Matchless SC 30 30-watt 1x12 Combo with Reverb - Green Cab/Burgandy Panel/Gold Grill

This is what changed the amp world. The C-30 was the company’s first design and still leads the lineup. Thirty conservatively rated watts from a quartet of EL-84s, through two channels—each with unique voicing and tone control layouts—produce a world of tonal choices. The true “Class A” configuration delivers rich, complex harmonics, whether played clean, mildly overdriven, or with full power tube saturation. This ensures you sound great in any situation, across all musical styles.

A long list of musician-designed features includes highly interactive tone controls and circuitries unique to each channel, a bypassable master volume, individual channel effects loops, a cut control for high-frequency shaping, high and low (30- or 15-watt) power settings, and selectable output impedance. The phase inverter switches allow the use of additional speaker cabinets or amps in-phase with the C-30.

The preamp sections are based on two 12AX7s in Channel 1 and one EF86 in Channel 2. The two 12AX7s in Channel 1 create a parallel-triode circuit with interactive bass and treble controls. The EF86 in Channel 2 consists of a high-gain pentode coupled to a six-position tone switch. The benefits include quick dialing of new tones and an easy return to your preferred settings. Additional features include a “high treble” cut control and a master volume with a bypass feature, offering flexible control of the power amp section. The power amp is fed by a 12AX7 phase inverter, which drives four EL84 power tubes. The rectifier circuit gives you the option of using a single 5AR4 for a quick attack or two 5V4s for a smoother, rounder response.

Other professional features include an effects loop, a half-power mode switch (a conservative 30 watts switching to 15 watts), an output impedance selector (4, 8, 16 ohms), and a speaker phase-reverse switch.
