Cornell Romany Plus Guitar Amplifier
Cornell Romany Plus Guitar Amplifier
The
Cornell-Romany has a natural distortion sound
that was popular in America back at the
beginning of guitar amplifier design.
Amplifier-makers at that time sold it to the
Blues heroes whose technique has since become
the classic distortion sound. The output is
produced from a single valve, known as
"single-ended class A output". The lack of
cross-over distortion when the valve clips,
results in the Cornell-Romany tone.
The Cornell-Romany Plus amplifier employs this
classic output design by not having gain or
master volume controls, only the output valve is
involved in the distortion sound. The drawback
with this design is that the distortion sound is
only achieved at maximum output, and at 10 watts
the sound is enough to penetrate walls and upset
neighbours. To overcome this we have a unique
power reduction design that reduces the output
over 4 levels; the maximum of 10 watts is
reduced to around 0.05 watts. These 4 settings
will allow you to play from a considerably
distorted sound to a clean 10 watts, that is
more than enough head room to accompany an
acoustic piano, for example.
