Epiphone Valve Junior 5W Combo
Epiphone Valve Junior 5W Combo
If you are looking to re-create that Derek and the Dominoes/early Clapton
solo sound, grab your Strat and plug into an Epiphone Valve Junior guitar
amplifier. This little thing sounds awesome. Sounds louder than the 5
watts the Valve Junior is rated for.
One knob on the Epiphone Valve Junior
guitar amp delivers Class A valve output
through
a single-ended circuit that responds
to your play the
way a compact amp is supposed to. Class A valve amplification delivers
constant power from the valve, the valve is always full on regarless
of how loud the volume is. This creates a more responsive tone regardless
of where you have set the volume pot. Keep the Valve Junior volume
at about 3 and you’ll get punchy, clear tone that makes the strings of your
guitar feel like they know what you’re going to play before you even
hit them. The Epiphone Valve Junior response is quick and lively. Turn
the Valve Junior up to 10 and you get a classic crunch that’s gusty
without over saturating the harmonics.
The Epiphone Valve Junior guitar amp
is perfect for recording, live, mic’d use and for practice when space is limited but sacrificing tone
isn’t an option. The Valve Junior is vintage tone and crunch in an
impressively affordable package.
Why does a 5 watt valve amplifier often
sound louder than a 15 watt transistor
amp? Single ended vlave amplifiers sound
full, providing rich, luscious
overall tonal coloration with with harmonic overtones and enough clarity
to bring out the nuances of your guitar and playing. Part of what we
call volume is how much of the tonal spectrum is making it through
to the ear. Fuller delivery of the harmonics
being produced deliver more
meaningful volume. At lower wattages, they’re coveted for a natural
break up when turned to higher volumes, resulting in a creamy distortion
that
makes modern gain sound sterile and flat.
High quality metalwork, detachable power cable, rugged, musical speaker
and a lot of attention to detail make the Epiphone Valve Junior an uncompromised
and serious piece of gear. A 5 year warranty backs up Epiphone's commitment.
