UK'67
Two incredible California sound amps are available!
I worked hard at bringing in the character and control of the UK'68 into a 2 - EL34 version ! Just like it's big brother, this Master Volume control leaves you lacking NOTHING. What is true for the UK'68 holds for this version too. Play it at ANY volume without reservation. The UK'67 captures our '68 Brownout without cranking!
With 3 way Gain control and 3 way Bright switch you can go from early Plexi character to scorching distortion. The Body control brings in a fullness that doesn't get in the way of the Bass control. Standard bypassable clear FX Loop comes standard with a return Level adjustment knob.

** SPECIAL NOTES ON UK'67 & UK'68 **
Design engineering: No output stage of a push pull tube guitar amp is perfectly balanced. To capture the character of the way the '68 Brownout distorts and overdrives mainly the output stage, into a preamp section, means to NOT balance it, or have too many gain stages. Nor to flat clip with diodes, etc.. Working with 4 x EL34's or 2x EL34's is a different game. They react differently partly because it is the same driver stage pushing them. So to make the 2 x EL34's react the same to me becomes a challenge. Because, not only are we going after the cranked tone at low volume, but we want it as close as possible when the amp is cranked up loud too! I especially do not like PPIV Masters - of any type for an amp like this, no matter what the claims are. Partly for the reason - you can't use an FX Loop without disastrous results. Having a loop in the middle of the whole distortion characteristics doesn't and can't work. So, CAN you do it with a pre-phase inverter Master?! I think the answer when you hear the clips is YES ! The preamp circuit in these particular amps is a bit different than my Perplex'd series - even though NONE of my preamps (except the Sirrom) are totally balanced. (hence why I'm known for having a great Master Volume). The difference between the UK'67 and UK'68 models in character are; the UK'67 has more chewiness and 'slight' more compression along with possibly a little more sweetness. The UK'68 bites a bit more and has a bit more 'open-ness' to it. Possibly more 'grit'.
Either choice - I believe I have incredible sounding models with a proprietary FX Loop designed by myself, that no one has disputed it is truly as transparent as is possible, not hindering the amp at low OR higher volumes.

UK'68
This is it !! The California sound you've been wanting ! A Master Volume control that leaves you lacking NOTHING ! Play it at ANY volume without reservation. The UK'68 captures our '68 Brownout without cranking and with an extra crunch. With 3 way Gain control and 3 way Bright switch you can go from early Plexi character to scorching distortion. The Texture switch in Vintage mode gives a chewiness that only a Browned out amp can do, while the Bold side brings in a '1984' mid character. The Body control brings in a fullness that doesn't get in the way of the Bass control. Standard bypassable clear FX Loop comes standard with a return Level adjustment knob. New is a Brown switch on the back working some more softening magic if desired.

UK'78
This amp came about because of the great sound of the Canadian JCM800 model. It had a sweeter midrange with the 4/8 ohm output transformer. I worked hard to capture that flavour. The only additions are a DEPTH control, a 3 Position Bright Switch, and a Texture switch that adjusts the driver and preamp voltage. Being that the 1978 JMP had lower voltage, (as does mine), in order to capture the 800 character the preamp voltage needed to be raised, which is the Bold setting. Add to all this my exclusive FX Loop and you are ready to rock with one of the most iconic machines ever designed! Completely hand wired (unlike originals) adds more 3D quality.

'68 Brownout
The idea for this amp came from cloning a 1968 Plexi I owned, then using a Variac turned it down until the sound I wanted was achieved. All the voltages were measured and a power transformer with those voltages was installed. The result is plugging the amp straight into the 120VAC wall socket gives what a Variac turned down would. Eliminating the need for the Variac. In addition a 3 way Bright Switch was installed on the Loudness 1 control. Center position is off (no bright cap) - Left is my normal bright cap on all amps - Right is the original value that was on the '68 (.0047uf). Turning this amp up to 8, so the bright cap still has an effect on sound, gives it the famous aggression these amps are known for. With the custom Mercury Magnetics output transformer it works exceptionally well with 'reactive load attenuators' - with or without re-amp power built in. Because of this there is NO MASTER volume of any type in the amp.

MM 27
The design of this amp is unique with the incorporation of an EF86 tube to replace the 12AX7 1st stage in a "top boost" circuit. This allows for not only more gain but a richer tone. There is no need to be concerned about microphonics since the EF86 circuit has been setup for less gain thereby reducing the microphonics without affecting the richness of it!
*Four switches give an unprecedented amount of control.*
First is an INPUT SENSITIVITY switch controlling the amount of signal gain in the 1st stage - as opposed to two inputs, having the one load down the guitar signal, thereby changing the tonality.
Second is a FAT switch. Since the original top boost channel had a very small coupling cap reducing the lower frequencies - we have the same setup - but for those who desire more full range coupling and 'full frequency distortion' - it is available.
Third is a MID BOOST switch bringing in some 'awhhh' tonality plus gain with it! Allowing you to get from sparkly clean to full saturation with tight bottom end.
Fourth is a TREBLE SHIFT switch, changing the treble cap to allow more mid frequencies to be added to the treble control range - which, depending on the guitar and pickups sometimes produces more bite and forwardness and other times seems just a fatter treble response.
Being that there is no negative feedback in the design, the Presence control is like a 'hi-cut' when turned back - allowing full top frequencies when up.
The MAC control gives a lot of control over the room level - being extremely transparent - and allowing you to have a lot of overdrive, if desired, at any level you want. This allows you to get the 'preamp' section into 'the sweet spot' as they say while managing the overall volume to speakers.

KAGE
NOT your average low wattage amp !! Don't let the 2 / 8 watts deter you from thinking this can't be a Club amp! On the contrary, it can do home practice volume exceptionally well! The design originally came about to be a great sounding at home practice amp but with a full 'big' amp sound. After a few months of tweaking and designing for two separate Hi-Voltage rails it has turned into a great Club amp. Not going with the 'usual' push pull output stage, it is single ended EL84 Class A for the plentiful 2nd order harmonics that come with it. With oversize Transformers and a Choke coupled pi input filter it not only produces great dynamics but without any power supply hum. Add to that the Attenuator for speaker volume and those same dynamics are available at 'any' volume.
The end result produced an amp perfect for fly - in gigs, Club gigs, back up protection, recording, practice, etc.........

MO-JO
The original Mo-Jo was a single channel, clear, simple hand wired amp that was designed specifically for Joe Perry of Aerosmith. It is loud and was pushing a Marshall(tm) 8×10 cab on its first tour and then 4×12 cabs for the second leg and 3 world tours. So it is at home with 10s or 12s and is specifically geared towards Greenbacks.
Model is true point to point wired.
The MAC (Master Attenuation Circuit) was put in to tame the volume this amp can achieve, allowing you to get the same richness at much more controllable levels. Unlike using an outboard attenuator the MAC does not introduce any grit or un-natural colouration to the original sound. This amp can be a great pedal format, taking overdrives and fuzzes equally well, or can be set up highly overdriven itself and cleaned up exceptionally well with your guitar volume.

VTR 10
Described as having an M type bottom but V mids and top end along with a luscious compression that doesn’t hide the articulateness of your attack but adds bloom.
The VTR has a new feature of 'FULL 15 WATT setting'! Due to the unique power supply you can now choose between a Choke pi Filter or a resistor pi Filter. This controls the voltage applied to the overall amp and adjusts the power out. Originally as a 10 watt amp it now can produce 15 watts RMS for more headroom. And the output stage still runs in it's same design - keeping the tone and character the same! The Half Power switch has been re-designed in a very unique way, producing half output of whichever the WATTS switch is set at. Example ; 15 WATT setting with Half Power equals 7.5 watts out. Obviously then 10 WATT setting with Half Power equals 5 watts out.
Add to all this a two setting GAIN Switch plus a FAT switch makes this one of the most versatile single channel amps made !!
For the guitarist that just wants to ROCK out - putting a 12AX7 tube in the driver/phase inverter stage puts this amp 'over the top'!
Model is true point to point wired.
Tailored for a sweet fat tone that works exceptionally well with single coil guitars as well.

British Jr.+ Head (& Combo)
This new model replaces the Perplex'd Jr. 15 AND the '69/70 Jr. series. Still Class A single ended EL34 package of 15 watts. The wider range of the Gain switch really gets you from old-school M style to hot-rodded. The controls run 'in line' right across the full length because of a new custom chassis.
The Clean channel, VTB, is designed after another British style amp that is cathode biased, and in this latest version is more organic, sounding rich when cranked into slight distortion range since the design is to keep as much clean headroom as possible.
Model is true point to point wired.
The Master is designed to be ‘extremely’ smooth, coming on slow and linear all the way.
Don’t let the 15 watts fool you – this amp through a 4×12 kicks! Cleans are exceptional with your guitar volume rollback on the Lead channel too ! The combo version is essentially the same as the head. It comes with either a Celestion Greenback or a Vintage 30 if more volume is needed. The cab is open back, filling the room and cutting through a mix exceptionally well.

The XSIII is an 85 watt beast. What makes it unique, besides the exclusive Mercury Magnetics output transformer, is the TWO Gain controls on the Hi-Gain Channel. One is set up for Bright Crunch and the other for Fat Drive, allowing you to tailor the tightness and fullness, giving it wide flexibility. This amp can be smooth or aggressive! The Clean/Grind channel can do just what it says - making a full bore cranked stack character or a sweet clean - your choice.
Described this way - ''it's got some sponge ... not stiff or strident ... but at the same time super tight on the bottom end ... super open .. but compresses perfectly at the same time ... it is aggressive but also warm and sweet in the overdrive''.

XS III "CLASSIC"
This version brings our top amp back into the ultimate Classic tones. Not actually a clone of any amp out there, it does blend together Hiwatt(Tm), Marshall(Tm), and Fender(Tm) Tones and Characteristics. This ‘Classic’ version sports 2 channels, almost identical, except for different types of components on each. The Clean/Grind ch. having a Gain Sw. to allow you to play completely clean with it. When you cranked up an old non-master amp the Tone Controls didn’t have near as much range as a higher gained designed master volume amplifier. We’ve kept that, plus the flavour of the cranked distortion with a Different preamp than any of our other amps and a Master Volume on each channel to tame it for small clubs and home use. The beauty of this whole design is the lack of ‘fizzies’ usually associated with a lot of other amps. With the Presence control design we use you can tame an over lively room or bring the amps character ‘in your face’ when needed. An exclusive (designed in house) HiVoltage Fet Loop (w/bypass Sw) keeps the purity of the amp intact and supplies a strong buffered connection for your ‘time based’ units. The return has a variable Level control that gives just enough control to balance a problematic chain.

The uniqueness of this amp is the way the distortion character (amount of) stays the same no matter what level you play at. It does not 'clear' up as you get louder, nor does it get 'more' as you lower the gain. But it still cleans up with your guitar volume control fairly well. The Master is a separate entity of it's own.
Adding versatility is a Drive control that works in conjunction with the Gain control on the Distortion channel ! This helps flavour the character of the distortion.
To top all that off a Filter Switch affecting the lower mids for palm muting and chugging has been installed.
The Clean/Crunch channel sports a Dual Gain switch plus a 3 way bright switch, along with full Gain / Master / Treble / Mids / Bass.
The Presence has a 3 way switch to choose from NO Presence to stock British to more like a negative feedback control.

GRINDER
This final version of the GRINDER has 2 independent Channels with 3 way Bright Switches.
Both the Clean and Grind channels are inspired by the famous Blackface era, with the distortion channel sporting 4 gain stages. Don't be fooled though - it still cleans up just as well as all Morris gain designs with your guitar volume.
The cleans are just as pretty as any 60's North American amp, with the rectifier tube giving just the right amount of cushion.
