Bel voor prijsopgave

Great for performing singer/songwriters, it features two separate channels so you can run a guitar and a balanced mic together.   It's compact at 24x15x15 inches, and lightweight at 50 pounds considering what it delivers.


The California Blonde powers a 12" Celestion K12T-200 woofer (vented pole piece, oversized motor) in a rear loaded reflex cabinet, and a bullet style high frequency horn that can be switched off, with 120W RMS output power.  

Features 2 independent channels, mono and stereo inputs, master volume, footswitchable spring reverb with master control, stereo headphone jack, discrete solid-state front end, side-chain effects loops with blend controls for each channel, balanced line out, and a separate output for your tuner.  

From the SWR Manual:

"In the late '90s, with consumer demand skyrocketing, SWR introduced its first Workingman's® Series. A broader range of bassists could now get the famous SWR sound with simplified features. The Workingman's 15 combo amp, with more than 20,000 units sold, became the most successful product in SWR history. The California Blonde™ acoustic guitar amp, one of the most popular such amps on the market among professionals, made its debut.
...Also during this period, it had become clear to SWR that it wasn't only jazz and session players who wanted "that sound"--many rock bass players wanted the clarity and trueness of SWR."
