THE GENZ BENZ Black P ear l 30® DESIGN The Black Pearl 30® is based on the classic Class A, EL84, 30 watt platform. In the development of this guitar amplier we referenced the most sought after vintage and “boutique” amps available for our performance and tone standard.
MODE – The Mode switch selects the level of gain for the single channel of the Black Pearl 30®. A position for the foot switch is provided so that the Boost function can be accessed through the single button foot switch that is included with each amp.
The warmth and character of output tube break-up is an essential part of the Class A “sound” and the Black Pearl 30® provides for this with its adjustable power levels, which enhance the amps performance for both lower power bedroom/studio use and higher output stage applications.
LINE OUT – This ¼” jack provides an unbalanced signal that is derived after the power amp and output transformer . This signal level is dependent upon the Preamp and Master V olume settings. This output jack can be used for sending the Black Pearl 30’s® signal to another amplier or recording device.
