Product Detail
The Traynor DarkHorse DH15H all-tube guitar amp head is set to become an instant classic. It packs 15 watts of rich all-tube tone in a compact head and cabinet combo, perfect for traveling musicians. With simple Gain, Bass, Treble, and Master controls, you can easily get the ideal amp sound on stage or in the studio. The Tonestack switch offers Brit or USA voicings, or the 'Pure' mode that bypasses the tone stack, giving a mid and overall gain boost for a direct signal path. There are selectable output power switches between a 15-watt pentode stage with higher headroom and a 2-watt triode stage for more drive. The 8 and 16-ohm outputs let it drive various cabinet configurations.

Using your Traynor DarkHorse DH15H is a breeze. First, connect your guitar to the 1/4 - inch phono input. Then, plug the amp into a power source and turn on the standby switch. Wait a bit for the tubes to warm up, then flip the output tube LED switch. Use the Gain, Bass, Treble, and Master controls to adjust the sound to your liking. You can also use the Tonestack switch to choose between Brit, USA, or Pure voicings. For lower volume and more drive, select the 2 - watt mode.
When using it, make sure the amp is on a stable surface. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures or humidity. After use, turn off the power switch and unplug it from the power source.
For maintenance, keep the amp clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it down. If the tubes need replacement, it's best to have a professional do it. Regularly check the connections to make sure they're secure. With proper use and care, your Traynor DarkHorse DH15H will serve you well for a long time.
