Hiwatt 88W Custom DR88 Head

The Hiwatt 88W Custom DR88 Head (DR88H-U) provides 100W of pure valve-driven Hiwatt Headroom.

The DR88 occupies the sweetspot between crystal clean and silky overdrive.  Push the channel volume or jump the channels for dirt and saturation.

Designed for bass tones, the DR88 also excels for down-tuned guitars, baritones, or just a different flavour of KT88 based tones.

The iconic British sound trusted by musicians and engineers for generations.

Features:

• Faithfully hand-wired according to Dave Reeve's original late 60's circuit design.
• A unique, silky character set apart by the dual KT88 output valves.
• Hiwatt is the premier pedal platform prized for clarity and headroom. Presents pedals true to your sound — no effects loop required.
• Normal and Brilliant channels with independent High and Low impedance inputs for each channel. Versatile and intuitive, perfect for bringing life out of dark pickups or taming shrill high end in bright pickups.
• Link the two channels for extra punch and dynamic control of your EQ via the independent channel volumes. Unleash the ’jumped’ channel sound Hiwatt is famous for.
• All the clean headroom you could want.
• The DR88 comes fitted with a transparent PPIMV control for phase inverter distortion at lower volumes
• A truly all-purpose amplifier. Historically used by the world's most influential artists on a wide range of instruments in the studio and on stage. Ideal for amplifying bass, keys, synthesizers, guitars and other full-range and acoustic instruments.
