Similarity
citedBlended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.

Description

The Divided By 13 BRT23 is a 23-watt all-tube combo from Divided By 13, hand-wired point-to-point in the boutique Fred Taccone tradition. Available in a 1x12 cabinet configuration with power-coat finish options. The BRT model designation references the amp voice character alongside reverb and tremolo. At 23 watts it sits between the smaller 9/15W D13 models and the 37W FTR, suited to small venue gigging and recording sessions where boutique touch sensitivity and harmonic complexity are priorities.

The Laney Klipp is a 100-watt tube amplifier (with 60-watt variant available) featuring 4 EL34 output tubes and 4 preamp valves with original Partridge transformers. The amplifier provides separate volume controls for clean and overdriven channels, with the Klipp circuit featuring a valve differential amp that delivers gnarly boost when the amp reaches full volume. A distinctive treble boost switch adds versatility across musical styles. The amp can operate at 4, 8, or 16 ohms, and is renowned for delivering warm, organic tone with excellent headroom from its all-tube circuitry. The Klipp's clean channel rivals Marshall amplifiers for sweetness and musicality.
