Magnezium
Magnatone Super 59 M80-inspired dual-channel tube preamp with 12AX7s at 250VDC—switchable output modes.
The Magnezium recreates the legendary Magnatone Super 59 M80 amplifier using dual 12AX7 tubes running at full 250VDC, all converted from standard 12VDC input. Dual channels provide independent gain structures inspired by the Magnatone's distinctive voice: clear, dynamic clean tones and rich, harmonic overdrive.
All-tube signal path maintains authentic vintage character, while a side-mounted toggle switch offers two output modes: higher output for direct connection to power amps or cabinet simulation, lower output with treble cut for connection to amplifier front ends. True bypass switching disengages the preamp when not in use. The dual-output mode makes the Magnezium versatile for different integration scenarios.
12VDC external power steps up internally to 250VDC for proper tube operation. Handmade in Canada, targeting players seeking Magnatone-style tones—favored by blues and rockabilly players for their clear, dynamic response and distinctive harmonic character. Suitable for vintage-inspired tones without the fragility and maintenance demands of 1950s amplifiers.
