Bogner Amps Helios Eclipse on RigShare
New for June 2018! Finally, here's all you need to know about the new Eclipse, that has kept everybody in the dark! Reinhold took the roots of the Helios through a sonic time machine to create a more modern version. Even though they are brothers by sharing the same power amp design, the pre amp circuit and control layout makes them essentially two different amplifiers, each with it's own purpose and valid applications. The Eclipse utilizes up to 6 gain stages which go far beyond 11. You are welcome! Enjoy! And try to keep it legal! The ECLIPSE features the same hand-wired construction with three direct accessible channels via the included foot controller. The tube buffered effects loop has been reworked so pedal effects can handle the added gain stages of channel 2 and 3. The two gain channels each have two individual 3 position switches to tailor the gain structure for a variety of tones and feels. Available as a 100 watt head with EL34 power tubes, the amp comes standard in the smaller (50W) head enclosure. HELIOS ECLIPSE FEATURES: front panel >* single input * ch1: volume control, 3 position bright switch * ch2 : gain and volume controls * pre eq. switch for plexi bright, normal and light bright * voicing switch for hot, 80's or eclipse mode * ch3 : gain and volume controls * pre eq. switch for plexi bright, normal and light bright * voicing switch for hot, 80's or eclipse + mode * eq bypass switch for raw pre - power amp voicing * common bass, middle, and treble controls back panel >* common bottom control with punch switch for low end response * common presence control * tube buffered series effects loop with return level control * full power or variac mode switch * foot switchable functions: ch1, ch2, ch3 and effects loop * foot controller included Channels 2 & 3 > three different gain structure choices each! Hot, features the "hot input of channel 2" from the original Helios. 80's mode adds compression. Eclipse mode adds two extra gain stages. Eclipse + mode adds two extra gain stages with the addition of the 80's compression! Ch3 in hot or 80's mode is closest to the original Helios, Ch2 is more open and aggressive. Small ergonomic foot controller with detachable cable, provides direct access to all channels and the effects loop!
