Trinity Tramp Overview

The single-ended design features a variable-level DC power supply and swappable output octal tubes for power stage distortion at a variety of volume levels. Utilizing one 12AX7 preamp tube, the design also supports one 6V6, 6L6, KT66, EL34, 6CA7 or KT77 power tube. Controls include Power On-Power Level, Volume/Tweed-'Tude, Bass/Fat-Thin, Treble, Master Volume. The Tramp lives in a hand-crafted, finger jointed, pine cabinet, finished in a variety of coverings or au naturel.

The Power On switch is incorporated in the Power Level control which adjusts the Trinity Amps Voltage Regulation Module (VRM). The VRM allows raging tones at volumes that guys who played in loud bands in the 70's won't be able to hear! The Volume control double as a gain control when in 'Tude mode, and incorporates the Tweed / 'Tude pull switch. There's also the extremely effective Master Volume control.

Bass and Treble are subtle yet effective and sound great through their entire travel. The Bass control incorporates the Fat/Thin pull switch. Thin/Fat is especially useful. Thin is lean, clean and tight, Fat really thickenss things up and pushes a little more gain into the circuit. Both Thin/Fat work with any guitar - not only when you have to use Thin with a Les Paul because Fat is too fat, or you have to use Fat with a Tele because Thin is too strident. You get two different and useful options with every guitar.

All the controls do what you'd expect them to. But they also act as interactive tone controls. For example, use the Bass control in tandem with the Master Volume, or the Treble in tandem with the VRM. Increasing the Master Volume can bring up the bottom end of the tone, and increasing the VRM can add top end to the tone. This is one of the coolest parts of the amp because as you work these tandem controls in opposite directions, the treble/middle/bass relationships in the tone don't change, but the tonal quality itself changes! And in the absence of a mid control, by changing the relationships between the tandem controls you can effectively control the midrange!

'It's rare to find such complimentary contrasting modes with so much range in one amp!'
