Product Description

The Spirit Tone Generator, an award-winning technology from Hughes & Kettner, is now available in a powerful & compact version. Introducing the Spirit Nano Head! The Spirit Nano Head is one of three models. The single-channel "Spirit of Vintage" clean, blues and crunch sounds deliver that authentic Hughes & Kettner tone. The Spirit of Vintage is your go-to sidekick for your living room, home studio, rehearsal space and, as a backup, on stage.
This amp’s astonishing power output belies its miniature format. Pumping out up to 50 watts at 4 ohms, it delivers plenty of juice to drive even a 4×12″ cab. Alongside Gain, Tone and Master knobs, the Nano Head offers a unique Sagging control that dials in delectable power amp saturation.
Turning the dials ever so slightly is all it takes to experience the authentic feel and responsiveness of a power amp pushed to its sweet spot – with zero latency and no compromises. Featuring a Headphones Out, a RedBox and an Aux-In for jamming along with tracks.
Key Features
- Spirit Tone Generator - The fully analogue Hughes & Kettner Spirit Tone Generator perfectly mimics the unique analogue processes found in Vacuum Tubes, providing an uncompromised natural feeling valve amp playing experience!
- Versatile Connections - The Spirit Nana heads are built for any situation thanks to their versatile connectivity. Plug the unfiltered line-out into your audio interface and use it with your favourite digital cab and microphone simulations, or plug it into the headphone out and take advantage of the built-in Red Box emulated cab sim.
- Small Box, Big Tones! - Inspired by the Hughes and Kettner Black Spirit 200, the Spirit of Vintage offers a treasure-trove of clean, blues and crunch tones!
Powerful Sound in an Ultra-Compact Format
A newly designed circuit layout centered on the unique German-made Spirit Tone Generator delivers the most sought-after metal sounds of every era. Anything goes, from classic to modern, from slicing lead sounds to bruising rhythm tone for bludgeoning riffs. And this little shredder’s delight is all analog, authentic, latency-free and supernaturally responsive to your touch.
Easy Handling, Multiple Benefits
The Gain, Tone, Master and Sagging controls provide all the tools you need to quickly and easily dial in sounds to delight novices and professionals alike.
With a RedBox integrated into the Headphones Out circuit, it’s perfect for practicing without a speaker and, with the proper interface, also a great recording tool. And your favorite software speaker simulations are going to love the pure signal provided by its Line Out.
Sagging Control
The sagging control gives players total control over power amp sagging – that is, the way the output stage behaves when pushed hard. This knob puts touch-sensitive, musical response and the tone-shaping possibilities of vintage tube amps at players’ fingertips.
A nudge of the Sagging knob dials in the legendary tones of cranked tube amps – anything goes from hair-trigger response and bone-dry tone to powerful compression and juicy, beefy sound.
