Magnatone Super Fifteen Billy Gibbons Chrome Grape

Magnatone Super Fifteen Billy Gibbons Chrome Grape

Palen Music Center is thrilled to present the Magnatone Super Fifteen Billy Gibbons Chrome Grape, a truly exceptional all-tube combo amplifier that delivers a punchy British tone with unmistakable Magnatone character, all wrapped in a stunning, limited-edition finish. Crafted with American precision, this amp is a testament to boutique quality and timeless design, offering both classic inspiration and modern functionality. The "Chrome Grape" cosmetic, part of the exclusive Billy Gibbons Collection, is a multi-step finishing process inspired by Billy's love of hot rod cars and custom paint colors, featuring a silver crocodile texture hand-tinted with a nitro celluloid finish, complete with white piping and chrome hardware for a truly eye-catching aesthetic.

At the heart of the Super Fifteen's remarkable tone are its tube complement: three 12AX7 preamp tubes and two EL84 power tubes. This carefully selected combination provides a versatile tonal palette, from sparkling cleans to aggressive, full-bodied British-style crunch. The EL84 power tubes are known for their lively, articulate breakup, allowing you to achieve rich Class AB tube overdrive at manageable volumes, perfect for club gigs or studio sessions. The amp’s construction, from its hand-built circuitry to its custom-designed 12-inch ceramic-magnet speaker, ensures exceptional durability and sonic integrity, guaranteeing that this amp will inspire for years to come.

While drawing inspiration from golden-era British amplifiers, the Super Fifteen is far from a mere clone. It boasts a unique, proprietary Magnatone circuit design that offers a distinct voice. With independent gain and master volume controls, you have complete command over your desired level of preamp and power section saturation, ensuring stellar tone whether you're pushing the tubes or playing at lower volumes. The inclusion of high and low-gain inputs caters to various pickup types and playing styles, making it an incredibly adaptable amplifier for any discerning guitarist. This special Billy Gibbons edition embodies the spirit of rock 'n' roll with its unique visual appeal and classic, powerful sound.
