FEATURES;
•
2 CHANNELS OF ALL-TUBE TONE - Selectable by front panel or footswitch,
Channel One provides those classic warm yet sparkling clean tones and is a
perfect platform for pedal boards while Channel Two gives you a wide range of
smooth, sustaining overdrive lead tones.
•
OPTIONAL BUFFERED SERIAL EFFECTS LOOP – See the rear panel explanation
for more information. If effects are to be used on the lead channel at high gain
settings, the optional effects loop is recommended.
•
HAND-WIRED CONSTRUCTION – Also sometimes called “point-to-point” wiring,
the Para-Dyne amps utilize a very high quality turret board made of super-tough
G10 composite. This glass-epoxy laminate is specified for its extremely high
strength and high dimensional stability over temperature
. The extra-thick board
material will never warp or melt, and there are no copper traces to peal away
from the board over time. All wiring and soldering is done by hand and quality-
checked to ensure many years of trouble free operation.
•
AMERICAN-MADE TRANSFORMERS – We utilize only the best transformers to
meet our specifications. They are chosen for superior tone and are rated to
withstand extreme heat for high reliability. Output impedance is switchable to 4,
8 or 16 ohms and 2 speaker jacks are provided.
•
CUSTOM DESIGNED CHASSIS – Our durable welded steel chassis is designed
specifically for our amp models so that every part can be mounted in the optimal
location for lowest noise and highest stability.
•
CUSTOM DESIGNED CABINET – Our cabinets are specially designed for
maximum durability and superior tone. We use high-grade birch ply for our
cabinets. The cabinet components are precision cut using high-tech equipment
and are hand assembled with care. Dovetail or finger joints are used at the
corners for maximum strength.
•
SELECTABLE OUTPUT POWER LEVELS – A “triode/pentode” switch is provided
to allow the output power to be reduced about half the rated output for those
situations when you want a little less volume without sacrificing tone.
•
EXTERNAL BIAS TEST POINTS – The Para-Dyne amps are equipped with
external bias test points and an externally accessible adjustment control. This
makes output tube replacement fast and economical. In fact, with a low cost
multi-meter you can adjust bias yourself. This can be a real advantage in case of
a tube failure during a performance or recording session. See the section about
the rear panel for more information.
