Hughes & Kettner Coreblade Guitar Amp

To meet the demands of mordern metal guitarists, Hughes & Kettner is glad to introduce Coreblade, the next evolutionary stage of programmable all-tube guitar amps.

The head delivers a stalwart 100 watts which combines brutal tone, untamed dynamics and explosive punch with amazing flexibility unequaled by any other tube amp so far and is equipped with four channels, two of them voiced to offer completely different high-gain alternatives. Beyond that, the amp sports a versatile drive channel and a clean channel with plenty of headroom. For sound refinement it features three first-class effect modules, covering a wide range of standards from authentic spring reverb to chorus and delay. As all effects are added using our unique “Inversed Parallel Modulation”, the guitar signal always stays in the analog domain.

IDB™ (Intelligent Dual Breakpoint) noise gate technology is obtained by Coreblade which is the very first amp to use that technology.This cool device simultaneously measures the gain at the input jack and after the preamp, thus being able to react perfectly in any given situation, be it as a radical tool for sound design on stage or as a delicate noise suppressor in the studio.
