Yes, it djents.
Classic Hiwatt at its core, the Super-Hi 50 is a hot-rodded, extreme hi-gain firebreather designed by heavy-metal Mike Fortin. Clarity, punch, string definition, and tight low-end are at the focus of this amp's design, making it especially suited for drop tunings and extended-range instruments.

- Independent gain and master volume controls for both channels.
- Extreme high-gain tones that don’t fall apart. Push this beast to your heart’s content, maintaining constant clarity, articulation, and responsiveness, especially in low tunings.
