For the past couple weeks i have been stalking the forums and realized i really wanted a new amp head. I am looking at the tramp, but wondering does it come in a head configuration? and can i change the Marshall channel to Vox style tone? Though not getting the vox tone is definitely not a deal breaker. Im just trying to find out because want to order one before Christmas and have a week or so to but it together. Any help would be cool 8) and appreciated :mrgreen: .

The Tramp currently only comes as a Combo. However, here's a recent thread about possible ways to build it as a head - viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2300 And if you talk nicely to Stephen, he might well be able to do a special something for you. :wink:

As far as the Vox tone stack goes, yes, you could mod one of those in. However, since the amp doesn't use EL84s, it's never really going to sound like a Vox. And the high voltages and drive levels in the amp wouldn't work too well with EL84s either. It has a dual personality Fender/Marshall vibe.

If you want a somewhat Voxy head amp, then the TC-15 is for you. It does the whole Vox and Matchless thing and more. :D

Just to add, we do accommodate a head design. The top is punched to accommodate the tubes (up to KT66 diameter) and we plug the 3 bottom ones. Mounts like a Marshall.

Would it be possible for me to request my kit for the amp building course set up in this way? I'd rather build mine as a head than as a combo.

I hadn't realised that, and I'm one of the designers of the Tramp. :oops: :lol:
