HOW IT WORKS

The DIRTY SINK 6VEL features a tone stack voicing switch that delivers the sweeter JTM tone control voicing and balanced gain response in one position, and the more in your face JMP voicing in the other. The Plexi/Cascade switch lets you select the amount of signal gain on tap to and assigns it to the Gain control knob. Plexi Mode is where you’ll find Crisp British clean to crunch. Cascade Mode is where you’ll find scorching high gain tones. The Gain Boost switch engages even more gain sending the tone stack driver stage into clipping without compromising the overall headroom of the tone. See below for a description of each of the three individual amp voices.

 

PLEXI/CASCADE

Set to Plexi Mode, you’ll find classic British clean to crunch tones. Set to Cascade Mode, you’ll find tones ranging from soaring solos to modern saturation.

+GAIN

Back in the day, players yearned for even more gain from their British lead style amplifiers and dreamed that this feature could be placed under foot switch control. We’ve added that here and we think it’s going to make a lot of people happy!

 

'65 JTM

The JTM45 debuted in ’65 bringing the punch and sustain of a certain American style bass amp but with a decidedly British angst. One circuit common to both was the tone stack featuring a 56k ohm slope resistor and a 250pf treble capacitor. This made for a sweeter tone with emphasis on the melody strings.

 

'68 JMP

The JMP amplifiers debuted around late ’67 bringing with it a distinctive mid-range frequency slice, increased sustain and of course, more power. One design tweak made a huge impact: a 33k ohm slope resistor and a 470pf treble capacitor. This increased overall gain, slice and punch… mission accomplished.
