Prepare to be totally impressed by the Quidley 22's capabilities. There is a thickness and breadth to the sound of this amp that makes it truly unique. The amp is designed to provide harmonically rich, brilliantly clear tones when cleaned up and thick, grinding overdrive when leaned on and everything in between.
The timbre and versatility of this amp will quite simply BLOW YOU AWAY!
The Quidley Guitar Amplifier is a hand made, point-to-point wired, all tube
amplifier capable of 22 watts of output power.
It consists of a single channel preamp with selectable gain changes at three locations within the circuit and has the ability to operate in open-loop (Matchless© and Vox© style) or in negative feedback (Marshall© and Fender© style) modes.
Two of the three gain changes are selectable with the included footswitch or front panel switch and the third is selectable via the high/low gain input jacks.
The preamp is coupled to a push-pull dual EL84 driven power section. The 22 watt output is designed to provide a perfect stage level mix at the full master setting for most live performance environments and a Pentode/Triode switch allows the amp output power to be reduced to approximately 8 watts in case lower output is desired.
Many guitarists are using the lower power selection in live performances in small to medium venues and it's perfect for the living room. |
