Single channel amp of touch sensitive old school tones.

51RT is the more British inspired amp in our lineup with the EL34 power amp section but it can also get to the more American tones thanks to the versatile EQ. This amp can give you also a larger range of overdriven tones compared to the 21RT. With the voicing switch you can go from the more classic lower gain tones in the down position to a more modern higher gain tones in the upper position. 

The switch increases gain but also effects frequency response. The lower position will have less low-mids and more treble and the higher position has more low mids and a little less treble. It also has the Presence knob to further tailor the brightness of your sound.

The amp was designed to give you a great overdriven tones that clean up beautifully with your guitar volume and playing dynamics. It also can give you the perfect clean tone to build your setup on as the amp is also designed to blend seamlessly with your pedalboard and takes pedals extremely well.

The amp has built in Reverb and Tremolo for the final old school touch and comes with a footswitch to control both. It also features built in series effects loop for instrument level effects.
