Description
Here is what Hiwatt say about the Hiwatt Custom Range Super-Hi 50 Amp Head with Custom Shop Footswitch:
Classic Hiwatt at its core, the Super-Hi 50 is a hot-rodded, extreme hi-gain firebreather designed by heavy-metal Mike Fortin. Clarity, punch, string definition, and tight low-end are at the focus of this amp’s design making it especially suited for drop tunings and extended-range instruments.
Four cascading gain stages with an additional boost provided by the Custom Shop SUPER-HI Footswitch (included).
Independent gain and master volume controls for both channels.
Extreme high gain tones that don’t fall apart. Push this beast to your heart’s content, maintaining constant clarity, articulation, and responsiveness, especially in low tunings.
Hiwatt’s premiere offering for low tunings, baritone, and extended-range instruments.
Effects loop running after the high-gain preamp section for lush time-based or modulation effects.
Based on the the original DR504 circuit, this amp loves gain Pedals in front, faithful to its predecessor.
