A ranges from clean through bluesy crunch and Long Term Performance - Please remember, these amps are 100% solid state. Unlike valve amps, their tone will not change with age. What you hear now, is the same as you’ll hear in 10, 20 or 30 years time. We do not employ the unreliable TDA7293 ‘power amp chips’ in any of our amplifiers, like Britain's leading guitar amp maker does. The Sessionette is also fitted with a Toroidal mains transformer. This reduces hum radiation by up to 70%. This is of particularbenefit to guitarists who use single coil pickup equipped guitars, when performing on a small stage and having to stand next to the amplifier. It has been twenty five years since the first Sessionette went on sale in April 1981. Sound Samples - Recorded 27th May 2006 in our workshop, customer Stuart Dixon was noodling on Stewart Ward’s 1963 Telecaster whilst waiting for his valve amp to be repaired... yet again. The Sessionette amp was mic’d with an SM58 and recorded direct to a MD recorder. No EQ or effects have been added, other than 2:1 compression at the mastering stage to get a better signal/noise ratio.
Buck 1 and Dist 5 were played by Stewart Ward on the same set-up.
