Electro-Harmonix MIG-50 50-Watt Tube Guitar Amplifier

Electro-Harmonix MIG-50 Tube Amplifier Overview
The Electro-Harmonix MIG-50 50-watt tube amplifier head is an exact reissue of the iconic Sovtek MIG-50, bringing classic tube amp tone into the modern era. Renowned for its aggressive grind and sweet harmonics, the MIG-50 is a dream for guitarists who crave vintage tube sound with modern reliability. Equipped with two channels—Normal and Bright—and an intuitive tone stack, this amplifier is perfect for musicians seeking simplicity and versatility in their tone. Whether you're gigging on stage or recording at home, the MIG-50 provides the power, warmth, and grit you need to stand out.

Dual Channels for Tone Flexibility
The MIG-50 is equipped with two distinct channels—Normal and Bright—each offering a unique sound. The Normal channel provides a punchy, balanced tone that's perfect for classic rock, blues, and clean to mildly overdriven tones. For players who need more bite, the Bright channel boosts gain and enhances the high end, giving you a sharp, focused tone that's ideal for cutting through the mix in solos and high-gain settings. Each channel has its own independent volume control, allowing you to easily switch between tones or blend them for maximum versatility.

Classic Tone Stack for Customizable Sound
Dialing in your perfect tone is made easy with the MIG-50’s shared tone stack, featuring treble, middle, bass, and presence controls. These controls allow you to sculpt your sound with precision, whether you're chasing a vintage blues sound, full-bodied rock tone, or cutting leads. The tone stack provides a wide range of tonal possibilities, enabling you to tweak your sound to suit any musical style. From mellow warmth to aggressive brightness, this amp delivers full control over how your guitar resonates through the air.

Built for Reliability with Modern Craftsmanship
The MIG-50 pays homage to the legendary Sovtek amp while benefiting from modern craftsmanship for enhanced durability and reliability. With a power section featuring dual Tung-Sol 5881 power tubes and a preamp section powered by a Mullard 12AX7 and two Tung-Sol 12AX7 tubes, this amp retains all the rich harmonic content and aggressive overdrive that made the Sovtek a favorite among musicians. Whether you're rehearsing with the band or performing live, the MIG-50 is built to last, with top-quality components that ensure consistent performance.

Speaker Outputs for Versatility
With 4-, 8-, and 16-ohm speaker outputs, the MIG-50 is compatible with practically any speaker cabinet configuration. This flexibility makes it an excellent choice for musicians who need to match their amp to different speaker setups in various live or studio environments. Whether you're using a single 12" cab or a massive stack, the MIG-50 can handle it. The versatility of the speaker outputs ensures that your tone is always clear and consistent, regardless of the setup.

Convenient Maintenance with External Bias Adjustment
Maintaining your MIG-50 tube head is made easy with the inclusion of external bias adjustment points. This feature allows you to keep your amp in top shape with minimal hassle, ensuring that the tubes are operating efficiently and delivering optimal performance. Whether you're a seasoned tube amp user or new to the world of tube maintenance, the MIG-50’s accessible design makes it easy to keep your gear running smoothly for years to come.
