180W HMWB prototype / no FX loop / dyed black

Sold out




This was the first HMWB amp that was made. This was built with KT88 and a 200W transformer set to save cost vs building a prototype with 300W transformers and KT120. In the end it served it's purpose for dialing in the preamp a bit before building the real deal. Although there was only a few hours of playtime on this amp, all tubes were replaced and all tubes are brand new and the headcase is brand new.

The HMWB is the bass version of the HMW. Both amps can be used for both guitar and bass but the HMWB has a preamp that is better optimized for lower frequencies and the Treble shift acts more as a Mid shift. This prototype is made with HMW faceplates. Pricing is somewhere between 140W and 200W pricing since it has KT88 and 200W transformers, but only does 180W.
