The Cornell-Romany-Plus Combo
is designed primarily for studio and home use. However, there is a lot
more to it than that. At a maximum of 10 watts, you won't be using it at
your local gig, but the Cornell-Romany Plus is not small on tone. It will
become your friend, a tool to create or develop your personal sound and
playing style.
The
Cornell-Romany has a natural distortion sound that was popular in America
back at the beginning of guitar amplifier design. Amplifier-makers at that
time sold it to the Blues heroes whose technique has since become the
classic distortion sound. The output is produced from a single valve,
known as "single-ended class A output". The lack of
cross-over distortion when the valve clips, results in the Cornell-Romany
tone.
The Cornell-Romany Plus
amplifier employs this classic
output design by not having gain or master volume controls, only the
output valve is involved in the distortion sound. The drawback with this
design is that the distortion sound is only achieved at maximum output, and
at 10 watts the sound is enough to penetrate walls and upset neighbours.
To overcome this we have a unique power reduction design that reduces the
output over 4 levels; the maximum of 10 watts is reduced to around
0.05 watts. These 4 settings will allow you to play from a
considerably distorted sound to a clean 10 watts, that is more than enough
head room to accompany an acoustic piano, for example.
