INTRODUCTION
The Velocette is a no nonsense, compact, purist valve guitar amplifier. It has the
minimum controls necessary to produce a good range of sounds, from clean to
overdriven, into its single 10" speaker.
The Circuit topology has been based on traditional guitar amplifier designs, with new
ideas incorporated where beneficial.
The preamp and power stage sections are 100% valve. The valves used are two
ECC83/12AX7's and two EL84/6BQ5's.

Input
A single jack socket is provided for connection to your instrument. This is a high
impedance input which allows for perfect matching to both passive and active guitars.
Bright switch
The BRIGHT switch adds more high frequencies when selected. It works in the traditional
way, therefore as the volume control is increased the effect becomes less apparent.
Volume
This sets the overall volume level of the amplifier as well as the tone and the amount of
overdrive. From low to about halfway, depending on the output level of the guitar used,
the sound should remain reasonably clean. Increasing the control further will
progressively increase the level of distortion in the sound, obviously being a valve amp it
will respond to the player's dynamics and use of the instruments volume.
Tone
Unlike other single tone controls on other amplifiers, which act merely as a treble roll off,
this control works in a different way. In the fully anti-clockwise position the midrange is
dominant in the sound, turning the control clockwise decreases the mids while at the
same time increasing the higher frequencies. It is basically a treble and a middle control
working at the same time but inversely to each other.
