Description
Small but mighty: Chappers' marvellous mini head is fit for home, studio and stage. One channel, no messing…
This ultra compact, single-channel head is a superb sounding rock machine, designed for real, all-valve tone wherever you go. Despite the tiny box, the dual EL84, fixed-bias power section delivers up to 28 watts in full power mode, and just 2 watts in low power. And it's only 263mm wide – smaller than an A4 sheet of paper! Chappers puts it best: "I wanted something that was affordable, doesn't compromise on tone and is made in England. It's a straight-ahead, giggable, no-nonsense valve amplifier: clean to scream at the turn of a knob."
Contour
Contour increases bass and decreases mids when turned clockwise (and vice versa). The deep switch increases low frequency response in the power amp.
Effects Loop
The RD1's series effects loop has a mix control so you can hear as much or as little of your loop effects as you like.
Power Section
The fixed-bias power section delivers up to 28 watts in high power mode and just 2 watts in low power mode
