Frequently Asked Questions

They're a modern recreation of the classic Greenback, offering a similar mid-focused, punchy character, but with slightly improved efficiency and durability.
It's a panel system, so it's not a quick swap; you’ll need a screwdriver and it’s something you’ll likely do when setting up, not mid-gig.
It's ideal for amps with a British voicing – think Marshall, Vox, or similar – to really accentuate the Greenback’s strengths.
