KOCH LITTLE GRISTLE
Koch Guitar Amplifiers, in collaboration with Greg Koch (no relation), presents the Little Gristle! This tweed-finished combo amp equipped with a 12-inch speaker allows both vintage purists and modern guitarists to relive all the magic of the late 1950s in 2023.A Class A amplifier featuring 4 controls (Gristle, Tone, More, and the "Extra" switch to dirty up the sound), the Little Gristle can be set to 4 or 12 watts. The Power Soak and speaker simulator designed by Koch enable disconnecting the actual speaker and using the amp directly into a recording console. Finally, a classic spring reverb completes the setup.
Plug your favorite guitar (or any other guitar) into the Little Gristle! Whether you dial in a clean tone or something more aggressive, you will invariably be won over by the purity and honesty of this amplifier.
Like its "tweed" era ancestors, the Little Gristle responds to your playing style in a very organic and musical way: soften your pick attack and the amp brightens... attack harder now and the amp responds instantly, not like a modern overdrive, but in a very vintage tube manner that adapts to any music style.
So the question is: what style of amp is the new Koch Little Gristle? Is it a blues amp, a rock amp, a jazz amp, or a country amp? The answer is yes, yes, yes, and yes!
