The PWE Particle Smasher was designed to meet the needs of recording artist and gigging musicians alike. Don’t let the single channel design fool, this little amp is extremely versatile and packs a punch. Clarity, focus and and articulation were the main focus when we designed the Particle Smasher. Our unique front panel controls allow the player to dial in a wide variety of tones from slight breakup to classic rock and beyond. Players describe the sound as the best plexi they have ever heard. We agree, and then some.
Our unique front end controls allow for very detailed fine tuning of your sound. The four position Critical Mass control sets the initial input stage gain. Further refinement can be made with the Hyperon control and the Gain control. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.
The Decelerator control allows operation from 15 to 50 watts, and with 11 positions you are sure to find the sweet spot for your music.
Our active, all tube, footswitchable series effect loop can be tailored to suit your effects units with the send and return level controls. This makes it compatible with a wide variety of effects devices.
The Particle Smasher uses an extremely high quality impedance switch to provide many years of safe, reliable operation.
