Sore-Throat guitar
amps.......the very 1ST to ….
1. Sore Throat Amps
were the first to run on 18 volts, two 9 volt batteries!
-reduces
components, takes full advantage of the IC's power.
2. Sore Throat Amps
were the first to use Standard 1/4 inch Jacks, for both Guitar input, and TRS Headphone output. (and, drive a
stereo amp with one cable)
3. Sore Throat Amps
were the first to eliminate tone controls and sound filters- now you can really
hear your pickups, fingers on the strings, and every distorted note you play!
4. Sore-Throat
headphone amps were the first distortion pedals you could use to listen to your other pedals- with close to 200 milliwatts of audio power!
5. From the very
first batch of amps, RCA jacks were installed for other Effects inputs, or, tap
into each stage for special amp use. (mad-scientists!)
6. Every
Sore-Throat Amp has a USA made, Double-Pole power rocker switch. Two
connections are available for external 18 volt power. (kick-on!)
7. The Guitar -in
Jack has an impedance –matching, L- network... now improved with a "620
Quad Carbon Audio Resistors" board!
8. The very first
engineering to remove capacitors from the IC circuit board- and hand
wire them, for easy replacement.
9. The IC board has
reverse- voltage protection-(anti-Jumper cables).
10 . Does anyone
else use vintage cloth wire from the 1950’s? Look for the blue stripes.
If you can’t find one at your local Pawn shop… ha-ha….
