When playing through our Little Studio, you can notice a very responsive gain circuit that allows you to crank it up and control saturation with your guitar's volume control. Strat's are nice and chimey and LP's are bright and full of attack. With the circuit's simplicity, every nuance a player enjoys to use is alive and represented well in final amplification. The Tone circuit is unique in that it begins in a flat response state, then at 12 o'clock is at its brightest shape. As you continue to rotate it clockwise, the Tone circuit incorporates some "trickery" to scoop your mids and provide a nice warm brilliance that has to be heard to be appreciated.
Customers have the option of choosing their own speaker, tolex, cabinet hardware and grill cloth at no additional charge. Little Studio's start at $600.00 plus applicable tax and shipping and handling.
Additional features like Reverb and Headphone outputs can be added at additional cost. Click here to order today or get more information.
Sound Clips
How did we record these? Glad you asked. Using an Ernie Ball Music Man Axis guitar, with two Humbuckers, I played directly through the amp with absolutely no effects or gates or compressors of any sort- just a single instrument cable. This particular guitar has only a volume knob so what you get is what you get. I wanted to keep it as simple as possible to represent what the amp does, not the guitar. The "music" that I am playing is not intended to show you my mad guitar skills (HA, that would be the day), but instead is there to give you an idea of the tonal response and attack response of the amp. I often play the same lick three different times because I am switching between the three different pickups settings. You'll get the idea. We will try to include some clips of different kinds of guitars in the future with the same settings as below. Thanks for checking us out and I hope we can build you a great one soon!! - Tim, BCA
