Tungsten Amps - Mosaic w/transformer upgradeMPN: Mosaic w/transformer upgrade Today was like Christmas morning for me...we received our first Tungsten Mosaic amp - plus ordered this with Tungsten's power transformer upgrade to give it a bit more oomph to the low end! This combo is Tungsten's interpretation of the famous 5F1 Tweed Champ circuit, known widely as one of the best tube practice amps ever created as well as an incredible blues harp player's amp! I have to say, this is a total blast to play. I absolutely love low wattage tube amps because you can drive them hard and remain at managable volumes. I could spend hours with this little guy experimenting with different preamp and power amp tubes. It has a cathode biased design, meaning you can swap out the 6V6 with a 6L6 without any biasing. The 6L6 will give you a bit more headroom, bringing you in to a whopping 9 watts! Plus, you can swap the preamp tube out for a number of different options...12AX7, 12AU7, 12AY7, 12AT7 and 5751 are all accepted. Totally killer and totally fun!! If you want to hear this actual amp in action, check out the Greg V demos below. Greg put it through the paces, then sent it on to us. He really digs into what this simple, yet highly effective amp is capable of! - Brian S. $825.00
