11. TWEED 1X12
The TWEED 1x12, 18 Watt, all-tube combo is the very essence of simplicity with a Volume knob and a single Tone control. This Tone control is
merely a treble cut and boost, and its behavior can be mimicked by using the JamVOX’s TREBLE, MIDDLE and BASS EQ network as follows:
Original Tone control turned all the way down (off) = BASS on full; TREBLE and MIDDLE at 9 o’clock (PRESENCE “off”).
Original Tone control turned up “full” (on 10) = TREBLE on full; MIDDLE and BASS at 9 o’clock (PRESENCE “off”).
Original’s tube compliment:
1 x 12AY7, 1 x 12AX7 in the preamp, 1 x 5Y3GT rectifier, 2 x 6V6s in the power amp.
NOTE:
As the original doesn’t have a Presence control, PRESENCE is “neutral” when “off,” but can be used to add “extra” sparkle and cut to the
style if you so wish.
12. TWEED 4X10
TWEED 4x10 is very sensitive and responsive to both picking strength and the volume setting on your guitar. This means that by backing-off your
axe’s volume when the amp is cranked, you can produce a beautifully clean and full tone. It also means that dynamic picking control allows you to
make notes or chords more distorted or clean than others, depending on how hard or how soft you pick. Another cool tonal quirk of TWEED 4x10
is the classic, vintage tube amp sag its GZ34 rectifier tube adds to your notes whenever the amp is driven really hard.
Original’s tube compliment:
1 x 12AY7, 2 x 12AX7s in the preamp, 1x GZ34 rectifier, 2 x 5881s in the power amp.
13. BOUTIQUE CL
For this amp, we styled the Clean channel of another very expensive, handwired, custom amp made by the same boutique builder as BOUTIQUE OD.
Its beautifully rounded low-end, delightfully transient midrange attack and sweet treble make it the perfect partner for single-coil pickups. It is
also incredibly responsive and extremely sensitive to picking styles and pickup selection. And, as an added bonus, strummed chords just ring out
and blossom.
Original’s tube compliment:
3 x 12AX7s in the preamp, 4 x 6L6s in the power amp.
14. BOUTIQUE OD
For this one we styled the Overdrive channel of a very rare and expensive 100 Watt head named the Overdrive Special. This hand-wired beauty has
a spectacular overdriven sound that’s perfect for sax-like, legato soloing. With its GAIN control wide-open, BOUTIQUE OD produces a stun-
ning sustain which is very smooth and very soulful.
Original’s tube compliment:
3 x 12AX7s in the preamp, 4 x EL34s in the power amp.
