Product Description

Building on the overwhelming success of our acclaimed Dark Terror and Dual Dark amps, we’ve distilled thousands of customer demands into a pint-sized valve hybrid head – the Micro Dark. The Micro Dark shares the same intuitive Shape control combined with a new ECC83 (12AX7)-driven high gain preamp section, yielding screaming dirty tones that make a mockery of its miniature frame. Like its bigger brothers, however, the Micro Dark’s smoky black chassis and simple layout actually disguise its cunning versatility. Of course, there’s plenty of gain on tap to satisfy even the most discerning devotee of distortion, but this little beast is by no means just a one-trick Metal monster! Beneath the menacing exterior you’ll find a rich and diverse palette of classy and confident tones. From squeaky clean to brash and mean – whatever your style – you’re gonna love this thing. Other features include a transparent, fully-buffered effects loop and a headphone output with our popular CabSim circuitry. With the optional PPC108 cabinet, the Micro is an ideal practice rig… Plug into something a little larger, though, and you might find your new secret weapon in the studio!

Perfect low cost beginner or expert’s amp

Perfect low cost beginner or expert’s amp
My son bought this amp for himself after much research. After listening to the range of tones he was able to get for months bringing it to my house, I decided I needed to get one myself to replace a noisy $99 tweed amp clone.Here is my list of why this is a must buy if you are a beginner, or maybe your first “real” amp:1. Three knobs. Seriously. It’s kinda perfect. Each does something different, and you pretty much can dial in almost any tone you want from clean to dirty. If you only play metal, maybe you want something else, but otherwise just add a decent pedal and you can do 80s/90s metal and not be ashamed. Cover music, songwriting, jamming, etc this can help you through all of it.2. It’s tiny, lightweight and has a handle. It’s so easy to take anywhere. Get the case for it and it’s always protected in travel.3. It’s built very well. So so so much nicer build than the $99 tweed amp head clone, and worth every cent more.4. The response mimics and much larger amp. Play lightly and it’s beautifully clean. Play with attitude and it will growl with you. Quite a lot to master for a beginner, but for those really learning to play, you normally don’t have access to an amp like this in my experience at this price point.5. It’s sounds great. Period.For experts and pros, this has some unexpected pluses:1. Headphone out is perfect to go into FOH or PA. Seriously. Just plug a 1/4” mono into the headphone jack and have your mixer handle the rest. I plugged headphone in into a DI then sent to mixer, perfect. I plugged in headphone to a Mini RockCrusher, sent to my mixer and parallel out to the little 8” orange cab (also totally worth it), perfect. No micing to get a very very good live sound.2. An effect loop! Seriously. If you want any improvement or embellishment to your sound, find a pedal or three, or anything else and feed it in. That’s it. It’s clean.Yes there are plenty of better, more powerful, and more flexible amps out there. But this orange hit the magic sweet spot for me for the price and my use. Underpromised and over delivered. Worth every cent!
