Hi Gain 50W

This is probably the most well known Ken Fischer high gain circuit that became legendary for its sensitivity and retaining single note clarity at high levels of distortion. Again expect to pay US$20,000 - $30,000 for an original one of these...but i don't think too many people are selling these anymore...

This is a very alive amp, and when i first started to playing it, my immeadiate response was that every other amp i'd ever played had been asleep when compared to this one. Even at low volume settings, the notes leap out of the speakers. The notes are very detailed, articulate and punchy. This is a very loud amp and you will definitely never got lost in the mix again with one of these.  

The way to really use this circuit is turn the volume up to around halfway or just a little more and then dial in your clean to scream from you guitar's volume control. The amp can be run with with 6L6's for a very crisp punchy clean and a paint peeling, searing lead sound or EL84 tubes for a warmer and fuller clean sound and a more Marshall style breakup. I've also heard of people using 6V6's in this circuit but am yet to try it.  

It features highest quality caps, resistors and transformers throughout with point to point wiring and a turret circuit board.
