Dr. Z Galaxie 112

Galaxie 112It has finally arrived - Dr.Z's first 6L6 offering!

The Galaxie is a channel switching (via footswitch) amp that combines classic tweed clean tones and smooth modern drive sounds. The clean channel nails the sweet swirling sound of classic tweed amps that have become the foundation of electric guitar tone. The drive channel is the result of Dr Z's 20 years of design experience. You'll find it has excellent sustain and a rich open sound with plenty of gain on tap for today's needs.

The output transformer is made by the venerable Triad company and is to the original spec found in classic tweed amps like the Super, Pro, and low powered Twin. Great care was taken to accurately reproduce this transformer. Dr Z is very excited to use the Triad transformer in this design.

The preamp consists of three 12AX7s coupled to a dual 6L6 output section and rectified by a 5U4. The Galaxie features a pentode/triode switch on the rear of the amp. This will enable 40 watts in pentode setting and 30 watts in triode.

The sweet big bottled sounds of the Galaxie are at your command. The Galaxie is set to explore!
