Kustom 36 Coupe 36-Watt Guitar Tube Combo Amp - Red Feature
- RMS Wattage: 36 Watts
- Speaker: 12" KEI Turbo 12
- Cabinet: Baltic Birch
- Tube Preamp/Phase Inverter: 12AX7
- Power Tubes: 6L6 (x2)
The '36 Coupe utilizes a dual 6L6 power tube platform with a 12AX7 preamp section and is rated at 36 watts RMS. With Master Volume controls on both the Rhythm and Lead channels, it's easy to dial in the perfect amount of gain. From warm, chunky rhythm tones to high-voltage, high-sustain rock, it's all there. Each channel also provides a Pull-Bright function that, when activated, modifies the low-end response for a chunkier, British-type tone. When not pulled, the tonal response is fuller and rounder, a more American-type tone. By the way, the EQ (Bass, Middle, Treble) reflects pure, vintage Kustom specifications. Drawing on its heritage, Kustom teamed up with U.S. speaker manufacturer Eminence to produce a new driver exclusively for the Coupe Series. The result is the KEI (Kustom-Eminence Integrated) Turbo 12 speaker. With its distinctive aluminum dust cap, the Turbo 12 is a modern interpretation of a vintage speaker design that gives players a taste of the original speaker's tonal properties, which were great for cleaner tones, while successfully handling more modern, high-gain sounds as well. The '36 Coupe provides an Accutronics Reverb unit with Tone control (another vintage Kustom feature). You'll also find a Tube-Driven Effects Loop, a Baltic Birch cabinet, a speaker-emulated Line Out and a 3-function footswitch that switches channels, turns the effects on or off, and also activates a 10db overall volume boost for solos. From sparkling clean to stinging blues and roaring rock, the '36 Coupe does it all. Offering boutique amp tones at production amp prices, you owe it to yourself to test drive a Coupe.

I've got a 2005 72 2 12 coupe. Put it on consignment 4 months ago. Having serious remorse about that. After playing thru the coupe the blues junior is seriously lacking. Coupe had little play time and sat around so I consigned it but now have more play time and will get it back. I get frustrated playing because 100s of hours on 90 lb jackhammer caused nerve damage. After reading all the coupe reviews and my firsthand experience playing it I've decided may sell the bj. I guess you could say I've been spoiled by the coupe. Really makes me wonder about the rave reviews on bj. Sound is most definitely very personal so to each his own. Looking forward to experimenting with the tone potential of my gray tuck amp. 2 strats,2 teles, 1 casino and 1 hamer sunburst archtop.
