Matchless / Avenger 30 Reverb / 2007 / White / Amp
In very good condition including flightcase
The Avenger 30 demonstrates our new British meets American sound, melding the two great vintage tones we recognize as the standard for excellence! The Avenger preamp incorporates Volume, Bass, Midrange, and Treble controls and uses two 12AX7/ECC83 preamp tubes. The power section has a 30 watt iron core transformer with a 5AR4 rectifier tube. Two 5V4Gs are easily substituted for a rolled off attack allowing more sag. The Avenger 30 is powered by four EL84/6BQ5 power tubes with a HI/LO power option. A true by-passable Master Volume control is coupled with a Bright control for setting the overall levels. The output is 30 watts cathode self biasing with a 4, 8, and 16 ohm impedance switch. Otherwise identical to the Avenger, the Avenger Reverb has two added 12AX7/ECC83s for the send and return circuit and an Accutronics Reverb Pan. The Reverb is a deep and lush compliment to the vintage tone of the Avenger.

Brief history ( A true one as well )
Shortly after opening, MUG got off to a flying start. The first customer was Jimmy Page, the guitarist of Led Zeppelin. He asked for Ernie Ball electric guitar strings and Bruce answered.
-- The only thing is....eh ..--- " We ordered them a while back, but they haven't arrived yet!"
Luckily enough, Jimmy went away satisfied with his Fender Superbullets or Sound City Strings.
However, as soon as Jimmy had left the shop, Bruce got on the phone to his trade friends in England to find out more about Ernie Ball.
It didn't take long before MUG was the agent for Ernie Ball in Sweden.
This is how Bruce started his "crusade" through Sweden and how MUG got off to a flying start.
The year was 1973. It's now 2015 and Jimmy Page probably won't ever be coming back, but we at MUG see a Jimmy Page in all our customers. This is the way it's always been.
Welcome to our website and our shop as well.
