The Class5 is a 5Watt, all-valve, class A amplifier in 1 x 10" combo format. This small combo amplifier is in response to a very common request we have received over the years which nearly always contains the phrase - “can we have the Marshall stack sound, but at a much lower volume please”, so here it is, a ‘baby Plexi’ if you like! Incorporating a very simple layout of Volume, Treble, Middle and Bass, it is designed to deliver those great cranked tones with minimum fuss and environmental abuse, a must for recording and ideal for rehearsals and small gigs. A headphone output is also included for private practice. Two ECC83 (12AX7) double triode preamp valves and a single EL84 pentode power amp valve ensure that the signal path is pure class A valve tone from beginning to end. Class A topologies are known for their generous second harmonic distortion characteristic, which is very pleasant to the ear and results in some classic overdrive tonality. Cranking the amp up to its full ‘deceivingly respectable’ output will yield some red hot Marshall roar, which can alternatively be driven into a 16Ω 4 x 12" for some of that extra bottom-end resonance familiar to nearly all Marshall devotees! The internal 10" speaker is the newly developed Celestion G10F-15 which is the perfect partner for this amplifier and maximises the tonal spectrum admirably considering the compact size of this little brute!
