Key Features:

• Dual Channels with Footswitch Control: Switch between two foot-switchable channels with ease. An additional 20db boost on the dirt channel, also foot-switchable, provides versatile sound options for any playing style (footswitch included).
• Tube Configuration: The clean channel is powered by one 12AX7 tube, while the dirt channel and phase inversion are powered by two 12AX7 tubes and one more for phase inversion. The power section boasts a quartet of EL84 tubes, synonymous with lower wattage Marshall amps, providing a warm, classic tone.
• Powerful and Versatile: With a 40W output, this amp can cater to both practice and performance needs. The option to use EL34 tubes instead offers additional versatility.
• Responsive to Customization: Like all serious tube amps, the DSL 401's sound character can vary with different tubes, guitar outputs, and other elements in your signal chain.

The Clean Channel:

• Rich Overdrive Potential: Although not super clean with high-output guitars like a Les Paul, the clean channel offers a robust preamp headroom for guitars like Strat or Tele. With a Les Paul, expect a breakup above nine o'clock on the preamp gain, while a Strat can maintain clarity until around noon.
• Headroom Customization: Swap out preamp tubes or change the speaker for even more headroom if desired.
• Exceptional Pedal Platform: The clean channel handles overdrive pedals and fuzzes with remarkable ease, perfect for crafting your unique sound.
