Sound Pure's Take
The 40 watt Blackbird combo offers TONS of clean headroom, and truly BOLD tone. This is the blackface-style amp of choice, here at the shop!
The three dimensional cabinet design aids to a volume level that can reach nearly twice what you would expect from a 40 watt amp. It's plenty of power for a wide variety of stages and records beautifully. Definitely takes pedals very very well.
I can send you the high resolution sound clips from the demo video of this amp for a closer listen! I highly recommend taking full advantage of the media that only SoundPure can offer!
