Tube-like tone is now available in solid-state guitar amplifiers. The Traynor DynaGain Series provides unparalleled tube-like tone from a solid-state amplifier by using unique three-stage dynamic tube-emulation circuitry.

It didn't stop there. Pushing the boundaries of modern technology, Yorkville discovered how to use dynamic-gain control in the preamp to ensure the best tube emulation possible (from an entirely solid-state circuit design). DynaGain amplifiers make the perfect guitar amplifier for the gigging and practicing musician.
