"Tube amps are often praised for their warmth, dynamic response, and the natural compression they provide when pushed".
It is a really simple device, almost minimalist, if it weren't for the three Switches (very useful) and the integrated Reverb, but once you try it thoroughly, you realize that nothing is missing, anything you could add would help only to unnecessarily complicate manufacturing, increase cost, and possibly compromise the tone.

Heartland Pickups - "Thick and creamy tones with a modern clarity."
The short answer is that the Hurrikan is a hybrid pickup uniquely wound with 42.5 and 43 AWG Poly wire and features a powerful Alnico 6. This pickup is designed to provide thick and creamy tones with a modern clarity. Ideal for the player who needs more punch and less of a mid-scoop without the aggressiveness of the Alnico 8.

Tu-Be or not Tube - Nasville Notes with Andrea Benz
The clunky hollow body guitars of this era with the “you add it on yourself” pickup wasn’t cutting it either, so it was no surprise that 1949 was the year that the first solid body guitar prototype was on Leo’s workbench. The Broadcaster was ready for national distribution in 1950 and after bitching around with Gretch about the name for a while, things finally settled down in 51’ The Telecaster … Boom!

The Super Guitar Hero? A hero emerges from most unlikely places..."Thalia Bellazecca".
BY Edward Schooley
I realized it as soon as I started listening to hard rock bands and felt immediately in love with how the guitar was sounding like and how many things you can do with it. It was even better since I could be able to play something and I could reproduce what I was listening to.

The Knaggs SSC Steve Stevens Signature Model is a masterpiece in Purple Burst.
BY K.T. Key
A few things in life command respect, like holding a fine instrument with delicate precision. Everyone I’ve shown the SSC to appreciates and comments on the quality, the appealing design, and the feel of the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. The precision instrument that is a Knaggs guitar feels like you’re holding a classic, but it’s new, something that you know will be around for a long time and get better with use. It has soul, warmth, and a story right out of the box. It's like a memorable, life-changing experience, leaving a mark on the timeline of your life.
