The Independence 35 is the first 35 watt 3 channel guitar amplifier in Matchless' history!_ In addition to the signature backlit nameplate, the three channels light up red, white, and blue.
Channel two (white) is powered by one 12AX7 and will provide ample chunk and high-gain lead._ Channel three (red) is all about fire. The master volume control is by-passable and features a cut control to thicken up and shave the highs.
The power section of the Independence starts with a 5AR4 rectifier tube and the 35 watt output is powered by two EL34s, which are cathode self biasing. A 3 position rotary switch allows for 4, 8, & 16 ohm output. The channels are switched through one footswitch.
