The "Limited Edition" GrayPlex 50

Ken Fischer said it best, “Bigger parts, equals bigger sound.”

The 50 watt L.E. Plexi style amp required 2 years of R&D.   The best tone and performance came together using approximately  90% NOS (new old stock) resistors and capacitors.   We will number these amps 1 through 30.         The LE is built in the same manner as our standard Plexi: 'point-to-point' using mil-spec wire in the thickest gauges possible, our custom power section, Teflon Tube Sockets, 20 amp switches, and sealed pots.
 

Why can we only make 30?  This PIO capacitor (seen below) was made in the USA, during the 1980's and only 30 caps are available.  Sure, we could find other caps that electronically spec out the same, but they don’t sound as good.

This special PIO cap is installed in the preamp section, making the tone ‘fat’ - a much fuller sound across the entire tonal spectrum.  This isn't hype.  I did the listening test myself, as I don't rely on other sources for definitive answers to tone.  Can one cap really make all that much difference?  Yes, indeed!  

These 1 watt and 2 watt carbon composition resistors are NOS, manufactured in the USA by Allen-Bradley. They just don’t make them like this anymore.

The same principle applies: we can find modern resistors that spec out the same, but they don’t sound as good. The  'Bloom Effect' is the prime consideration, along with the roundness in tone.  The 1 watt and 2 watt resistors will not deteriorate from the heat produced by the amp, so your sound will not fade away over many years of playing.

As in all our' Pro Series' Models, we use hand-built, precision fitted, Teflon Tube Sockets with machined, gold-plated, phosphor bronze pins for the best possible performance.

We love these tube sockets!!!  Engineered for hi-fidelity stereo equipment, the GrayTech Sound Teflon Tube Sockets provide the highest possible level of conductivity, will never crack, or deteriorate, and act as a vibration dampener against the extremes of the sound stage. These tube sockets simply allow the tubes to perform their best.

This is not a Plexi you've ever heard before. We feel this is one of the best Plexi's ever built! 

Once you hear it, the evidence will be clear!  The bass is much richer, deeper, and more percussive with great definition!  The highs sing with a harmonic quality not heard in any other Plexi.  The mids articulate to any blues player's delight.  This is a true professional, high-performance amp with components installed containing precious metals and other expensive raw materials, reflecting the actual value.  Ask yourself this one question: is it possible to buy a Maserati at the price of a Corvette?  They are both sports cars, but you can't compare them on any level.
