Tech 21 Introduces the Bronzewood 60(TM) Acoustic
Amp
May 18, 1999
Tech 21 has added a 60-watt acoustic combo amp
with reverb to their amplifier line. The Bronzewood 60TM offers an instrument
channel and a mic channel with XLR input and phantom power. Compact and lightweight
(less than 40 lbs.), the Bronzewood 60 is loaded with exceptionally extensive
features.
Controls
for the Guitar channel include compressor, notch filter to eliminate feedback,
phase switch, pre-amp gain, active tone controls, mid shift, and a unique Blend
control to mix in the desired amount of SansAmp(TM) Tube/Microphone Emulation
circuitry. This proprietary technology removes the harsh harmonics associated
with piezo pickups and delivers a natural warmth and presence. The Mic channel
has 3-band active tone controls, an individual level control, gain, and a separate
reverb mix control to adjust the ratio of the full-length, 3-spring Accutronics®
reverb between the two channels. Tech 21s special design 12 speaker
and high-frequency horn are housed in a handsome cabinet covered in brown crocodile
embossed vinyl complemented by a custom grill covering and decorative piping detail.
For studio and live applications, the SansAmp circuitry enables the Bronzewood
60 to be run direct to the mixer of a recorder or PA system via an XLR Direct
Output. Other features include a Headphone Output (that doubles as a 1/4
direct out should an XLR input not be available on your recorder), an effects
loop, and a courtesy power outlet so you can neatly secure your effects in the
back of the amp. To remotely activate the reverb function, an optional footswitch
is available. Also optionally available is a matching powered 1x12, 60-watt, open-back
extension cabinet.
The U.S. suggested retail prices are $645 for the Bronzewood 60 and $395 for
the extension cabinet.
