Open Box EVH 5150 Iconic Series EL34 40W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amp Level 1 Black

The EVH 5150 Iconic Series EL34 40W 1x12 guitar combo amp delivers Eddie Van Halen's signature high-gain tone in a compact and portable all-tube combo. Powered by EL34 tubes and a 12" EVH Celestion speaker, this all-tube combo produces crisp cleans and blistering distortion ideal for any genre. The two-channel preamp features an overdrive voicing on the Green channel and a burn voicing on the Red channel, allowing a range of tones from pristine to searing. With independent gain and volume controls per channel, you can achieve your desired level of saturation and control the overall volume. The included footswitch lets you toggle between channels on the fly.

Iconic EVH Tone and Styling

Evolving from the revered 5150 III series, the 5150 Iconic Series delivers the same powerful and aggressive tone that Eddie Van Halen pioneered. The EL34 power section and 12" EVH Celestion speaker are voiced to capture the tight bass, present mids and articulate highs of Eddie's sound. An ECC83 preamp tube duet provides ample gain and warmth. The amp's black vinyl exterior and anodized aluminum front panel display the distinctive EVH logo, completing the signature vibe.

Versatile Tone-Shaping Controls

Shared EQ knobs for low, mid and high frequencies allow you to sculpt your tone with precision. Global presence and resonance controls further refine the high and low end. The reverb knob adds dimension and space. A boost control provides an additional 10dB of volume, perfect for pushing solos through the mix. The Red channel's noise gate quickly eliminates excess noise and hiss for a tight, focused distortion tone. With this array of tonal options, you can achieve any sound—from blues to metal and everything in between.

Features for Practice, Performance and Recording

A power switch lets you reduce the wattage to 10W for practice at lower volumes. Dual parallel speaker outputs allow you to run multiple cabinets. The amp also has an effects loop and balanced XLR line out with amp mute for direct recording or running into a PA. With its impressive feature set, the 5150 Iconic Series EL34 40W 1x12 guitar combo amp is ideal for practice, gigging and studio work.
