This 30 watt head is for players who love the unique tone and bread-and-butter simplicity of the Monarch, but need it in a louder package for the big stage. Like other Bensons, it is fully hand-wired point to point on terminal strips using premium components and Mercury Magnetics transformers. Instead of a British-American switch, the Chimera has a bass control that takes the differences between the voices of the Monarch and makes them variable. The tone controls are musical and versatile…it is hard to find a harsh sound!
Other specifications include:
- 4 x JJ 6V6, 2 x JJ 12X7 preamp tubes, 5AR4 rectifier
- 30 watts
- Speaker outputs: 1 x 8 ohm, 1 x 16 ohm
- Head 18.5”W 8”H 8”D 22 lbs
- Point to point construction on terminal strips *no circuit, eyelet or turret board*
- Mercury Magnetics transformers
- Carbon Comp resistors
- Jupiter Capacitors
- DC filments for low noise
- Baltic birch head cabinet
- 100918B
