40 Watt Blues Special

$3,799.00

When the creation of this amp started, there was one simple goal; make an amp with thick lows and clear singing highs, along with mids ranging from punchy, to scooped. This amp excels at all those tasks, as well as offering dual-voicing on the 2nd channel, as well as tube-driven spring reverb and vibrato.

That amp sounded so good that only one logical solution remained; add preamp boost and dual-voicing to create the Avalon of tone. Select between Jazz, or Rock voicing on the 40 Watt Blues Special’s Vibrato channel as well as engaging the preamp boost by pulling out on the Vibrato channel’s “Treble” knob.

Innovation and Adaptation; Not only relevant on stage, but throughout life.

With thick lows and mids on-tap from tweed to black panel scoop, singing highs with sustain for days, the 40 Watt Blues Special from 11 Series Amps will meet your artistic needs from the home to a club sized venue and stand out at any genre along the way.

Have confidence knowing that heavenly tone is just a few control panel adjustments away at any time. The Eminence 1518 speaker gives this amp a uniqely present voice with rich lows that are never boomy, as well as clear highs that are sure to stand out at home, or in the mix.
