OVERVIEW
SIGNATURE CLASSIC REVERB AMP
Responding to requests for a single-channel, straight-ahead clean amp, we have produced the Custom 8-BALL. Employing just the ‘Single’ mode circuit from our flag-ship DUALIST Custom amp, we have produced a beautifully voiced singing Reverb amp which is in the best tradition of where guitar tube amps started. Again utilising touch sensitive and dynamic Cathode Biased output stages the Custom 8-Ball mirrors the tonality and response of the DUALIST Custom, just without the overdrive stage and FX loop since it doesn’t need one. Great for players who want a clean musical touch-sensitive amp without the preamp overdrive stage. A really good pedal platform.

FINISH
Finished cabinets and combos are priced without speakers, since our customers request a variety of speaker options and configurations which can vary considerably in cost.
We can advise you on speaker options, but if you know what you like we can buy them in for you at cost, or you can send them directly to us from your chosen supplier or we can fit speakers you already have available.
Nothing is too much trouble, just ask.

THE LINEUP
DUALIST CUSTOM
The concept behind the DUALIST Custom was to provide something just a little bit different whilst embracing the best of a great tradition of classic guitar amplification.
DUALIST XL
To facilitate the more extreme Heavy Metal and Hard Rock players we have taken our classic DUALIST Custom dual-gain preamp circuit and re-worked it into a hardwired none-switching single-channel version destined to melt your face!
8-BALL CUSTOM
The '8-Ball Custom Reverb' is a straight ahead reverb amp based on the 'Single' mode of our classic DUALIST circuit. Essentially pitched as a straight ahead 'clean' amp for those players who do not require the overdrive from the preamp.
BASS 100
A pure all-valve circuit with some suitable component tweaks for bass EQ in the preamp, and typically employing an output stage utilising either pairs of KT88, 6550 or quad 6L6.
