Superdrive 18 Series II Guitar Valve Amp Head description:
The Budda Superdrive Series II amplifier line is hand crafted in the US and is the new voice of Rock! We are fortunate to have shaped the sound of many of todays' platinum rock records. From artists like the Foo Fighters, Buckcherry, Good Charlotte, Stone Sour, Robert Randolph, The Exies, and Matchbox 20, the Superdrive delivers a unique tone that is powerful and bold.
You want to hear the notes ring out when you hit that big power cord, and a searing overdrive that will sustain as long as you keep your finger glued to the fretboard. That is the magic of the Superdrive, it does all of that, as well as offer you a distinctive tone that you can call your own.
The powerful punch of the Superdrive Series is apparent as soon as you hit your first note and is the first step in creating your signature sound. The Budda pure cathode hot bias circuit is super dialed for hi gain note definition. The Superdrive Series II is the amplifier choice for all types of guitar pickups and effects.
The Budda Superdrive 18 Series II Guitar Valve Amp Head is our low wattage powerhouse. Designed for the clubs and studio, this lightweight two-channel EL-84 driven amp offers sparkling rhythm complexity with super sensitive hi gain articulation. The juice behind the amp lies in the 18 watt el84 power section. There's nothing more organic sounding then the tone of el84 power tubes being pushed to their limits. The sag of the circuit is lush and creamy and the sustain is forever at your fingertip. The Superdrive 18 is voiced for modern vintage styles of music and as Guitar Player Magazine described it, "with tones that fell somewhere between Bluesbreaker-era Clapton and more aggressive EVH tones, I don't need to tell you how bad ass that is!"
