Martyr - 50 Watt - 2 Channel - Tube Amplifier 1x12 Combo - with FX Loop
Martyr -50
50watt with 6L6 power tubes, 12ax7 in preamp. Solid state rectifier.
-Two channel. Non foot switchable. Toggle on the front of amp. Clean with overdrive. -The clean channel can get a nice grit to it thanks to the gain adjustment. The gain channel has more than you’d use in an open back combo, but pair this with a closed back cabinet and you’ll be in a realm of heavy rock.
-Gain control is simply that. This adjusts the gain of the overall preamp.
-Saturation is an additional gain shaping control, but it controls the gain boost of a specific gain stage
-Drive is yet another gain shaping feature that doesn’t boost a stage, but it controls how hard a specific stage is being hit, which in turn affects how that stage clips. This is a great minor attenuator.
-Bright switch is simple, but does not introduce too much brightness. It has been attenuated this to be less harsh than standard Brights.
-Bass Mid Treble are all standard.
-Smooth Switch is a Blythe Engineering original filter. It isn’t so much the filter as it is the placement of the filter in the circuit. This rolls off ULTRA highs giving the tone a very smooth feel. This mainly affects the overdrive channel.
-LMV or “Linear Master Volume”. This master reacts unlike any you’ve seen. Instead of that huge jump in volume when you adjust the volume the slightest amount at low settings, you get a wide sweep which makes it great for lower/bedroom volumes.
-FX Loop - Always on Tube buffered FX loop with send and return levels.
-Misc - Ted Weber Legacy Alnico 12” speaker - Heyboer Transformers - This amp is 100% hand made. chassis, circuit board, enclosure, acrylic panels/faceplates made in house.
