Fade To Grey

Fade To Grey Fade To Grey manufactures hand-wired handmade valve guitar amplifiers, speaker cabinets and distortion pedals. Products are currently heavily discounted!

Typically half price or less. We also perform valve amp mods/repairs/re-tubes etc. Since 2007 Fade To Grey has designed and manufactured a range of hand-wired handmade valve guitar amplifiers, speaker cabinets and distortion pedals. Fade To Grey was established in order to produce quality audio equipment primarily for musical instrument amplification. Every aspect of production is performed by han

d, excepting that of the discrete components and some of the chassis used. Fade To Grey does not use printed circuit boards upon which to mount components, but uses purpose built turret boards with all wiring performed by hand. The components are of high quality. Semiconductors (transistors, diodes etc) are not used in the audio signal path of Fade To Grey amp designs. The customer has the option of valve or semiconductor based amp power supplies. Fade To Grey offers customization of products without charging additionally for this service, with the understanding that a custom requested design might also be offered as a product of Fade To Grey to other customers. In this way a product range can be built up that will hopefully fulfill the common needs of other musicians or music lovers. Fade To Grey are also willing to build unusual systems. Fade To Grey also offers modifications on existing hand-wired guitar/bass amps in order to e.g. improve the warmth, increase the overdrive, replace the existing cabinet, build an amp head into a combo, turn a combo into a head and separate speaker cabinet. Fade To Grey also performs valve replacement, testing & biasing in existing amplifiers. Finally, Fade To Grey is also happy to build valve based Hi Fi preamps/amps of either open or enclosed design.

Hollow State Audio presents SimpleTone ...
A 10w boutique combo guitar amplifier $1600
Description:
Hand-crafted, point-to-point handwired 10W Class A/B, Hot Cathode Biased Combo Guitar Amplifier with standard Gain, Bass, Treble and Volume controls. On the rear it has a single speaker output jack, and a direct-out jack with level control for PA or recording use.
SimpleTone sports an Italian-made Jensen P10Q classic Alnico 10" 40 W 16 ohm American-voiced speaker, Canadian-made Hammond chassis, transformers and choke, vintage NOS Allen Bradley 2W Carbon Composition resistors, vintage NOS Yugoslavian Ei EL84/6bq5 power-amp valves, Tungsol 12AX7 preamp valves, and AR4 valve rectifier.
The cabinet is handcrafted from aged-reused 22mm Blackbutts timber, and the entire unit weighs around 19 kg.
This lovely open-backed guitar amplifier is sweet and bright in tone with plenty of presence and a hint of natural bite. The solid cabinet allows for a very sturdy bottom-end. It includes an internal presence circuit set to about mid-way, allowing for a very present sound without being overbearing or gaudy. The Italian-made alnico speaker encourages the bell-like tones anticipated in such a speaker. The overall tonality compares with a cross between a smaller push-pull based vintage Fender amplifier, and a Vox-AC10 or AC15.
SimpleTone was gradually built over a period of two years, with over 50 hours of labour going into its build.
Please drop by (Forestville, Sydney) and try this unique and one-off all Australian-made combo-guitar-amplifier.
A 2 year warranty is given with this amp excluding valves*, and ongoing support if there are any requests.
*3 months on valves
Regards, Gary
