Compact Design, Mighty Volume

The 5150III 50S 6L6 Head provides massive, stage-dominating volume encased in a lightweight frame. Its two Shuguang 6L6s, replacing the traditional JJ tubes, radiate an impressive 50 watts adaptable to 16-, 8-, or 4-ohm loads. The ideal partner to EVH’s range of cabinets, this head’s volume belies its wattage, promising a sound that fills venues with ease.

Three Channels, Infinite Possibilities
