Port City Amps Announces the Merino

10-watt tube amp with simple, but useful, volume and tone controls.

Fairview, NC (July 15, 2015) -- Port City Amplification is proud to announce our newest electric guitar amplifier, the Merino. This hand-wired, 10-watt tube amplifier recalls the tweed-style tones of the past and provides a clear and smooth platform for a wide variety of playing styles. With a very useful and simple set of volume and tone controls, your ideal sound can be achieved in seconds, allowing the player to get back to playing music. The combo comes with a WGS G12C, a speaker that works together beautifully with the Merino to give the player smooth speaker breakup at reasonable volume levels. At a strong 10 watts, this amplifier is capable of easily holding its own with a full band or keeping it controlled for small practice spaces.
