PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- Authentic Plexi tone foundation At its core the 1959 Modified stays true to the legendary Super Lead circuit that defined the Plexi era. The amp delivers explosive dynamics rich harmonic content and the unmistakable bite that made the original famous. Clean tones respond beautifully to pick attack while pushed settings produce complex overdrive that remains articulate and expressive. This foundation preserves the character associated with classic British rock giving players the feel and response that made the original 1959 a cornerstone of guitar amplification. Master volume and gain boost flexibility A newly added master volume transforms how the Super Lead can be used in modern settings. Players can now access saturated crunch and natural valve overdrive without relying on extreme volume levels. The gain boost introduces two overdrive modes allowing you to switch between classic breakup and more aggressive drive tones. This added flexibility expands the amp&rsquo
- s range while maintaining its core voice making it far easier to dial in inspiring tones across different environments. Switchable bright cap control The switchable bright cap offers additional control over the high-frequency response allowing you to tailor the amp&rsquo
- s top end to suit different guitars pickups and playing styles.
