Matchless Avalon 30 - UNIQUE 2-channel version (2009)

For sale: Highly unique Matchless Avalon 30 set (2009).While the standard Avalon is a single-channel amplifier, this unit is a custom-run confirmed by Phil Jamison (Matchless) with 2 channels—one of only 5 ever built. The amplifier was recently serviced and inspected by a professional amp technician.

I will not ship this amp & cab. Local pickup only! Offers below 2.000 euro will be rejected.

2 ChannelsUnlike the regular Avalon, this head features two distinct channels: a 12AX7 channel and an EF86 channel. This makes it sonically comparable to the classic HC-30.In international reviews (e.g., Premier Guitar), the Avalon is highly praised for the following strengths:

Unparalleled Clean & Chime: Users describe the clean sounds as "three-dimensional" with a beautiful harmonic bloom typical of Matchless, but with a slightly tighter, more controlled low end.

Touch Sensitivity: The amp is extremely dynamic. You can easily transition from sparkling cleans to rich overdrive simply by adjusting your playing style or your guitar's volume knob.

Master Volume Performance: The push/pull master volume on the Avalon is highly effective, maintaining tone even at lower levels.

The set includes:

Avalon 30 Head (2-channel): Includes an email from Phil Jamison confirming its rarity (a limited run of only 5 units).

Matchless 2x12 Cabinet: Matching, original cabinet.

Channel Switch Pedal & Reverb Switch: The footswitch is a genuine Matchless pedal, though it was not originally bundled with this specific amp.
