Rock Royalty has a Powerful New King!

The exciting new 100 Watt model brings bold authority and amazing control via Multi-Soak™ Power Attenuation delivering consistent tone and big venue horsepower in the same footprint as our award-winning TC-50™ , with only an increase of 11 pounds.

Built around 4 x EL34s, the TC-100 is designed to feature the best sonic characteristics of rock-inspired amplifiers, from the 70s up till today!

Multi-Soak™ - More Headroom on Stage, More Control at Home.

Nothing has the grunt and kick of a 100-watt head, but how useful is all that power without control? The new TC-100™ offers punch and aggressive performance, easily tamed with the flick of a switch for home or studio use. Our Multi-Soak™ Attenuator in each Channel offers five power options, from the full 100-Watts of power and headroom, incrementally descending from 100 to 50, 20, and 7 down to 3-Watts of low power clip-ability, expanding the versatility of each channel exponentially.

Exceptional Tone Control & Your Choice of EL34, 6L6 or 6V6 Power.

Looking for a single amazing do-it-all amp? The TC-100’s all-tube amplifier is powered by 4 x EL-34 Power Tubes / 6x12AX7 & 1x12AT7 Preamp Tubes. However, similar to the TC-50, our Bias Select Switch provides the option to swap the stock compliment of EL34s with the fatter, rounder sounding 6L6 or lower powered 6V6, which reduces all power settings by 50% to further shape your tone! In addition to 100 Watts of shapeable power, three channels deliver pristine Clean, aggressive Crunch, up to massive Gain. Each Channel is fitted with a voicing switch; DRIVE in Channel 1, TIGHT in Channels 2 and 3.
