ACCURACY FIRST, EMBELLISHMENT WHEN DESIRED

Our goal with the Rosette Series was clear from the start and our commitment to excellence has guided us to what we feel is the 
FIRST ACCURATE Acoustic Instrument Combo Amplifier and DI Preamp/Pedal. 

In Rosette, we opted for architecture straight from high-end recording console designs. We developed Input stages that were not 
the typical, compromised dual-purpose circuits fed by universal  XLR+1/4” combo jacks found on many acoustic amplifiers in the 
marketplace. Instead, we chose dedicated, time-tested designs, proven over decades of great recordings, to deliver the uncompro-
mised, accurate truth.

In the MIC Input of Channel 1, a rugged, professional XLR jack uses a dual discrete transistor pair for the trans-conductance Input 
stage. Because microphones are low impedance transducers, the noise current specification must be at the top of the design list for 
the best noise performance and Tone.

Channels 1 and 2 feature duplicate ¼” mono PICKUP Inputs with input stage circuitry optimized for the impedance requirements of 
today’s (and yesterday’s) popular acoustic guitar pickups. A current source biased FET input stage was selected for this application 
as high impedance transducers require the noise voltage specification be the first consideration for optimal performance and Tone.

This purpose-built, no-compromise approach to the connection of your instrument pickup to the Input stage of the amp clearly states 
our mission with the Rosette Series. While it may look different from the crowded field of less sophisticated offerings in the marketplace, 
it is by far the proper and professional way to get the absolute best from the all-important instrument/pickup/amp input connection. 
Tone begins, and can end, at the Input Stage. We’re not about to let the latter happen on our watch. 

Note that the lower Channel (2) may be used with a Microphone by using a standard Line Matching Transformer available at most 
Music Stores for a nominal charge. While Input circuitry is not quite as optimized as it is in Channel 1 for this application, it is still 
superior to the IC based Input Stages found in many other brand’s acoustic offerings.  And the EQ Section being what it is in terms 
of quality and comprehensive control means that Channel 2 delivers an excellent result in times when you need this added flexibility 
regarding Inputs.
