Wampler Bravado 40-Watt Hand-Wired Guitar Amp Head & Cab

Brian Wampler has taken his intimate knowledge of circuits and built the Bravado from the ground up, designed to be the ultimate high-headroom clean pedal platform.

The Bravado is equipped with 6L6 power tubes and delivers 40 watts of clarity that works well with nearly every pedal, making it sound exactly how you expect it to - perfect. Unlike almost every other amp on the market, the Bravado is engineered to give players warmth and natural tube compression that gels with all types of pedals, whether a simple boost or massive distortion.

When it comes to the EQ, the Bravado provides a multitude of tweakable tones. A wide range three-band EQ sculpts any pedalboard while the Friedman designed buffered effects loop is the perfect place for your delay/reverb effects.

The Fat switch which gives your signal chain a ballsy push in the midrange without being nasally. Two positions provide varying levels of midrange enhancement and extra gain for players looking for a brawnier tone.

Wampler found that amps with bright switches were either too bright or too dark, and so a multi-position bright switch rounds out the EQ controls. Six positions of brightness let you dial in just the right amount to liven up your chain before the power section gives it what for.

The Bravado is expertly handwired in Los Angeles, CA and loaded with top-shelf components for optimal tone. 

The Bravado 1X12 is built with tongue and groove Baltic Birch construction to deliver the bass, mid response, high end clarity and clear distinct tone. Although only packing a single 1x12, the cab has been voiced so it sounds huge and allows the full range of tones to come flooding out. At its heart lies a Celestion G12M-65 Creamback 16 Ohm speaker. Brian Wampler meticulously went through dozens of different speakers from several different manufacturers trying to find The Perfect Speaker that would complement the organic qualities that the Bravado provides for the pedal-loving player. Every speaker you could imagine was installed, tested, tested again, compared to the others and then tested again. The Celestion Creamback speakers give the response,clarity, high head room and do not break up as fast as others. They bring a full low end depth which complements the warm and vocal mid range, expressive upper mids and sweet, refined, clear and distinct highs. As with all Wampler cabinets, over-sized 12-gauge speaker wire is soldered between the speaker and terminal, assuring you capture every ounce of valuable tone. The Bravado 1x12ext is handcrafted with pride in the USA and designed to withstand the rigors of the road, and sounds infinitely bigger than you will expect it too.
