EVH 5150 Iconic Series 6L6 15W Valve Guitar Amp Head Ivory

5150 High-Gain Response in a Compact Ivory 15-Watt Valve Head

The EVH 5150 Iconic Series 6L6 15W Head brings the 5150 approach into a compact Ivory amplifier built around one 6L6 power valve and two ECC83S preamp valves. Its two channels cover Clean/Overdrive and Lead/Burn, with the Green channel’s Overdrive switch moving into driven rhythm and lead sounds while Burn pushes the Red channel further into saturated high-gain territory.

Both channels have independent Gain and Volume controls, with shared Low, Mid and High EQ plus global Reverb, Resonance and Presence. The included two-button footswitch also accesses the 6 dB Clean Input Stage Boost, giving you a quick level lift without returning to the front panel.

A quarter-power setting reduces available output for lower-volume sessions, while Power Amp Mute, speaker-emulated XLR output, effects loop and selectable 4, 8 or 16 ohm impedance broaden its recording and rig options.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this valve guitar amp head is for players who want the familiar 5150 gain structure and control set in a smaller format that can cover home playing, recording and live rigs.
