Take your tone straight to the source with HEAD COACH and RED BIRD, my personal favorite Tonex captures inspired by the legendary Matchless HC-30 and Phoenix amps. If you’ve been searching for rich, dynamic tones that truly feel alive under your fingers, you’ve found them. I rely on these captures wherever I go—on tour, in the studio, and at church—because they perfectly represent my sound. Now, they can be yours too.
Each capture set includes two profiles, giving you a full palette of tones:
HEAD COACH (HC-30):12AX7 and EF86 channels, delivering punchy, aggressive, and harmonically complex tones.
RED BIRD (Phoenix): 12AX7 and EF86 channels, offering lush, warm cleans and creamy overdrives that soar in any mix.
I’ve taken care to keep the processing minimal—no needless saturation, compression, or EQ—so what you hear is the authentic character of these amps, ready to drop into any mix or rig setup. FOH engineers and producers will love the flexibility, and you’ll love how easy it is to shape your signature sound.
