adjective

1. of, relating to, or having the qualities of Falstaff, especially his robust, bawdy humor, good-natured rascality, and brazen braggadocio:

2. A clean to mean 50W head made by Hawkins Amplification

3. We started with a trusted known rock and roll amp platform and expanded it’s features to give you everything from clean to mean in a single channel head. It starts with your basics, bass, middle, treble, and presence controls that are more dynamic and then added a depth and feel control. Depth is like a resonance control and adds bone shaking lows or trims off the flub. The Feel control is like an attitude knob, turned down its loud, aggressive, and in your face. Turn it up and it gets more refined, compressed and tight. The Gain control goes from pristine cleans (this amp has reaaallly great cleans) to all out distorted crunch. The volume is very responsive and equipped with a secret weapon. Pulling the knob out engages Jose’ style clipping for saturated tones. Plug in any cabinet into the parallel speaker outputs with selectable 4, 8, or 16 ohm settings. Tube compliment is (2) EL-34 and (3) 12AX7. Turretboard construction on a heavy duty epoxy board with 1W resistors, Mallory 150 coupling capacitors, F&T filter capacitors, Alpha potentiometers, Carling switches, and Switchcraft jacks. Handmade birch cabinet in your choice of tolex, knobs, and jewel light color. 4-6 week lead time.
