What we say:

The EVH 5150 Iconic 15W 1x10 Combo is not only iconic in name! It brings that fabled EVH high gain tone into a more affordable price point and somehow manages to pack in some extra features too. This next chapter in the 5150 amplifier series will be a huge asset to guitarists playing across a number of genres. Although it nails the high gain sounds, this is amp is no one trick pony and has a lot more to offer!

Features We Love:

2 Channels of Excellent Tone!

Let's not kid ourselves, most guitarists will be attracted to this amp for its excellent high gain channel that produces that classic EVH sound that we all know and love. Something to keep in mind though is that it also has an excellent clean channel with a lot of character. The Overdrive switch gives the Clean channel some added grit when needed while the Burn switch takes the Lead channel into crazy crunch territory!

Tube Tone

The key to this amp's awesome tone is the 6l6 powertube that feeds into a multi-stage hybrid preamp that features a pair of ECC83 tubes, the result definitely gets that iconic EVH tone, but can also be pushed into the extreme or backed off for stunning cleans, all with clarity, definition and minimal noise.

Professional Features

The amp is definitely not short on useful features for the serious guitarist, including an emulated cab output, that works with headphones, or can be patched straight to your studio or PA set up, for all-tube EVH tones without the need for microphones. The amp also features an effects loop, a variable wattage switch that's useful for home practice, and a stunning global reverb.
