Our Dark Gene amplifier is the absolute best value in a completely hand wired, true point to point tube amplifier available today and comes in two tonal shades, RED or GREEN. We challenge you to find comparable quality like ours at this price point anywhere else in the USA. As a one man shop, each unit is meticulously hand wired one at a time to ensure our superior quality is met.
About the GREEN model:
This version of our Dark Gene amplifier utilizes classic JCM800 topology to deliver searing lead tones with the characteristically smooth texture of those legendary amps and its predecessors from decades prior. Our version is not just a copy and paste of the original preamp however, as some tasteful tweaks have been implemented to keep our customers more than satisfied with the versatility we offer. This option keeps the same controls but is centered more appropriately in the midrange. The SENSITIVITY control offers the user incredible dynamic response by bringing the mids forward or scooping them back drastically, as well as accommodating the effectiveness of the TREBLE and BASS controls. GAIN 1 is stronger than your typical gain control in its ability to control two stages simultaneously. Cleaner tones can by achieved by dialing this control back. The 3 position TOP/MID boost switch is defeated with GAIN 1 at maximum rotation. GAIN 2 serves as a master volume. NOTE: This model does not offer switchable clean/dirty operation via GAIN 2 control and comes with a green LED indicator.
