Milkman Sound One Watt Plus 10W 1x12 Combo
Milkman Sound · amplifier
The Milkman Sound One Watt Plus runs a pair of 6V6 tubes in parallel, delivering around 10 watts of clean power and roughly 18 watts when driven into overdrive, where the harmonic content builds. Despite the name it is not a one-watt amplifier: the Plus designation reflects the added power over the original One Watt design. That output level places it in useful territory for recording and smaller rooms, where the amp can be pushed into its own saturation at a volume that is actually workable. Milkman build by hand in San Francisco. It suits recording and small-venue players who want genuine valve breakup without stage volume.
