What we say:
At A Glance:
The PRS Archon 50W 1x12 Combo is a compact but supremely powerful amplifier. Much like PRS guitars the Archon quickly took the guitar world by storm by providing a huge amount of musical gain tones and a superb clean channel that is often hard to find in high gain amps. Like everything PRS do, the design and development was meticulous all to provide a product that is unique, playable, and sensible for every day life.
Features We Love:
All Tube Tone
No digital tones here with 2x JJ 6CA7 poweramp tubes and 6x JJ ECC83S preamp tubes every ounce of tone from the Archon is powered by tubes. Providing a rich warm foundation that only gets better the harder you push the amp, an all tube tone is still a sought after sound and one of the many reasons the PRS Archon has become an instant mainstay for many guitarists.
5 Gain Stages
Providing a huge range of tone, from sparkly cleans, to classic rock, to all out saturation the Archon delivers. With 5 gain stages all before the master volume you can continue to push your tone or pull it back however you like to find the perfect sweet spots.
Bright Switches
With an already versatile range of controls the added Bright switches on each channel offer a great boost to either tone. Acting as a slight treble boost which adds a shine to your high end that doesn't get too harsh.
Highlights:
- All tube tones
- Huge range of gain for a variety of tones
- Bright switches act as a high end boost
- Powerful 50 Watt design in a compact head
