Used Trinity Plexi 18-Watt 2x12 Combo Amplifier w/ Eminence Red Coats
Trinity Amplifiers 18-Watt 2x12 Combo loaded with Eminence "The Wizard" Red Coats. The Plexi Mk II design uses selected "Brown" components that gets you very close to the Van Halen sound. Hot licks but with a very surprising clean tone with gain turned down. This amp can move some real air! Lots of crunchy to high gain AC/DC tones and clean tones with the gain turned down and the master up. Leave the gain low and crank the master for quite a lot of headroom with big fat cleans.
More from the Trinity website:
These amps sound and feel like bonafide Marshalls, albeit quieter, with a design borrowed from the early Watkins Dominator circuit. The truly exhibit the much sought after, famous Marshall crunch. Marshall 18 Watt amps were built between 1966 and 1968, or so, and only a few hundred were made.
The two-channel amplifier does away with negative feedback, allowing the amplifier to run open-loop or wide band. This is why the 18 Watt sounds full and rich at low or high volume levels. These features are very much a part of the distinctive tone.
Because of size, this item is listed for local pickup at our store in Evanston, IL only.
