Malin-Sweet-Loraine-Head.58

The Sweet Loraine

The Sweet Loraine is my tribute to a legendary American West Coast amp builder and that signature tone you can only get from his amplifiers!  Sweet Loraine is a Class AB amp which features a foot switchable all-tube overdrive circuit and “boost”.  An incredibly versatile amplifier, the Sweet Loraine is fully configurable.  Looking for that creamy Santana infinite sustain?  Loraine can do it.  Looking for Carlton Jazz/Rock fusion?  Ford Rock/Blues?  Sweet Loraine can deliver that, too!  (Please check out the Audio Clips page for a couple demos.)

  • Head/Cabinet or Combo formats
  • Class AB push-pull power amp
  • Effects Loop
  • Adjustable output impedance
  • Master volume (for those late night inspiration sessions!)
  • Foot switch included
  • Tone f-o-r-e-v-e-r!

The Bad Dog

bad_dog-001

This is one little combo who’s bark is every bit as big as his bite!  The Bad Dog is a single channel all tube amp, from the rectifier to the class AB push-pull power tubes.  Features reverb, a master volume for those late night sessions, bright switch and a switchable all-tube overdrive stage.  Looking for SRV Texas blues?  This amp will nail it!  Everything from warm jazz to blues to Allman Brothers style sustain.  This is one killer amp!  With a Les Paul this thing will absolutely sing!  With a Strat, it honks like the best of them.  Speakers are a pair of 10″ Celestion Greenbacks because two ten’s push a lot more air than one twelve!  And did I mention the KT-66 power tubes?  The heart of the tone is in the matched pair of KT-66’s.  They provide that much more low end growl than your typical 6L6’s.  (Note: The Bad Dog is 50 Watts, but  is available in a lower power, 20 watt version as well)

  • Available in 50 Watts (KT-66’s)
  • Combo format
  • Class AB push-pull power amp
  • Full tube analog spring-type Reverb
  • Adjustable output impedance
  • Master volume (for those late night inspiration sessions!)
  • 2 10″ Celestion Greenbacks
