Overview

Simply put, the Defender V50 has tones, style and performance that will blow you away.

Kustom puts 2 EL34 power tubes at the heart of The Defender 50W combo guitar amp. The result: defined lows, rich aggressive mids and a sweet top end that cuts through the mix but is never harsh. Armed with a venerable 12" Celestion Vintage 30 speaker and a cabinet made with void-free Baltic Birch, The Defender amplifier sings and screams with unrivaled authority.

The Defender amp's 2-channel design includes a Master Volume control on each channel that lets you dial in anything from chunky, medium-gain sounds to scorching, full-on heavy tones. Furthermore, each Volume control has its own Pull Bright function that tightens the low-end and extends the hi-end: perfect for articulate high-gain tones. Bass, Middle and Treble controls provide full tone-shaping capabilities.

The Defender also provides luscious spring Reverb with its own Tone control: a classic Kustom feature from the 1960s. From spacious to cavernous, it's your choice.

And when it's time for the gig or the studio, The Defender V50 amp's speaker-emulated XLR Direct Out totally nails the amp's overall sound for mixers. A variable, footswitch-able Volume Boost that works on either channel makes solos”or those quick fills”stand out in the mix.

An optional 3-function Kustom footswitch enables users to switch channels, turn the boost on or off, and activate effects.
