The amp started out as a YVM-1 Voicemaster, which are PA amplifiers original designed for microphone amplification. However, as is the case with many Traynor amps they can become a superb platform for modding. This amp has been expanded to include the following features:

  • 2-Channels: Clean & Mean
  • Mean Channel has the white labeled controls - Drive, Voice, Cut (High), Level
  • Clean Channel has the stock controls - Volume, Bass, Treble, Presence
  • FX Loop added
  • Swapped Output Transformer with 16/8/4/2 ohm taps
Other details about the mods are unknown, but it looks to be well done, and is surprisingly quiet. While it may not be a looker, this is actually a fantastic sounding amp. Gain is on the low to medium side, and both channels sound good driven. They don't call them Canadian Marshalls for nothing!
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
