The Quasar is an original design with a focus on simplicity for pure raw tone through dual 6V6 power tubes, and a Voltage Regulator for 1 - 20 watts of power.


Controls:

3-way voicing switch:STRANGE is the stock channel and gives you lower gain with smooth and sweet overdrive; TOP gives you a mid and top boost with a tight bottom; CHARM is a full frequency boost for blown out tweed sounds.

​

The Quasar features a Filter control to turn down high frequencies later in the circuit (which lets the harmonics build in the tubes first), and a Voltage Regulator - the best way to attenuate an amp! Saves your tubes and your neighbor's sanity!
