Jackson Ampworks NewCastle 30 MKII Head - Black
- DESCRIPTION
The Jackson Ampworks NewCastle 30 is the latest rendition of this very popular amplifier. Brad Jackson designed this to cover all ground between classic British clean, and straight up rock and roll! The previous version the 18 watt Newcastle) was loved by many, but lacked that nice clean headroom we all need to have. The Newcastle 30 addressed this concern with four EL84's in the power section giving more volume before breakup. In fact, it remains clean until the volume hits about 2:00 on the dial, making it a formidable pedal platform for all you pedal junkies out there!
Now, what makes this amp quite special is the "Power" control on the front. It's actually more of a "Master Voltage" than a "Master Volume". What this means is it varies the high voltage being sent to the power section ranging from 30 Watts Class A down to 1/8th of a watt Class A.
