Masters Announces The TVA30 30-Watt Guitar Amp.
The TVA30 delivers 30 watts with 4 EL84s through a 70% over-rated, custom-designed output transformer. The manufacturor says that the amplifier is a stable, non-reactive design which performs well clean or distorted at both low and high volume and It is capable of delivering thick, strong low-end power without choking or losing sound quality.
The TVA30 has two channels, Clean and Drive, the high gain channel. We’re told that when turned up, the Clean channel overdrives like an old English tube amp and, the Effects Level control can be set up as a Master Volume so you can achieve the overdrive sound on the Clean channel at low volume levels.
The Drive channel employs 4 stages ahead of the driver/splitter stages. It is is designed to be responsive to the volume control on your guitar and your dynamics, so you can play with just a little edge to your tone or play rhythm or lead with heavy distortion that remains tight, responsive and articulate.
