The
CL series amps were developed to deliver the magical bloom, chime,
and grind of the coveted British amps from the 60's in more abundance
and with higher quality than the currently available offerings
from "the big V". And, with the cosmetics and standard
color scheme of the CL-15, we lend credence to the great nostalgic
Watkins Dominator of the 50's. The CL-30's dark blue and cream
scheme just gush classic British!:
Switchable
EF86 or 12AX7 input tube.Want
to tame the beast a bit, flip it into 12AX7 mode, and who
are we fooling. Love the EF86's as much as we do, they are
known to have a bad hair day now and again. If the EF86 gets
testy with you during a gig, no problem, switch over to 12AX7
and finish out the show!

All
together the Chimey Limey amps deliver the ultimate in sweet chime
and bloom with the great nuance and touch you get from a minimal
circuit, but with plenty of "bullocks to the wall" grind
at higher volume settings thanks to the juicy Mercury Magnetics
trannys. All this in a package with exceptional versatility in
spite of it's low knob count.
