Reeves Amplification
At Reeves Amplification, we believe that while there are many amplifier choices on the market today, some discriminating players still prefer the classic British designs of the Dave Reeves HIWATT era. These amps were known for their legendary mil-spec build quality and peerless reliability, and of course for their unique tone unlike any other amp back then or since.

Reeves Custom Jimmy 50
Description

Reeves Custom Jimmy


The Custom 'Jimmy' is a faithful recreation of Page's Hiwatt amp that he used circa 1969 - 1971.  Constructed to the exact same specifications as an original HIWATT® design with Partridge replica transformers, dual channel pre-amp with 4 Inputs (2 Normal, 2 Bright). Normal volume and bright volume, bass, middle, treble, presence and master volume controls. Like all Reeves Amplifiers, the Custom Jimmy is entirely hand assembled using only the finest quality components assembled on a Garolite turret board utilizing "Mil-Spec" wiring techniques. 

What makes this amp different than other Hiwatt circuits of the same period is that is has more gain on tap...more vintage Marshall in nature.  And something even more unique is its foot switch volume cut.  The amount of volume cut is adjusted by the balance control on the front panel...in other words, the amp can be played with a more aggressive preamp tone (adjusted by the input control) and then switched, via the foot switch, to a less aggressive-more typical cleaner Hiwatt tone .  It works kind of like a two channel amp, but it is not.
