Features of this amp

Don’t be fooled by the road-worn exterior, the amp inside uses hand selected high-end components. This single-ended amp has exquisite clarity and iconic tone. It features one 6L6GC, one 12AX7, a high-performance, shielded power transformer, high-end vintage-voiced output transformer and top-of-the-line components throughout the circuit. In homage to the cabinet - a vintage hallway speaker dating to the mid-1950s - we named this amplifier the Enunciator (which we borrowed from the first commercially available PA system).

Vintage cabinet with one-of-a-kind roadworn aesthetic. This vintage speaker cabinet has been aged to perfection over 60+ years. (The original Jensen speakers dated to 1956.) Look closely, and you can even see a second paint color (a deep red) peeking through the mint green.
