The D-Fifty head is VHT’s take on an extremely rare and iconic boutique amplifier. It's handwired on eyelet boards, and has three 12AX7 preamps and two Ruby Tubes 6L6GC output tubes.
The D-Fifty has a single input, a 3-way Bright switch, a Mid Boost switch, a Jazz/Rock voicing switch, and its unique Treble, Middle, and Bass controls, giving players a wide range of tone shaping options — and a distinctive classic boutique tone.
The footswitchable Overdrive section has Drive and Level controls, and the Power Amp section has a Master Volume control and a Presence control.
The D-Fifty comes with a 2-button footswitch to engage the Preamp Boost and Overdrive functions. It also has a rear-panel international line voltage selector to accommodate 100V, 120V, and 230V AC lines.
VHT’s D-Series cabinets are matching companions to the best-selling D-Fifty amplifier. These powerful D-Series cabinets can bring out the best from your D-Fifty or enhance the tone of your existing rig.
