Description
The Retro 50 and AD 50 amplifiers were the first to feature ‘Custom Shop’ on the front panel.
Ade Emsley – Technical Director
During 2001 – which was really the year of the AD140 – a number of people approached us asking if we could produce Custom Shop 30 watt and 50 watt amplifiers. We developed the Custom Shop Retro 50. This sounded very much like the original Pics Only. It had a concertina phase splitter, but it still had the EQ after the volume, which made it stable and very reliable, switching from 30 watts Class A, to 50 watts Class AB. We designed it to sound like a combination of all the best Pics Only amps, yet in a 50 watt package. The difference between Class A and Class AB is that the Class A tends to run hotter but gives richer tones, and is a more pleasurable play in guitar terms – less harsh and a bit more forgiving on the ear. Class AB has more clean headroom, and is better for clean sounds.
