About this listing
The EVH 5150 Iconic Series EL34 80W Tube Amp Head satisfies
the needs of gigging and recording guitarists craving that powerful EVH tube
tone, but at a more affordable price. Evolving from the revered EVH 5150III
amplifiers, the Iconic Series delivers the searing sound and growling gain that
Eddie Van Halen made famous throughout his groundbreaking career. Designed by
renowned amp engineer, James Brown, the 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head is powered
by four EL34 power tubes and voiced by a complex, multi-stage hybrid preamp
section anchored by a duet of ECC83 tubes providing all the fire power the
modern guitarist needs in a simple to use format. This head features two
channels with an extra voicing on each for even more versatility. The Green
channel boasts an overdrive button to run from lush clean tones to increased
gain, while the Red channel's burn button adds fiery crunch that's ideal for
blistering leads. Each channel houses its own gain and volume controls,
allowing for level-matching the volume when switching between the clean and
high gain channels. The channel two noise gate's quick attack suppresses any
hiss while ensuring all staccato riffing is articulate and crisp, not choked
and choppy. The Boost control allows you to add another 10Db of foot-switchable
volume to your tone - perfect for ensuring your solos cut through the mix. The
control panel also includes shared EQ (Low, Mid and High), global resonance and
presence knobs to adjust the low- and high-end aspects of your tone, and a
global reverb control to add the perfect amount of bounce and decay for any
room. Other features include a two-button footswitch, effects loop, dual parallel
speaker output jacks, 1/4 power switch to reduce wattage - allowing you to
crank the amp and still preserve tone but without destroying your neighbor's
solitude, and a speaker-emulated DI XLR with power amp mute for accurate
all-tube EVH tone for recording direct or using through any PA system. Sporting
sophisticated and distinctive EVH style, the 5150 Iconic Series 80-watt head is
wrapped in Black textured vinyl with a brushed gold anodized aluminum front
panel and black steel grille featuring gold and black 5150 and EVH logo badges.
This head is finished off with vintage-style chicken-head knobs, red LED jewel
indicator and molded black plastic top handle.
