HUGHES & KETTNER SPIRIT NANO SERIES SPIRIT OF METAL

The Hughes & Kettner Spirit of Metal is a 25-watt nano amp that fits in your gig bag. Voiced for metal, this 2.5-pound guitar amplifier head delivers the chunk and grind you need to churn out meaty riffs and screaming leads. The Spirit of Metal sounds — and feels — remarkably tube-like, thanks to its bionic Spirit Tone Generator. And since it doesn’t employ digital modeling, you get true analog, no-latency performance. You also get a Sagging control, which dials in power amp saturation with tube-like compression. A headphones output with a Red Box cabinet emulator makes practicing fun, while an unfiltered line output makes using cab IRs a piece of cake. Beyond that, the H&K Spirit of Metal’s flexible speaker outputs accommodate most cabinets, including full-sized 412 cabs. Whether you use it for practice or as the ultimate micro-sized backup amp, every metal guitarist should have one of these!
