Boston Duane-Jr

General

Since some of the most recognisable guitar sounds from the 1960s and 1970s came from small tube amplifiers, it's only logical that these warm and vintage-style models have become quite popular again. Nice and compact, this 5-Watt Duane Jr. from Boston is great for both home and studio use and comes fitted with basic tone controls so you can quickly lay down a solid foundation sound. Its 6V6-charged power amp section is more than happy to take any pedal you'd want to hook up, while the 12AX7 tube in the preamp effortlessly amplifies your fuzz, overdrive or distortion stompboxes. Meanwhile, the fitted 8-inch Eight 15 speaker from Celestion reproduces potent sound with deep bass, tons of mid-range presence and just the right amount of bite in the highs. To guarantee great and lasting quality, Boston used orange-drop capacitors and a hand-wired turret board to build the Duane Jr.
