JRT 9/15 Head
Dual-power-mode head with two independently voiced 5879-driven parallel channels, usable alone or together, and a 6-position tone control.
About this amp
The JRT 9/15 drives two 5879 preamp pentodes in parallel, each independently voiced (one brighter with later breakup, one lower-headroom with dense low-mids) and usable alone or together. Switches between 9W (6V6, Class A) for warm vintage American tones and 15W (EL84, Class AB) for bright, chimey British-style breakup. Hand-built and point-to-point wired in California.
