The Super Watt is designed around the legendary Hiwatt DR103 tube amp. The Super Watt captures the headroom and crystal clarity of the original amp, allowing for powerful tube tones for bass and guitar. Push the front end hard for a nice tube breakup, or play it clean and clear.
The passive EQ interacts intuitively, making for a highly musical tone stack that cuts through without any shrill, ultra high frequencies. The low end is full and clear, and can be boosted for extra presence for bass guitar.
The internal charge pump has been specifically designed for tube audio, providing high voltage with very low noise. Where other supplies oscillate and whine, this supply idles with ease.
The Super Watt comes equipped with a new production JJ 12AX7 tube. If you want even more headroom and lower gain, you can replace the tube with lower gain 12A tubes, such as the 12AT7. Unplug the power supply before opening up the pedal and changing the tube.
The pedal requires a 12V DC power supply for maximum performance. The pedal can be powered by a 9V supply, but the gain and headroom will be decreased. Do not use a supply greater than 12V or less than 9V. The supply must be capable of providing at least 300 mA, and must be regulated. The supply must use a 2.1mm barrel with center negative polarity.
The Super Watt has a true bypass switch.
