PRS Guitar Amp Heads

Paul Reed Smith guitars is very well known for their exotic beautiful and exquisite instruments. They have a great feel and a great tone that is very versatile from music to music. They're not quite as known for their amplifiers as much is a guitars but they do make some good medium gain to clean style amplifiers. These amps have two channels that features two 6L6 power tubes. Another great feature is it features Haeyboer out put Transformers. These are great boutique transformers that really make the sound prominent and thickening. UTILIZATION Features 50W Two channels 2 - 6L6 power tubes Heyboer output transformer Global reverb Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass controls and Bright switch for each channel Lead channel Master Volume Clean channel Master volume 4, 8, and 16 ohm selection 2 output jacks Fixed bias Effects loop (send/receive level controls on back panel) Includes footswitch for channel selection and reverb on/off SOUNDS The tone of this amplifier is very good. It's not quite a high gain amplifier but can get you a complete tone which accepts effects pedals very well. There's not a whole lot of controls and switches and different bells and whistles on this amplifier , but it has just enough for you to get a great solid tone night after night of gigging or even in the recording studio. They basically have two channels one for the clean and one for the lead master gain channel. You have your standard EQ settings but you also have a bright switch for each channel and a global reverb for both channels. This is very simple design but a great sound for a basic sound. OVERALL OPINION You can find these amplifiers for right around $1500 which is a good price for Paul Reed Smith amplifier. It's a little unusual look cosmetically but it's a great sound great feel. If you're into the country rockin blues pop sound and this is a good amplifier for you.

Same amp as the combo version but just in a head version. You get the same great features as the combo but you'll have to get a cab to go along with it. And at PRS prices I would pass with flying colors. I have never been a fan of the PRS guitars and so I was a little hesitant to hear one of their amps but to my surprise this amp sounded very good. It has a extremely transparent clean tone that is one of the best cleans I have ever heard. Then you take it up the volume and you get a pretty good moderately distorted tube driven tone. This amp is not high gain and is designed for the clean tones. Paul Reed Smith Original Sewell 100W Amp Head Tube Guitar Amplifier Features: All-tube amp head 100 watts 12AX7 preamp tubes, 6L6 power tubes Sweet high end, warm midrange, and tight low-end Onboard reverb UTILIZATION Details Type Tube Number of Channels 1 Power 100W No Effects Reverb EQ Treble, Middle, Bass No Amp Modeling Inputs 1 x Instrument Outputs 2 x TS SOUNDS This amp sounds pretty good and will sound best with a single coil guitar in my opinion. It is very chimy and sparkly type clean tone. Not really a Fender tone but a different character all together. It takes pedals real well and provides a nice warm shiny tone. OVERALL OPINION This amp is nice but extremely overpriced.I cannot understand for one second how PRS can think that this amp has anything more than a Fender amp of the same features. I have rated the overall opinion a little lower for one reason....PRS jacks their prices up way too far. This amp come in new at around $3100. For a single channel clean amp this is a bit ridiculous. This is basically the reason I have steered very clear of his guitars. They are very overpriced and this amp is the same way.
