The All-New EVH® 5150® Iconic® Series
Description
The EVH 5150 Iconic 80W Guitar Amp Head is engineered to satisfy the needs of gigging and recording guitarists craving Eddie Van Halen's pure and powerful tone. Evolving from the revered EVH 5150 series, this amp head provides the searing sound and growling gain that defined Van Halen's pioneering style.
Authentic EVH Voice Courtesy of Premium Tubes
Powered by four JJ 6L6 power tubes and voiced with two JJ ECC83S preamp tubes, the 5150 Iconic 80W head delivers the firepower required for any musical situation. The Green channel offers lush cleans that gain up with the push of a button, while the Red channel's burn button ignites fiery crunch ideal for face-melting leads.
Sophisticated Tone-Shaping Tools
Each channel features dedicated Gain and Volume controls for balancing levels when switching between the sparkling clean and molten high-gain channels. The Red channel's noise gate provides a quick attack to articulate staccato riffs without choking sustain. A footswitchable Boost on Channel 2 adds 10dB of volume for solos that cut through the mix. Shared EQ, Resonance, and Presence knobs fine-tune the tone's low and high-end, while a global Reverb control provides the perfect splash of ambience for any room.
Performance-Ready Features
A two-button footswitch, effects loop, dual parallel speaker outputs, and a power reducer enabling cranked tones at lower volumes make the 5150 Iconic 80W head ideal for practice, studio, and stage. The speaker-emulated DI with power amp mute accurately captures the amp's tone for recording direct or running into a PA.
Distinctive EVH Styling
Sporting EVH's signature style, the 5150 Iconic 80W head is wrapped in textured black vinyl with a brushed aluminum faceplate, steel grille, and vintage-style controls. A fitted cover, available separately, protects this iconic amp during transport and storage.
