About EVH 5150 III 50W EL34

Independent volume and gain control for all three channels has arrived with the 5150III 50W EL34 head. Experience total control, along with the same lethal looks and ferocious EL34 tone of the 100-Watt head. The EL34 power tubes deliver signature harmonic overtones, with more dynamic compression and saturation that evoke a more modern "British" sound, all with the sustain and versatility expected from EVH 5150III amps. Channel one boasts a more sparkling and compressed clean tone, while channels two and three possess a slightly darker and compressed tone with even more saturation than before.

Channels one and two each have dual concentric gain/volume controls, with shared EQ (low, mid, high), while channel 3 has an independent EQ. Other features include a rear-panel resonance control that tailors low-frequency response for all channels and a global presence control. Wrapped in an elegant gold and black EVH motif, the EL34 50-watt head also is equipped with an effects loop, headphone jack, pre-amp out and midi-in.

EVH 5150 III 50W EL34 Features

  • Its three (Clean, Crunch and Lead) channels capture a vast tonal landscape similar in style to what can be heard on early Van Halen records, delivering signature melodic overtones with increased dynamic compression and saturation to evoke a more modern f±Britishf sound, all with boundless sustain and versatility.
  • Features dual concentric controls that allow you to independently dial-in volume and gain for Ch. 1 and 2 for level matching. Ch. 3.
  • Equipped with global presence knob on the front panel creates full control over ultra-high frequencies.
  • There is no shortage of roaring tonal EL34 tonal swagger with this head, courtesy of its two JJ EL34 Apex
  • Features a MIDI rear panel input, which allows you to directly connect a digital effects interface and sync your tone to your favorite patch for even more tonal variance.
