Leonidas "Spartan 30"
After a series of gigs, the amp tested good for life on the road. Still some minor tweaks to be done, but the sound is "vintage awsome". Extremely responsive, and detailed on the clean and crunch sounds, and amazingly juicy overdrive.
Features an internal user-friendly bias control, pentode or triode operation for the power section, a two mode pre-selector to sum the 2 chanels out of phase (like 1960 AC30 design), or keep them stock (for juicier tone). Using NOS amperex ef86 (for chanel one), NOS 12ax7 valvo tubes for pre (chanel 1,2 and eq.), and NOS GE Jan for phase inverter, to get a very detailed sound. It was used in combination with a 1x12 open-back cabinet with an alnico gold.
