EVH 5150 MkIII 50W 6L6 amplifier head, USED

The EVH 5150 MkIII 50W 6L6 amplifier head is a modern high-gain powerhouse, designed for guitarists seeking unparalleled tone versatility and searing performance. This 50-watt amp incorporates the iconic sound of Eddie Van Halen's signature tones, refined for contemporary players who need a versatile and reliable workhorse.

At its heart, this amp is powered by 6L6 power tubes, which provide a robust, harmonically rich tone with plenty of punch and low-end clarity. The preamp section is armed with 12AX7 tubes, delivering everything from sparkling cleans to over-the-top distortion. Its three channels—clean, crunch, and lead—offer an expansive tonal palette. The clean channel is pristine and articulate, the crunch channel offers a gritty, classic rock-inspired drive, and the lead channel provides relentless high-gain saturation perfect for modern metal.

The amp features an intuitive control layout, with independent gain, volume, and EQ controls for each channel, giving players precise control over their sound. A built-in resonance control adds extra low-end depth and punch, while the global presence knob helps to shape the high frequencies to suit any venue or setting.

This compact and portable head pairs seamlessly with a range of cabinets and features dual speaker outputs, making it adaptable to various setups. A foot-switchable effects loop is included for integrating external pedals or effects seamlessly into your signal chain. The robust construction, featuring EVH’s signature black and white striped design, ensures durability and unmistakable style.

Whether you’re dialling in smooth cleans, crunchy rhythm tones, or crushing high-gain leads, the EVH 5150 MkIII 50W 6L6 delivers the sonic flexibility and ferocious power that has become synonymous with the EVH name.
