Selling here my legendary Hughes & Kettner TriAmp MKII, a true flagship boutique amplifier head, hand-built in Germany and widely regarded as one of the most versatile high-end tube amps ever produced. Only 1 piece available! Designed to deliver the sound and feel of multiple classic amplifiers in a single unit, the TriAmp MKII effectively gives you 6 distinct tube amps in one head.
Comparable in prestige and tonal flexibility to amps like the Mesa/Boogie Mark V or Diezel VH4, the TriAmp MKII is known for its enormous dynamic range, premium build quality, and studio-grade tone.
Features
- 100 Watt all-tube head
- 9 × 12AX7 preamp tubes (JJ Electronic)
- 4 × EL34 power tubes (JJ Electronic)
- 6 independent amp voices across 3 channels
- Full MIDI switching via footswitch
- Handcrafted in Germany
- Massive iron transformers and extremely robust construction
The TriAmp MKII essentially functions as 6 classic amps in one, each with its own personality:
Channel 1 – Clean Platform
- 1A: Vintage Californian Clean – sparkling, wide Fender-style clarity
- 1B: Vintage British Clean – warmer, slightly broken-up Vox/Marshall style clean
Channel 2 – Classic Rock
- 2A: Classic British Rock – rich Plexi-style crunch
- 2B: Vintage British Rock – thicker, more saturated classic rock drive
Channel 3 – High Gain
- 3A: British Hot-Rodded – modded Marshall-style lead tones
- 3B: Modern Californian Hi-Gain – tight, saturated modern metal tones
From glassy cleans and dynamic crunch to liquid lead tones and modern high-gain, this amp covers virtually any style without needing pedals.

The amp has been visually inspected and played, so I can only confirm its condition based on this review. I have not disassembled the amp, and the condition description refers solely to what was observed and tested externally. Both the preamp and power tubes are Ruby and both still in very good condition, with approximately 80% of their original lifespan remaining (roughly 20% wear).
