Product Description

Apollo T80

Modified from an earlier low powered design, the Apollo T80 achieves higher power by utilizing a long-tailed pair phase inverter circuit, with four 5881 power valves. 80 watts of output is driven into two Jensen P12N 12” AlNiCo speakers.
          
This translates to an amp born of that distinct raw-yet-creamy overdrive which defines the classic textured California sound, yet has more openness and slightly less output stage compression than the Low powered version - meaning a more immediate and fast attack off the player’s picking hand.
          
Combine this with the signature forward punch of a pair of 12” AlNiCo’s, low end is tight and full, with crunchy midrange and sparkling brilliance in the high end. Housed inside an open-back select pine lacquered tweed cabinet, this amp just fills the room with stunningly rich and full tone that responds intimately with every inflection and nuance of the player's style.
         
This is THE amp to go for if you’re searching for a multidimensional clean platform for pedals, which can also dish out buckets of fantastically dirty rhythm and grind – just ask Keith Richards!
