The Palmer Eins Headamp Guitar Valve Amp Head is a 1-watt all-valve guitar amplifier with a professional specification and features a speaker simulated output which allows it to be connected directly to an audio interface. The Eins also features an integrated loadbox so a speaker does not need to be connected and a unique ‘HiZ output’ allowing the output to be connected directly to the input of any amplifier. This way the Eins can be power-boosted, used as a pre-amp or mounted on a pedalboard.
The Palmer Eins comes with an ECC83 preamp valve (V1) and an ECC82 (V2) power stage valve as standard. Other valve configurations are possible as follows;
1: V1:ECC83 - V2:ECC83: Quieter, distorts much faster, a little more gain, lead sound.
2: V1:ECC83 - V2:ECC81: Louder than Variation 1, quieter than the standard configuration, more gain, distorts a little more quickly.
3: V1:ECC81 - V2:ECC82: Stays clean a little longer, a little more headroom, darker distortion sound.
4: V1:ECC81 - V2:ECC83: The quietest configuration, distortion sets in a little later than with Variation 1, distortion can be controlled very precisely.
