Fuchs Tripledrive Supreme 50 Head, "Black",
Based
on the highly successful Overdrive Supreme™ SLX, (favorably reviewed in the
February Guitar Player Magazine), the Triple Drive Supreme features three
footswitchable channels of clean, mean and scream. Available in 50,100 and 150
watt versions, the TDS features a dedicated chime filled "California Clean
Channel" with brite, deep, and rock/jazz switches, as well as mid and gain
boosts. It's second and third channels are based on our successful Overdrive
Supreme clean and mean channels. The amp is controlled by a 6-way footswitch
(included), which provides channel switching, as well as independent control of
mid and gain boosts for both channels. An extra (separate) footswitch jack for
the reverb is also available, as is the artist footswitch option.
The amp features 4, 8 and 16 ohm outputs, a full-time all-tube buffered effects
loop with series or parallel operation.
Like the Overdrive Supreme, the loop features separate send and return level
controls, a series/parallel switch and a trim control to permit line or pedal
level device interface. The loop inputs and outputs are "live" whether the
loop is terminated or not. This means the send output may be used as a line out,
and the return input may be used as a spare line level input for a keyboard,
drum machine, or other signal input, at any time. The reverb features a spacious
Accutronics long decay 6-spring reverb driven by a push-pull current drive amp
and an ultra low noise return amp using bi-fet op-amp technology. Fully
adjustable input and output levels. Like the ODS, the Tripledrive™ features
fan cooling, an aircraft grade T-6 aluminum chassis, individual tube bias
adjusts and regulated B+ and DC preamp tube filaments for lowest noise and
consistent performance despite line noise or variations.
The chassis (like all Fuchs products) is aircraft grade aluminum, our internal
construction is mixed PC board and hard wired. A detachable power cord is
standard. By using single point grounding, a regulated and buffered high voltage
preamp power supply, the amp is dead quiet and free of hum at all operating
levels.
