The Hughes and Kettner Duotone Head is the supercharged "British" classic. 100 watts of all-tube power.
Duotone delivers to-die-for tone, but takes the one-sound-wonder of vintage amps a significant step further. When Hughes and Kettner set out to design this modern classic, they collaborated with an amp-tuning specialist to embrace the pros’ most frequently asked for modifications. The top four demands are more tone, more attack, a tube-driven effects loop and a clean channel that merits its name!
So they went on to build the first off-the-rack amp to offer all of these special tweaks as standard features: You get supercharged classic rock tones thick enough to slice with fat, dynamic overdrive, a top-drawer clean channel, a tube driven effects loop, and even a dual master. And with a 100-watt Duotone head and a Celestion Vintage 30 equipped 50-watt combo on offer, the choice is all yours. Duotone – all of the real sounds, none of the limitations!
