Benson Amps Monarch Reverb Plus 1 x 12-inch Tube Combo Amplifier - Blonde Tolex/Purple Grille

The Benson Amps Monarch Reverb Plus is famous for its beautifully rich clean tone, often described as euphoric. You'll be impressed by the impressive levels of harmonic distortion this 15 watt boutique amp can produce. The Monarch Reverb Plus features a handwired, all-tube signal path with terminal strips, rather than circuit, eyelet, or turret boards. Custom Soursound transformers and Mallory capacitors ensure every note resonates with remarkable tone from the tube combo amp's custom ceramic speaker. It also comes with a footswitchable Tall Bird-style reverb and a stunning dovetailed pine cabinet. Looking for tonal perfection? The Benson Amps Monarch Reverb Plus delivers with its tube-powered sound.

The pursuit of achieving the perfect tone can often seem never-ending for guitarists. However, for Christopher Benson, a self-proclaimed "relentless tinkerer," this journey led him to take matters into his own hands. With his flagship Monarch amp already in hand and experience as an amp technician in the Pacific Northwest, Benson established his namesake company in 2012. With a focus on precise craftsmanship, practical expertise, top-quality components, and a love for vintage-inspired design, the Oregon-based brand strives to create unique circuits that seamlessly transition from clean, euphoric tones to harmonically rich distortion with just a change in pick attack. Whether it's a handcrafted pedal or a meticulously wired amplifier, musicians in search of tonal perfection will find it in the heirloom-quality creations of Benson Amps.
