Bartel Starwood 28W Amp Head - Original Tweed

The 28W Starwood Head is a single channel Multi-Voice preamp that offers an incredibly wide range of voicings ranging from sparkly cleans to thick, woody tweed to driven Plexi crunch and grind. It includes tube-driven spring reverb with both mix and dwell controls to fine-tune the reverb sound to be as splashy or subtle as you choose.

A unique master volume circuit is extremely transparent, maintaining the same sound and vivid presence all the way down to bedroom volume.
