ValveTrain Trenton Pro Guitar Combo Amplifier (27 Watts, 1x12")
zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Go from early '60s black face era tone to vintage tweed territory with the distinct, switchable voices of this Trenton Pro's hand-wired, all-tube circuit.
Overview
Designed in the tradition of the masters, the ValveTrain Trenton Pro features a pair of 12AX7 dual-triode preamp tubes driving the signal through a matched pair of cathode biased 6L6GC power tubes. Inspired by the simplicity of the amp designs of the 1960s, the amp controls are Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass and the Governor.
To address the needs of today's guitarist, the Trenton Pro boasts 2 distinct switchable voices through its hand-wired all tube circuit. The RAW switch disables the tone controls and takes you from the early '60s black face era right to vintage tweed territory. The Bright switch adds glass and bite to the tone.
The Governor is a output power management control originally designed by Dennis Kager. ValveTrain is pleased to bring this control back to the market through a special arrangement with Dennis. The Governor can be completely switched out of the circuit enabling the full output from the power amp. Power reduction via the Governor is variable. The further the Governor is advanced the more the power is reduced. Once activated the Governor can variably tame the smoking 27 watts of dual 6L6GC power down to an apartment friendly 1 watt.
Using the various combinations of the Raw switches and the Governor, the player can access a pallet of tones that are inspired by the smaller amps of the late 1950s and early 1960s.
The Trenton Pro delivers a varied tonal spectrum from shimmering Black Face cleans through vintage Tweed crunch. A quick flick of the RAW switch… read more and guitar volume knob controls the full range of the Trenton Pro's voices. The Trenton Pro is great for home, studio or small venues. Put a microphone in front of it and it will fill the largest of venues.
All ValveTrain amplifiers continue to prove that high value and affordable hand wired production amplification is still built in America. All of the major components including cabinet, transformers, speakers, board and chassis are proudly made in America. ValveTrain amps are hand-wired in Altamonte Springs, Florida. There are over 50 American small businesses in the supply chain behind every ValveTrain amp.

"Nice amp lousy company"

Amp sounds good so long as you don't run into issues. Amp died 5 months in and customer service is non-existent. Emails and phone calls unreturned. After I finish paying someone else to fix this I'll be at the cost of having purchased an amp from a more reputable manufacturer. American made is what sold me, it isn't worth the hassle in the end.
