The Kustom HV30 High Voltage Tube/Hybrid 1x12 Combo amplifier has two channels, each with Gain and Master Volume controls. This Dual Master system lets players easily get natural tube overdrive and compression on the Rhythm channel as well as the Lead channel, for even more tonal options. The HV EQ consists of passive Bass, Middle and Treble controls that are the same specifications as Kustom's award-winning, all-tube Coupe amplifiers. The HV30's speaker-emulated Direct Out and variable Volume Boost controls are also borrowed from the Coupe.

An all-new 24-Bit Digital Multi-Effects System has been created exclusively for the HV. It offers 16 high fidelity, programmable effects with increased flexibility thanks to "Tap" or "Toggle" functions for each effect, letting players fine-tune their choices. For example, Delay times, Reverb tails and Tremolo speeds can all be tapped to desired settings. Alternately, the Spring Reverb effect can be toggled between three different tonal selections reminiscent of the Coupe reverb; the Rotary Speaker can be ramped between speeds; and the Octave selection can be toggled to choose Octave Up or Octave Down. In all, the new HV30 Multi-Effects system provides stunning effects with unsurpassed flexibility, but without undue complexity.

New cabinet construction methods have been developed to enhance the resonance and musicality of the HV30 amplifier. In addition to crafting the cabinet to flex in response to the sound pressure, the electronic chassis is mounted in a way that doesn't impede the ability of the cabinet to resonate properly, an often overlooked element in the production of good tone.

The powerful Kustom HV30 combines 30 watts and one 12-inch Celestion. Visually, the HV30 sports vents on the top panel and a cool, rear-panel cutaway with mesh screen to view the preamp tube inside the chassis. Other details include new die-cast Kustom logos, jet-black grill cloth, white piping and black leather handles.

The Kustom HV30 Combo uses an exclusive new preamp circuit developed by James Brown, acclaimed amplifier designer and Kustom's chief engineer. The HV Series' preamp combines a 12AX7 tube - known for its robust tonal qualities - with solid-state circuitry known for its consistency and reliability.

The Kustom HV30 is a great amp, and I really have no complaints, except that it hums terribly sometimes, and the auto wah is set at a constant fluctuation, with no way to change its speed. Other than that, its perfect. The tone is great, it can blow your door off it's hinges, and it has a great variety of preset effects. If you want a good amp, this is a great one for the price.

Awesome! finally someone makes an amp under 50 watts with a 12" speaker, and a 12ax7 preamp tube on the front end...and affordable. lots of variable gain on the crunch channel. I like the clean channel (gain) turned up to about 2 o'clock to give just a hint of breakup on the celestion speaker. I call it the malted milkshake sound! The quality of the digital effects were a nice surprise.
