INTRODUCTION TO THE FUCHS AUDIO CASINO SERIES

™ 

AMPLIFIERS 

 
Having become Fuchs Audio Technology’s bestselling amplifiers, the Casino® Series brings 

the premium build quality and breathtaking tones people expect of Fuchs products into 

more affordable price range. The Casino® Series are based on a three 12AX7 preamp 

stage, and   each model has its own unique power stage. Unlike other amps in this price 

range, the Casino® Series features two channels, a digital reverb, gain boost, and a feature 

set  unlike  any  other boutique “D-style”  amp in this price  range. They feature a full 

complement of extremely flexible tone controls. A surprising amount of clean headroom 

is available before the output stage begins distorting with a sweet yet cutting rock edge. 

 

The Casino® Series boasts all the most sought-after Fuchs® amplifier features, including 

an aircraft grade aluminum chassis, our proven PC board and hand wired construction 

and  top-grade  transformers. On these models the preamp tubes and power supply  

circuitry are on the PC board, while the power tubes and transformers are mounted on 

the  chassis  for stability and performance.  A  detachable  power  cord  is  standard.  And 

through Fuchs® single point grounding, the amp is quiet and free of hum at all operating 

levels. 

 

A single instrument input and 3 speaker outputs for 4-8-16 ohms are provided. An effects 

patch jack is provided as is a dual footswitch jack for channel and gain boost via a dual LED 

footswitch. 

 

Features: 

 

¾” solid premium plywood cabinet with durable Tolex covering. 

 

Anodized aluminum chassis with long lasting silk-screened panel 

labeling  

 

Heavy duty Cliff brand jacks. Solid metal-shaft Alpha potentiometers.

switches.
