Eddie Van Halen's legendary touring sound is now available in a compact 50-watt package with the EVH® 5150III® 50S 6L6 Head. This portable powerhouse brings arena-level performance to any venue, featuring three versatile channels that cover everything from pristine clean tones to searing high-gain leads. The newly added independent dual-concentric controls provide precise gain and volume matching across channels, making it easier than ever to dial in your perfect sound.
Each channel has been carefully tweaked to Eddie's exacting touring standards. Channel one produces crystal-clear clean tones, while channel two offers increased gain with improved low-mid frequency definition for chunky overdrive textures. Channel three pushes the boundaries further with enhanced range on the "low" control and liquid high-gain saturation. Channels one and two share EQ controls with their dual concentric gain/volume knobs, whilst channel three features its own dedicated gain, volume and three-band EQ section.
The amplifier's tube complement includes seven JJ ECC83 preamp valves and a pair of Shuguang 6L6 power tubes, with switchable output impedance options of 4, 8 and 16 ohms plus adjustable bias control. Additional features include global presence and resonance controls, effects loop, direct output, and a four-button footswitch for seamless channel switching.
Finished in striking black textured vinyl with EVH's signature dual black striped steel grille, this stealth head combines vintage aesthetics with modern functionality. The classic "chicken head" control knobs, red lamp jewel, dual speaker outputs and moulded handle complete the package, making it both visually impressive and road-ready.
