Variants and Options
A15Mk2 Deluxe
The A15Mk2 is also available as Deluxe version, including a ready to use black steel drilled and printed chassis with assembly threads. This version also includes metal shafted variable resistors (pots). All photos on this page show the Deluxe version.
Footswitch option FS1Mk1
With this addon you can switch two functions by foot, this is typically channel and boost with the A15Mk2, but you can also remotely switch something else if wanted.
A15Mk2 versus A15Mk1
The second version of the A15 deviates from the first version by a small change of the first channel tone control and a layout change to minimize crosstalk at high-gain levels.
