1. The TUBEJUICE MAX15, MAX50 & MAX100 are Guitar Tube Amp Attenuators that will easily and economically allow you to get Saturated Power Tube Tone from your guitar amp at levels that won't make your ears bleed. I love moderate levels of Power Tube gain and that's how I built the TUBEJUICE. If you are wanting the MAX amount of gain you can possibly get from your amp, like super distorted high gain tones with your amp set on 11, please buy a TUBEJUICE that is for the next amp size up. I built the TUBEJUICE for guitar players that want low to moderately high levels of gain. If you turn your amp up enough to get power tube distortion without an attenuator, it would be TOO LOUD.. All tube amp users should have an attenuator to take your tone to the next level. The TUBEJUICE is available in MAX15, MAX50 & MAX100, for tube amps of 15 Watts, 50 Watts and 100 Watts. The tight ballsy tone it allows you to get by pushing the power tubes is THE tube tone that will make the hair stand up on the back of your neck and this while keeping the decibel level at a manageable range so you don't break all the windows in the house. The more you attenuate, or resist the signal from your amp, the more heat it produces so it's important to choose an attenuator that is appropriate for your needs. Maxed out gain, expecially POST GAIN will produce alot of heat if you are using a high amount of attenuation. But, if you're not attenuating your amp signal much and are wanting a moderate amount of gain, the heat, if any will be minimal. The controls couldn't be more simple. Use the main knob on the TUBEJUICE for the overall level of your amp and two 1/4 inch jacks for the speaker IN and speaker OUT. The TUBEJUICE has a LINE OUT, an Impedance Selector Switch, a JUICE/BYPASS switch, and soon a BOOST Switch that will bump up the Treble to help with any tone loss that may occur from high attenuation. If you need the speaker cables to connect it to your amp you can make or get them easily on ebay or at your local music or electronics store. I also put a handy hole in the back so it can be hung on the side of your amp too. I just unscrewed a corner guard screw a bit and hung it there. Perfect. There are vent holes in the top and bottom so it can continually cool. Hanging it works best to keep the unit cool so don't put it in an enclosed space. You won't find such a powerful and economical attenuator anywhere as the TUBEJUICE.

2. The TUBEJUICE will let you get some very tasty gain from your clean channel as well as your gain channel. Tones that you could have never gotten without an attenuator. Turn the level on the TUBEJUICE down low and set your channel Post Gain level up high and enjoy the new tones. The Post Gain (Power Tubes) is where the power tube distortion lives, turn it up to get a very tight, ballsy distortion that can't be beat. Click the SOUNDFILES link to hear the TUBEJUICE in action using low to moderately high levels of gain.

3. The TUBEJUICE Attenuator, can be used with any guitar tube amplifier of up to 50 or 100 watts or less with combo amps as well as a head and speaker cabs. If you like your tube amp you'll love it when you plug in the TUBEJUICE! Absolutely nothing beats power tube tone. You'll definitely have people asking you how the hell you get such great tone.
