Rocktron has launched the ValveSonic Plexi, the first in the ValveSonic series of all-tube guitar preamps.
Developed in conjunction with LA Custom, this preamp captures the vintage tones of the iconic British plexi amplifiers, from the early stacked amps of the 60’s, to the arena sound of rock in the 70’s, to the sound heard during the 80’s Sunset Strip era and beyond in one rack space.
Shipping now, the ValveSonic’s 1-2 switch allows players to quickly toggle between the ‘modern’ type of input used on British style amps, and a fatter, “classic” type of input. The Bright control allows five different variations, and the gain and boost controls allow players to replicate the 80s and 90s British amp tones. When combining the use of the unique Afterburner switch, the ValveSonic allows guitarists to fine tune an exact tone.
