We all know that when going into the studio, you want a small low wattage amplifier that really works the tubes hard. Milkman have made amps for this situation before at 5W, 20W and higher, but what if you took it down to just 1W? Well the One Watt Plus answers that question wonderfully, and it really may be the best amp for the session player travelling from studio to studio.
From Clean To Crunch
Based on a classic American clean circuit, this little amplifier has a lot of tonal options within it, despite its simplicity. With Volume, Treble and Bass controls as you would expect, this amp is already a great option for those that want a no-frills plug and play amp that can work its way through almost any studio session.
The really cool control here is the Power Level, which takes the amp from 10W down to 1W or at any point in between. So if you really want that early breakup, take it down to 1W and let those tubes really work, or if you need more clean headroom then turn it up to 10W and hear those beautiful chimey cleans ring out.
Celestion Greenback Speaker
The Greenback is a legendary speaker from Celestion. Known for delivering a punchy and broad mid-range, this speaker also keeps your bass and treble frequencies tame and controlled for an articulate sound overall. For a low-wattage amplifier like this, the 12″ Celestion Greenback suits its specs perfectly.
Only The Best
Milkman amps pride themselves on using only the best components they can get their hands on. Not only that, but they highlight how these components are put together to create the most responsive and dynamic amplifier possible. This means everything is point-to-point wired on a turret board, for better tone and much easier maintenance.
Here’s what Milkman says about the One Watt Plus Combo:
The One Watt Plus amplifier adds more to the popular One Watt model.
More Power: The One Watt Plus has a pair of 6V6 tubes running in parallel for 10 watts of clean power, and 18 watts of harmonically rich overdriven power. Onboard power scaling drops the amp from 10 watts down to 1 watt so you can get the grind at bedroom volume with no change in tone.
More Speaker: Available as a 12″ combo, the One Watt Plus can move as much or as little air as you want it to. A bigger cabinet translates into more overall power.
More Class: The One Watt Plus has true Class A, single ended design. Both 6V6 power tubes run in parallel for a very dynamic and touch sensitive playing experience rich with even order harmonics.
Like all Milkman amplifiers, the One Watt Plus is hand wired onto a turret board with Mercury Magnetics transformers and Jupiter Capacitors standard. It is built into a custom aluminum chassis and housed in a Pine cabinet.
