EVH 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head Ivory

EVH 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head Ivory

The EVH 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head Ivory is perfect for gigging an recording guitarists that crave powerful EVH tube tone, at an affordable price. Powered by four 6L6 power tubes and voiced by a complex, multi-stage hybrid preamp section anchored by a duet of ECC83 tubes, the 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head provides all the fire power the modern guitarist needs in a simple to use format.

Two channels, each with an extra voicing switch, make this one versatile head. The Green channel's Overdrive button switches effortlessly from lush clean tones to gained up overdriven tones, while the Red Channel's Burn button dials in fiery crunch perfect for blistering leads. Each channel features separate gain and volume controls, perfect for level-matching when switching between clean and high gain tones. The Red Channel's noise gate suppresses hiss while maintaining clear articulation for staccato riffs. A Boost switch adds 10dB of footswitchable volume to let you cut through the mix when it's time to shred. The control panel also includes shared EQ (Low, Mid and High), global resonance and presence knobs to adjust the low- and high-end aspects of your tone, and a global reverb control to add the perfect amount of bounce and decay for any room.

Other features include a two-button footswitch, effects loop, dual parallel speaker output jacks, ¼ power switch to reduce wattage, and a speaker-emulated DI XLR with power amp mute for accurate all-tube EVH tone for recording direct or using through any PA system.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the EVH 5150 Iconic Series 80W Head Ivory is a great option for any guitarist looking for feature-laden EVH tone at an affordable price. These heads pair perfectly with the EVH 5150 Iconic Series 4x12 cabs, with custom-voiced Celestion speakers.
