If you want big tone without lugging a road amp, check this out: the 5150 III in its more compact 50-watt 6L6 form. It’s a head that delivers serious power in a smaller chassis — think “arena attitude in a doorway-friendly size.” This one is in beautiful condition: tubes are strong, vinyl is immaculate, and everything works as it should.
This version retains all the prestige and tone architecture of the full 100W unit, but with more manageability. It’s got selectable impedance (4/8/16 Ω), dual parallel speaker outs, effects loop, line out, and a full three-channel layout (clean, crunch, lead). The tube complement is seven 12AX7s in the preamp stage plus the pair of solid 6L6s in the power section—exactly what you want if you want headroom and clarity.
You’ll get:
-
Full 5150 III three-channel flexibility
-
Controls for shaping tone: shared EQ on Ch 1 & 2, full independent EQ on Ch 3
-
Global Presence and Resonance (lets you tailor how aggressive or smooth it feels)
-
That unmistakable EVH striped grille, classic styling
-
Strong tube life, clean cosmetics, top shape
This amp sounds huge. It can crunch, roar, or sing depending on how you dial it. Whether you want butcher-knife distortion or articulate cleans with bite, this head is a beast waiting to be tamed.
