The Naked Gater 30 Watt Vox Circuit Tube Amp
The Naked Gater 30 Watt Tube Combo Amp, a hand-wired masterpiece, is exclusively crafted for Bootlegger Guitar by Ken Kim Muse in South Korea. This amp is the result of a collaborative design between Ken and me, showcasing top-notch engineering. Our goal was to create a clean, chime amp that, when cranked up, would unleash a natural tube crunch—perfect for blues and blues rock.
While it’s based on a Vox tube circuit, what sets this amp apart is its built-in drive effect, which pushes the tubes into distortion. This versatility makes it suitable for various music genres. For instance, if you’re into death metal, you can use a pedal in front of the amp to intensify the clean sound into tube madness.
The gain control is a push-pull pot that provides precise control over the drive effect. When the pot is up (Gain off), it regulates the desired amount of drive. When fully disengaged (Gain on), it adjusts the gain input, amplifying the analog crunch from the tubes. Additionally, you can fine-tune the drive level by adjusting the guitar’s volume. The Naked Gator also features a full EQ and a deep, luscious analog spring reverb.
