Amplified Nation Overdrive Reverb 50W
Amplified Nation · amplifier
The Amplified Nation Overdrive Reverb 50W is a hand-built American boutique amplifier whose clean tones are founded in the larger Fender models of the 1960s, delivering a big, immaculate American clean with a touch more articulation and immediacy than the originals. The 50-watt version carries two 6L6GC output tubes. Its reverb goes well beyond the Fender archetype in scope, depth and dimensionality, and is one of the amp's defining features rather than an afterthought. Combined with the D-style overdrive the name refers to, it offers a large clean platform and a smooth, singing lead voice from the same amp. It suits blues, soul, country and fusion players who want vintage American clean character with a lush, deep reverb and boutique-level overdrive on tap.
