The Vinny Reverb is a premium amplifier from Benson Amps made from high-end components from Mallory 150 capacitors, custom Triad power and output transformers - and so much more. The components are all point-to-point, with no circuit, eyelet or turret board. This amp is a lovely combination of the Vinny and Tall Bird reverb. Additionally, there is a unique tube-driven volume scaling circuit to bump this bad boy from 5 watts all the way to 0.25 watts.
At max power scaling, the amp roars way louder than it looks and is capable of filling up a small venue. Turn it slightly above 0 and the amp now turns into a pleasant bedroom amp that preserves the amps natural character without waking up the kids or the neighbors. Turn the scaling all the way to 0 and the amp reaches breakup, having a natural overdrive that is just inspirational. This is an amp that you surely do not want to miss.
