Tex Bernie Tremolo, Black

The Tex Bernie Custom is Tony's tweaked recipe of one of the original Bernie Raunig projector amp conversions owned by session guitarist extraordinaire Colin Cripps. All of the gearhead superlatives apply here- amazing dynamic response and feel, with a surprising amount of low end and low mids for a low wattage EL84 powered amp.

The Bernie Tremolo model - a first for us - keeps the Bernie Custom foundation the same, but incorporates beautiful bias modulating trem into the mix. To keep the topography within the minimalist stylings of the amp, the Master Volume control is mounted on the underside of the chassis as well. Tony also had amazing vintage spec footswitches made, one of which is included with the amp. These are made to the same specs of the vintage Marshall tremolo footswitches often found with late 60s Marshalls - cast aluminum with a nice hammertone finish. It's the little things! Simple but effective Volume and Tone controls are very interactive, and can take you from sweet low volume chimey cleans to authoritative and harmonically rich tube overdrive. The addition of a Master Volume gives you even greater control, which works great for taking the amp from your living room to the stage or studio.

Rare NOS components that made vintage amps so sonically revered are carefully selected and implemented in each amp Tony makes, and that includes tubes! You're not apt to find many another amp builders out there who build amps stock with vintage tubes. Tony is all about delivering the best possible version of his circuits to the player, every time.

This one's dressed up in a beautiful Black Rexine wrap with the older BBC style logo that harkens back to Tony's earlier builds. Super handsome and classy inside and out!
