Chandler Limited’s GAV19T Guitar Amplifier is a cathode-biased, class A, all-tube, 19-watt guitar amp designed in the vein of classic English amplifiers and a big, vintage sound. Chandler Limited will also offer guitarists a selection of loudspeaker enclosures optimized for use with the " GAV19T Guitar Amplifier.
The GAV19T incorporates its overdrive and tone circuitry directly within the power section. This design enables the GAV19T to be highly overdriven while still maintaining the amplifier’s classic tone. The drive portion of the GAV19T is a b oost / overdrive c ircuit t hat works only on the power section of the amplifier.
As a result, instead of adding preamp gain and distortion to achieve the overdrive effect, the GAV19T uses the power amp. The Drive has two controls – the amount of boost and the tone of the boost.Selections include Treble Boost, Full Range, Aggressive, Mids, or Bypass.
Tone can be selected as either Normal or Intense. The tone control section of the new GAV19T Guitar Amplifier has a Baxendall tone stack that uses an ECC803 tube. The GAV19T’s Bias control affects only the bias of the preamp tube – enabling the guitarist to gently tweak its overall tone independently of the power section. Retail price: $2,385.00.
