Introducing a 50-watt, all-tube guitar amp that reclaims the sound that sparked a revolution: The Defender from Kustom. Tapping into the very essence of classic tube amplifiers, The Defender gives players the essential ingredients for smokin' tones, all the way down to its 1960s-era Pine cabinet.

To launch the project, Kustom engineers first developed an exclusive new preamp circuit called Duo-Mod that utilizes traditional Volume and Master Volume controls, but that's where the similarity ends. Here's how it works: When turning the Volume control down to get cleaner tones, the Duo-Mod circuit progressively reduces gain in multiple locations throughout the preamp. The result is stunning clarity throughout the control's entire range. In medium-to-high gain ranges, Duo-Mod progressively adds gain in multiple locations throughout the preamp to produce smoking hot rock tones with punch and clarity that set it apart from the competition.

A Master Volume Bypass switch lets players entirely disable the Master from the circuit to achieve the penetrating tone and headroom of vintage, non-Master type amplifiers. For even more power amp gain, a variable Power Amp Boost control provides up to 10db of footswitchable volume.

The Defender puts classic tube amp tone and features at your fingertips, all in a visual package that looks totally "boutique." Let The Defender protect your right to great tone!
