Authentic Valve-Like Tone

Designed to capture the warmth and dynamics of a true tube amp, the Debut 50’s MOSFET technology recreates the feel of a responsive valve circuit. The clean channel is inspired by the HT-20R MKII, offering crystal-clear tones with plenty of headroom and a “Bright” switch for added sparkle. The overdrive channel, based on the St. James 6L6, delivers everything from classic blues to high-gain rock and metal tones.
