EVH 5150 Iconic Series 15W EL34 Amplifier Head Black, 240V AUS captures Eddie Van Halens legendary high-gain tone in a compact, affordable, and gig-ready format. Designed in collaboration with amp engineer James Brown, this two-channel all-tube head is powered by a single EL34 output tube and a duet of ECC83 preamp tubes, delivering fiery cleans, roaring crunch, and blistering leads with unmistakable EVH character.
The Green channel features an overdrive switch to move from sparkling cleans to grittier tones, while the Red channel includes a burn switch for added high-gain aggression. Both channels feature independent gain and volume controls for level-matched switching, plus a footswitchable Boost control to cut through any mix. Shared EQ, global resonance, presence, and reverb provide powerful tone-shaping options. Modern gigging features include speaker-emulated DI output, effects loop, dual speaker outs, power reduction, and headphone jack, making it equally suited for stage, studio, or home use. Wrapped in black textured vinyl with a brushed gold control panel, this amp head delivers iconic tone with striking EVH style.
