Take a step back in time with thick tube overdrive.
To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Bogner Amplification released the Helios 100W tube-driven head. Truly a sonic time machine, Helios features hand-wired turret board construction with two footswitchable channels and footswitchable FX loop/boost. It also offers two instrument inputs ” Plexi & Hot ” for tonal variety. Channel 1 features volume control, 3-position bright switch, while channel 2 has knobs for gain, bass, middle, treble and volume control.
And, just in case 50W is a little too much for your needs, the Helios offers a half-power switch to get the rich, thick tube overdrive at much lower volumes.
After countless requests Reinhold Bogner revisited his vast amount of detailed notes that go back in time from three decades of archiving, modifying and designing amplifiers. Through this treasure of documents lives the aural mojo of clients such as Eddie Van Halen, Steve Stevens, Jerry Cantrell, George Lynch, Michael Landau and others.
