PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: This listing is for a Tonkraf The Phoenix Tube Amplifier 

"The Phoenix is a re-imagination of the “Tone Valve” circuit created by Tim Thompson in 2009. Taking cues from Ken Fischer, Doug Hoffman, and the famous Marshall 18-watt, Tim carefully chose his favorite off the shelf parts, added an active effects loop and solid-state rectifier to create this fire-breathing monster.Enter the Phoenix.

In 2009, this amplifier started as a paralleled 12AX7 preamp with only simple tone and volume controls. Over the years to date, this circuit has evolved to boast an incredible Master Volume control that preserves responsiveness and overdrive from very low volume levels to full loudness. The parallel preamp was changed to use the tone stack between the dual triode gain stages, and an effects loop inserted just before the phase inverter. Lastly, to “speed” things up a bit, a solid-state rectifier was incorporated. We find this circuit is not only suited for most all genres of guitar playing, but also very capable of acoustic-electric; lap steel; harmonica (harp to you blues guys); and violin.

This slow-roasted recipe of years of evolution has yielded a tonal palette of guitar bliss. Thus, from the ashes, the Phoenix rises. We know you will enjoy this little tone machine. Plug in, crank it up, enjoy!"
