“Players often tell me, ‘I love your Dual Citizen AND I love the Citizen Gain, but in a perfect world, what I really need is the American clean from this one and the British higher-gain tones from that one… Oh, and, I need it foot-switchable!’ One of my main goals was to develop the channel-switching circuitry to provide a seamless transition from one sound to the next, and have it be executed in a very musical way with no pops, noises or hiccups. From there, I added our acclaimed Citizen-Loop which is a great sounding all-tube buffered effects loop. And finally, I felt this amplifier had to include our studio-quality analog spring reverb. Once I got everything up and running and could just play through the unit, it hit me that as an artist, I was really needing different reverb levels for the separate channels. Basically, I wanted more reverb on the clean channel and less on the gain channel. As a result, I incorporated a way to control the reverb levels for each channel independently and it then made it respond seamlessly with the channel-switching circuitry. The Citizen Gain CSR is an elegantly artful, versatile and inspiring tube guitar amplifier and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the design and performance of this model,” said Dylana Nova Scott, 3rd Power’s founder and amp designer.

Also available in a 100 Watt head version with dual foot-switchable HybridMASTER controls for the perfect volume presets for rhythm and lead solos.
