Description
Compact, powerful, and purpose-built for the stage, the EVH 5150III 50S 6L6 Head delivers Ed Van Halen's renowned touring tone in a streamlined 50-watt format. Designed for players who demand arena-level volume and performance in a portable package, this three-channel amp covers the full tonal spectrum-from sparkling cleans to chunky rhythm crunch, tight distortion, and soaring, high-gain leads. Independent dual-concentric gain and volume controls allow for precise level matching across channels, offering greater control and seamless transitions in any live or studio setting.
Updated to meet Eddie's exact touring specifications, channel one provides crystal-clear headroom and articulation, while channel two features increased gain and improved low-mid definition for enhanced punch and sustain. Channel three expands the range of the low control and unleashes even more fluid, saturated gain. Channels one and two share a three-band EQ with dual-concentric controls, while channel three benefits from its own dedicated gain, volume, and EQ section. Global presence and resonance controls further refine the amp's overall response and feel.
Wrapped in stealthy black textured vinyl with a dual black EVH striped steel grille, this head looks as aggressive as it sounds. The 5150III 50S 6L6 head is a formidable, road-ready amplifier worthy of the EVH legacy.
