This is the answer for those wanting an Archon with a hotrod vintage Lead channel gain structure without changing preamp tube types and a juiced up Clean channel without having to use a boost pedal all wrapped up in a retro inspired cabinet design.” – Doug Sewell, PRS Amp Designer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe PRS Archon Classic is a powerful, two-channel amp designed for rock and roll players who crave classic tones but still want the ability to push beyond. With a refined gain structure from the original Archon, the Archon Classic’s Lead Channel offers a wider range of gain flavors – especially in the midrange – and the Clean Channel goes from pristine clean to edge of breakup sounds with ease. The 3-dimensional tone of the Archon Classic delivers lush highs and tight low-end, all while maintaining excellent note separation and articulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Archon Classic’s intuitive control layout with 3-band EQs allows players to best dial in their tones. The individual channel volume and master volume controls work together to command the amp’s loudness and distortion. The bright switch acts almost as a treble boost, putting a shine on the amp’s high-end without going into icepick territory. The global presence and depth controls in the Archon’s power amp section both work to modify the feedback network of the amp to unleash the potential of the high- and low-end respectively. Turning up the Presence control releases more high-mid and treble frequencies, bringing the amp’s tone forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDepending on the tone stack and volume settings, the Presence can change the gain\/texture and loudness of the high-end, making your tone wilder and more 3-dimensional (or more “present” sounding). In addition to adding low-end, the Depth control allows players to choose between a tight, focused sound or a more resonant, bass-heavy response. For players looking to add a pedal board, the Archon Classic provides ample headroom and built-in effects loop in addition to its ultra-clean tonal platform. The Archon Classic combines rugged construction with sleek aesthetics, ensuring it stands out on stage and remains reliable on the road. Whether you’re playing classic rock or pushing the envelope into modern territory, this amp is built to deliver the sound you desire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeneral\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable Configurations: Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChannels: Lead \u0026amp; Clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWattage: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTubes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Tubes: (2) JJ 6CA7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreamp Tubes: (6) JJ ECC83S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFront Panel Controls\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead Channel: Master Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble, Bright Switch, Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean Channel: Master Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble, Bright Switch, Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlobal Controls: Presence, Depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBack Panel Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlet: Fused Power Inlet (IEC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffects Loop: Series, Tube Driven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtension Speaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJacks: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOhm Selections: (2) 4 ohm parallel, (2) 8 ohm parallel, (1) 16 ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBias: Adjustable with Monitoring Jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFootswitch Jack: ¼” mono\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovering: Black Paisley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePiping: Black Embossed Welt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanel: Black Textured Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle: Stitched Black Faux Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmp Width: 21.5” (54.6 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmp Depth: 10” (25.4 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmp Height: 10” (25.4 cm) including feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmp Weight: 32.4 lbs (14.7 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncluded Accessories\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Accessories: 1-Button Footswitch for Channel Switching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreamp Tube Positions \u0026amp; Functions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV1: Input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV2: Clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV3: Lead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV4: Lead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV5: Loop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV6: Phase Inverter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: PRS Guitars\u003cbr\u003eModel: AMACHD_U5L6-BP--\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I946624-N-0-WHXC\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 825362295860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
