OVERVIEW
The DSL 20 Head and DSL 20 Combo feature the same functions. The combo is equipped with a 12” Celestion Seventy-80 speaker chosen for its ability to deliver exceptional tone and flexibility.
The DSL features two foot switchable channels: CLASSIC GAIN and ULTRA GAIN.
The CLASSIC GAIN channel can deliver sparkling clean sounds through to the more aggressive break-up of a Marshall JCM800 amplifier. The ULTRA GAIN channel provides even more distortion and break-up for players looking for high gain tone from their amplifier.
Both channels share a passive three-band EQ, with BASS, MIDDLE and TREBLE controls. The EQ section also features Tone Shift, which when activated reconfigures the pre-amp mid frequencies making DSL ideal for contemporary metal tones, especially when combined with higher gain settings.
The DSL 20 features professional quality digital REVERB and a series FX LOOP. The LOW POWER function adds a further dimension to the DSL sound, giving you rich valve tone at an ear-friendly volume.
