CCC 9/15

Combining the versatility of our CJ 11 preamp with the dual 6V6/EL84 power section of the JRT 9/15, the CCC 9/15 delivers an impressive range of classic tones inspired by low wattage U.S. and UK designs pioneered in 1950s and 60s. Inspired by the iconic 1950s-era 1×12 tweed combo, which features a single tone control limited to treble frequencies, the CCC 9/15 preamp takes it further with both treble and bass filters, along with a master volume and boost circuit. The added bass control allows for fine-tuning of lower frequencies, enhancing clarity and increasing headroom when the amp is driven into saturation, which is crucial for lower-wattage circuits used at live performance levels. The inclusion of a master volume and boost enables the CCC 9/15 to deliver a wide range of drive tones, from a subtle edge-of-breakup to moderate overdrive and full saturation, all at manageable volumes while retaining touch sensitivity and sonic integrity. A standout aspect of the CCC 9/15 is its capacity to toggle between 9 watts, powered by a pair of 6V6 tubes in Class A, producing the smooth, full-bodied tones typical of classic 1950s American amplifiers, and 15 watts with a duo of EL84 tubes in Class AB, offering a crisp, shimmering high-end and intricate, musical distortion reminiscent of 1960s British models. The tonal qualities and dynamic response, combined with the adaptable volume levels of these two output modes, make the CCC 9/15 exceptionally versatile for various performance and studio settings.
