18 SPECIAL Designed after our VOX Hand‐ wired Heritage AC30H2 this model provides the sparkle that is synony‐ mous with the pairing of a classic VOX amplifier and the famed Celes‐ tion Alnico Blue. CUSTOM This models the AC30BM Brian May signature model which faithfully reproduces every nuance of the leg‐ endary original AC30 from the 1950’s. This setting provides the screaming sound of the amp being overdriven with the treble booster turned on. 7. UK ROCK STANDARD This 45W amp head was originally manufactured from 1962 to 1966, and was based on a tweed‐covered bass amp. Its high‐gain design was the beginning of the British amp tone revolution that continues to this day. SPECIAL This models a UK‐manufactured 100W single‐channel head with master volume made in 1983. Turn the GAIN control all the way up to get that thick, snarling hard rock and heavy metal sound that dominated the 80’s. CUSTOM This models the high treble channel of a hand‐wired amp head made in England during the early 60’s. Raising the vol‐ ume of this 50W output amp all the way produces the crunch that will forever be the sound of rock ‘n’ roll. 8. UK METAL STANDARD This models the high‐gain channel of a modern 100W amp. While individual notes are clearly defined, it delivers a mon‐ ster sound that’s quite aggressive and arrogant. SPECIAL This models an English‐made 100W amp head released in 2007, boasting a four‐channel design with powerful tone. We’ve used the “Overdrive 1” channel that produces a tight low‐end and transparent high‐gain metal sound. CUSTOM Based on a UK‐made 100W head, this amp was created for a famous guitarist known for his amazing tone, slash rhythms, and liking for silk hats. If you have a desire for ultimate metal tones, this amp will be the perfect choice. 9. US HIGAIN STANDARD This models a 100W boutique amp head manufactured in North Hollywood. This amp can be switched between power tube class AB or class A modes; the class AB mode used on the <strong>ToneLab</strong> <strong>EX</strong> produces rich overtones and highly musical response.
SPECIAL This models the overdrive channel of a snakeskin‐covered 100W amp head made in 1991. With an open low‐end and a compressed mid/high range, its powerful and heavy sound delivers a forceful tone that will not break down even with the most extreme gain settings. CUSTOM Designed to model the sound behind “POWER METAL” this amp will crank! 10.US METAL STANDARD This models the modern high‐gain channel from a wild beast of a high‐gain amp. Its deep and loose low‐end, sparkling highs, and monstrous gain are ideal for guitars tuned as low as possible, or for metal acts wielding seven‐string guitars. SPECIAL This models a California‐made amp head with a three‐chan‐ nel design and versatile gain switches that produce a wide variety of sounds. We’ve modeled the lead channel that pro‐ duces the ultimate high‐gain tone. CUSTOM This two‐channel 120W head manufactured in Mississippi was designed for a legendary guitar hero known for his “brown sound.” This amp models features a high‐gain sound that’s ideal for the two hand tapping performance technique. 11.BTQ METAL STANDARD This models the overdrive channel of a 100W high‐quality amp that was produced only on special order, and known as the overdrive special. The wonderful sustain obtained by raising the GAIN control is smooth and soulful. SPECIAL This models the crushing high‐gain sound emanated from a German‐made 100W four‐channel amp head. We chose the “Heavy” channel that delivers a startling tightness when played with a dropped‐D metal tuning. CUSTOM This is an original amp model based on a recent high‐gain amp, marked by a rich and hot mid‐range tone and extremely powerful sustain. Since active‐circuit tone controls are used on this model as well, a wide range of tonal variety can be obtained. Crank it up for the best tone. 19
