This time we utilised a very unorthodox approach.

Channel one could be described as a "plexi on steroids". It has plenty of gain thanks to a 5879 pentode used for the input section. A six-position tone switch is actually a high-pass filter so that the right amount of bass and lo-mids can be set in order to get thick, yet articulate distortion. At least, but not last, there is no bass-middle-treble equalization: since all eq's of this kind are naturally V-shaped (i.e. mid-cutting), omitting the eq results in much more mids and presence, making it a perfect lead sound.

Channel two uses an archytypal "twiny" topology with its shimmering treble and an essential tube-driven spring reverb.

And then there is probably the most interesting feature, the channel mixing: both preamp channels can be mixed together at a any desired ratio, effectively creating a third channel. This way you can dial e.g. a rhythm sound, mixing rich harmonics of the lead channel with tight, undistorted bass of the clean chanel.

FEATURES:

Channel 1: Volume (w/ a push-pull Gain-boost), Tone, Master

Channel 2: Volume (w/ a push-pull Gain-boost), Treble, Middle, Bass, Reverb

Basically, Greenwreck is a Redwreck with plenty of features added, e.g. an fx-loop, on-board reverb or a footswitchable master volume. Both its channels use identical circuitry, however they are supposed to be used and dialed different ways - channel 1 as a clean and channel 2 as a lead one - hence the implementation of a middle knob.

Redwreck logo

Pretty straightforward and extremely responsive, Redwreck was built with the idea that less is more in mind. Since it is based on AC30's top-boost channel, one might think its main purpose is to deliver clean twangy sound - and it can do so very well. However, once you turn the input volume up, Redwreck comes to a territory of a classic British voiced rock distortion. Its responsiveness is really exceptional which enables to "switch" between clean, crunch and lead sound using just a guitar volume knob.

The colour of the tolex is pretty self-explanatory in this case, whereas the name "Juicer" probably needs some explanation: it is meant to say that "there is a lot of juicy pulp inside"... And maybe also something about how the machine can cope with various species of citrus fruits ;-)

FEATURES:

Channel 1:
A very bright "British" clean tone with shimmering upper harmonics.

Channel 2:
The Juicer's distorted channel is extremely versatile. Its gain knob has an exquisite usable range - from a raw, tight crunch to a hairy hi-gain lead.

Bass, Middle and Treble independent on both channels

Spring Reverb - tube-driven, vintage style circuit

Presence, Depth

The half power mode lowers power tubes' anode voltage to reduce their total power to about a half and to enable earlier power amp compression. However, unlike most similar constructions, this one is a little bit more sophisticated: it compensates the preamp supply voltage drop and power tubes' bias, so that the overall voicing and gain structure does not change dramatically.

This compact hi-gain head was derived directly from our four-channel flagship. We used Flagship's channels 1 and 4 and created this wine-red beauty.

FEATURES:

Channel 1 - Clean:
Clean mode - a transparent clean sound, classic fender topology with eq after the first gain stage

Custom Superior

A very special head that puts two thoroughly different sounds into one amplifier.

FEATURES:

Channel 1 - Vintage Clean & Drive:
Clean mode - a classic American clean inspired by a popular deluxe/deville topology. Not a crystal-clean glassy sound, rather a little dirty, with great harmonics.
Drive mode - turns the Clean mode into a cutting rock-n-roll drive with a simple click of a footswitch. A hot crunch sound that cleans up well with a guitar's volume knob as well.

Channel 2 - Modern Lead:
A perfect opposite of the first channel. Based on the iconic Van Halen modern hi-gain sound, the Lead Channel offers much more gain than you would expect from such a vingate looking amp - truly a wolf in sheep's clothing.

All-tube Series FX Loop, footswitchable

An effect pedal can be placed in a shelf inside the headshell and connected to the fx loop permanently. What's more, the pedal can be powered by an integrated 9V DC power supply, so that you just plug in the footswitch and you can toggle the effect on and off.

Spring Reverb - tube-driven, vintage style circuit with a classic reverb drive transformer and a long spring reverb unit with extra long decay. In the signal path the reverb is placed after the fx loop, which is sonically superior to the before-the-loop solution found in most multi-channel amplifiers. Footswitchable.

One might think that a photo of a 4x12 cabinet crept in by mistake, therefore we add a shot with front grille removed. What are advantages of this unconventional design since lightweight 4x12 cabinets are only a few kilograms heavier? There is a resemblance between guitar cabinets and sportscars: a powerful engine is worthless without adequate suspension, brakes, etc. Similarly, guitar cab require adequete construction to use full speakers' power. Compared to lightest 4x12 cabinets, this huge 2x12 cab can be much stiffer and more resistent to undesired mechanical vibrations, hence tighter and more articulate sounding.

One of the most interesting facts about the famous "Plexi", an archetype of the classic "British sound", is that it originated as a Fender Bassman clone. Today, we can think of it as the perfect example of how very similar circuits (schematics) sounding very unalike due to different components such as tubes, transformers or capacitors. Furthemore, the significance of power supply should not be underestimated since it has a considerable influence on amplifier's frequency response and dynamics.

This handy combo combines Bassman style preamp with a very dynamic 2x6V6 / 20W poweramp (similar to some Deluxe models)

The combo is built of solid pine wood, much like old Fender combos and cabs. In comparison to common plywood construction the solid pine adds some resonce and it is an important ingredient of the appreciated vintage American tone.

FEATURES:

Two Inputs: Input 1 - Normal, Input 2 - Bright (Bassman style, "low" inputs omitted)

Gain 1 - Normal, Gain 2 - Bright; the inputs can be blended together at any required ratio

Bass, Middle and Treble Controls

Master Volume Control enables to get nice overdriven tones at bedroom volumes

Classic Bassman / Plexi style Presence Control

SPECIFICATIONS:

Preamp: 2x ECC83 (12AX7)

Poweramp: 1x JJ ECC81 (12AU7), 2x JJ 6V6S / 20W

Speaker: Celestion Classic Lead, 80W, 99dB
(the customer's choice in order to minimize speaker distortion at higher volumes; a vintage style speaker with an AlNiCo magnet could be a great option as well)

Dimensions (W/H/D): 470 x 440 x 230 mm
