Marshall 1959 HW Vintage Reissue

At first glance, the Studiotone may seem like just another small amplifier...but it wouldn't be a KOCH amp if we hadn't equipped it with useful features and made it much bigger in terms of sound. A classic EL84-equipped Class A power amplifier, a completely newly developed loudspeaker and newly designed housing, three channels that can be called up via foot switch, as well as two effective voicing switches...all this is reminiscent of the best British amps of the 60s.The three channels (Clean, Overdrive and Overdrive+) offer everything from warm, round, clear sound to EL84-saturated, slightly compressive overdrive. The mid-shift processes the mids around 800 Hz, the three-stage bright switch offers the choice of attenuating, boosting or leaving the top end unaffected. The biggest surprises, however, can be found on the back: a serial effects loop, recording output with the option of varying the speaker type and microphone position, two further line outputs (one unfiltered, one low-level) and a headphone output! 4, 8 and 16 ohm speaker outputs complete the package, while the built-in load resistor ensures that you are always well equipped, even in the studio or when practising. Of course, the Studiotone also has an Accutronics reverb.
