Continuing the all tube tradition, Masotti presents the 2 channel Afterburner with its incredible versatility and unrivalled tone. The Clean channel is the same as the punchy M1 and the Overdrive channel is the same as the now infamous X100M with its massive presence, all in a single 2 channel amp. This is truly a 2 channel beast that covers all tones from a sparkling clear clean with amazing dynamics and brings out the best of pedalboards, to a powerful crunch all the way through impressive distortion that is dripping wet with rich harmonics while maintaining immense body and definition with a knockout punch. Finally the best of the M1 and the X100M in a single amp that offers the full range of the incredible tones available from Masotti.
