Killer Modern Tones with Traditional Reverb or Digital Effects
Ten years ago, powerful small amps were what Crate was all about. To many people, they were known as the absolute best compact, solid-state, high gain, versatile, innovative, modern, powerful, rehearsal amps available anywhere.
Well, guess what: They still are!
Many of their major awards through the years have been for innovation and excellence with expensive products. You would expect companies to pour a ton of R & D into creating innovation in expensive models, but they actually still work as hard as ever to make sure that you get the toughest, most innovative, excellent sounding and affordable amps in every category.
For example, the GX Series with FlexWave and spring reverb continue to be recognized as clear leaders in the industry. The patented circuitry replicates the tone, response, and feel of a hard-driven tube amp, using more efficient solid-state components. Crate has been evolving this circuit since 1980 and now include the "Evolution Five" FlexWave preamp design in every GX and GFX amp they make.
In fact, the entire GX and GFX Series including the GFX50TT Two Tone two player amp continue the reputation of Crate as one of the youngest, most powerful and innovative amp lines in the world.
