Pulsar Reverb
SOLD OUT
Check with one of our dealers for availability
An all original design inspired by the Fender Princeton Reverb, Tweed Deluxe, and old Gibson amps. The Pulsar Reverb, with a 12 inch speaker and transformers to match, is bigger and more "vintage" sounding. The tone stack is a unique design that's more useful, versatile, and transparent sounding, so you can get everything from mid scooped Fender tones to mid forward Tweed sounds to faux-Marshall tones. Like all our amplifiers, the Pulsar also comes with a Voltage Regulator, so you can adjust it anywhere from 1/4 to 15 watts.
The Pulsar Reverb now features custom wound transformers by Bryan Sours of Soursound.
Features:
- 12 inch speaker and bigger transformer to match for a bigger and bolder sound
- A new tone stack that's more versatile and intuitive. Turn up the treble and bass for a mid scooped Fender tones; set them at noon for a flat EQ like a Tweed Deluxe; turn them down to get a mid forward tone for some faux-Marshall rock!
- Cathode biased for more expressive and richer tone
- 3-way preamp voicing switch: CHARM for classic tones; STRANGE tightens the low end; TOP is a bright channel with boosted highs
- A reverb that's tuned for a bigger, more plate-like sound
- Components feature Jupiter capacitors, solid core high purity copper wire with cotton insulation in the signal path for that full vintage tone, and premium US made carbon composition resistors - all wired point-to-point
- Custom wound transformers by Soursound
- Solid pine finger jointed cabinet - for increased resonance (organic woody tone) and durability
- Dimensions: 20 x 16 x 9.5 inches (W x H x D)
- Weight: about 28-31 lbs. depending on speaker
Speaker Options:
- STOCK - Amperian V.S.O.P. Alnico: An amazing speaker that just does everything exceptionally well. Amazing clarity in the upper mids, and high end detail that is both sparkly and warm.
- Amperian Revolution 65: Versatile and detailed, with great punch and clarity... for those that prefer the sound of ceramic.
Finish:
- Tolex: Two-tone Carbon Black with Fawn
