In the beginning, amplifiers were literally just amplification tools for an instrument. Over time, additions like tone controls for off-instrument EQ tweaks, the ability to intentionally overdrive the preamp for gain and saturation without requiring loud output volume, and multiple channels with individual gain and EQ stacks came into vogue as technology progressed and, more importantly, as the need for these features was identified by players. Today, in a world of effect pedals, direct out, and signal chain splitting, the sky is pretty much the limit for players looking for an amplifier that accommodates their specific functional needs to achieve their tone. Hughes and Kettner has clearly done its homework on what players want and need and poured all their research into their TubeMeister series.
The Hughes and Kettner TubeMeister 18 is an 18 watt tube amp powered by two 12AX7 tubes in the preamp and two EL84 tubes in the power amp that features two channels, a four-stage power soak for lower wattage output, passive EQ, easy biasing and a Red Box direct XLR output with speaker simulation. The amp head ships with a padded soft case with handles and can be switchable via pedal with the optional FS-2 footswitch.
