Description
Over forty years ago the Traynor YBA-3 Custom Special introduced a new feature to the tube amp world - the Master Volume control. Equally ground-breaking are the innovations you will find in the new Custom Special 100-2. Among them are dual power ranges, dual power tube configurations, three fully-loaded footswitchable channels and a selection of equally brilliant smaller features.
Driven by four hand selected and tested EL34EH power tubes and four 12AX7A preamp tubes, the YCS100H2 is a true three-channel amplifier and it has dual personalities. Added to an impressive lineup of features is a 100-Watt/30-Watt Mode switch that offers a choice of huge concert-stage tone and power or luscious Class A richness for clubs and studios. More about that later.
Built for maximum flexibility on-stage, useful pro features include independent effects and reverb level controls on every channel, separate in-line and parallel effects loops, footswitchable solo boost, a speaker compensated XLR DI output and versatile voicing switches ensure the YCS100H2 will fit perfectly in any concert hall or studio.
True Three-Channel Architecture
The YCS100H2 uses a true three-channel architecture that offers full control of each and every channel. No shared tone stacks or pseudo "channels" here. Every channel on the YCS100H2 has individual gain and volume controls, a full three-band tone section with boost level and its own effects return and reverb settings. And every channel has additional voicing and boost switches to widen the tone pallet.
Versatile Voicing Control
Every Channel on the YCS100H2 delivers versatile voicing options with Modern, Scoop and Boost switches to tailor the tone to any playing style. The Master Section includes an overall Master Volume, Presence and Resonance Control to further tailor the tone. The Resonance Control, when used with a high quality and responsive loudspeaker enclosure, like the Celestion Vintage30 loaded Traynor YCS412A2 (Angled cabinet) or YCS412B2 (Bottom cabinet), allows the player to dial in the exact bass response from their rig that they want to hear.
Unmatched Reliability and Tone
The Traynor YCS100H2 head and matching YCS412 cabinets are made using a solid plywood cabinet construction - no MDF or particleboard. Add to that, selected EL34EH power tubes, 12AX7A preamp tubes and an Accutronics long-spring reverb are all standard issue.
Selectable Amplifier Modes
Selectable amplifier modes allow the YCS100H2 to switch between a 100-watt Class-A/B mode, ideal for the live stage, or a more manageable 30-watt Class-A mode, - perfect for creating a super saturated tone in the studio.
Professional Feature Set
Professional features like separate parallel and in-line effects with independent return levels per channel, DynaSound speaker compensated XLR direct output and a heavy-duty four-button footswitch are standard on the YCS100H2. A one-touch solo boost button (with front panel level control) delivers added flexibility on stage.
