RedPlate CDS2 guitar amps

The CDS2 is a pedal friendly platform that gives the player the ability to switch between the clean tones of a blackface-style preamp or the break up of a 50’s tweed preamp. The overdrive section can be set for anything from British crunch to endless sustain and an all-tube fully buffered effects loop is included. Like all RedPlate Models, the CDS2 is handmade in the USA.
