FRONT PANEL FEATURES
1. Simul-Class Power Toggle Switch
A half-power option appears on the POWER SWITCH and gives
you a choice of 90 watts of Simul-Class Power—where one pair of
the stock 6L6 run in Class AB and one pair run in CLASS A—or 45
watts of Class A power for a lower threshold of power clip.
2. Mode Selector Mini Toggle Switch
The Mode switch allows you to switch between three separate
modes: VINTAGE HI, CLEAN AND VINTAGE LO.
The “black face era” inspired CLEAN Mode delivers the low gain
sweet, sparkling chording sounds that originally put Fullerton, CA. on
the Tone map. Mesa/Boogie’s patented output scheme blanches out
harsh frequencies and enhances the beautiful even-order harmonics
and sub-low breath.
The Electra-Dyne pays tribute to the classic British circuits with
the medium gain punch of VINTAGE LO. The input is routed to
a separate input tube, a different set of pots and a whole different signal path dishes out Classic Rock with enhanced levels of
nuance. This LO Mode is delivers medium gain crunch chording
and when cranked, will saturate without losing its aggressive attack
and chesty thump.
Selecting VINTAGE HI unveils a new take on the custom-modified
British theme and delivers liquid, molten gain. More tube stages are
added and circuitry flipped to create this Boogie-ized, Simul-Class
rendering of a modified English amp, with huge crunch chords and
soaring single note sounds.
