50 Watts of Steel String Singing Tone

If you like clean, high-fidelity tone, and a D-style amp you can actually gig with, the Vertex Effects Doctor's Special is the 'pride and joy' you're looking for! Its dynamic response and near-endless sustain are not unlike the legendary tube amp that inspired it. And like that amp, this is the perfect clean pedal platform.

A "Texas Flood" of Guitar Tone

Particular attention was paid to the sweep of the Treble, Middle & Bass EQ to ensure that each player had complete control of boosting or cutting frequencies to accentuate any guitar or pedal in front of the Amplifier. Not to mention the countless revisions of cabinetry specifically chosen to produce a more transparent tone from a 50-watt combo amp. The Amplifier has been tuned and treated like an acoustic instrument for optimal resonance and tonal purity.

Behind The Doctor's Special RX Custom Clean

It is a hand-wired tube combo amplifier loaded with four 12AX7A preamp tubes, one 12AT7 tube (reverb), and two 6L6GC power tubes. The Doctor's Special features the industry's best, "MOD" Spring Reverb (with send and return controls), a Celestion G12-65 speaker, and much more! These components have resulted in a Hi-Fi yet highly approachable and playable amplifier. Its compressed yet open personality offers players a dynamic response and clean feedback, ensuring near-endless sustain without added harmonic saturation.

Elevate Your Performance

The Doctor's Special boasts a flexible 3-band EQ, Accent control, and 3-spring reverb tank that's perfect for dialing in your sound with added character. Now available with durable black Tolex or Tobacco Suede, coupled with a diamond grille cloth.
