It's a very simple amp. Just volume and tone. 15 Watt from 2 6V6 valves. The whole package looks very vintage. The cage is made out of steel and you can see the valves glowing.
What I really like is the low weight.
Sound Quality

One of the best amps I've ever heard. Beautiful full and warm clean with lots of harmonics. When driven into overdrive (end valve overdrive) it give a nice warm bluesy crunch. This is not a high gain amp.
It works great with overdrives and distortions. Using a Proco Solo it gives a mighty high gain sound.
Chris designed this amp for use with a Tele, but using a Strat or Les Paul, this amp works really well. I even sold my Tele, but the Studiocage will stay.

Chris is a great guy to deal with. He understands the wishes of his customers and knows how to translate this in a great amp.

I play for about 20 years. I've got several Gibsons, most from the custom shop. I own 2 US PRS's, 2 US strats. Marshall Studio 15, Vox AC15CC, Marshall DSL100, Marshall 6101LE, Orange AD5 etc.
When this amp would be stolen, I would buy another one immediately
