2008 Burriss Royal Bluesman
Quality, Versatility and sweet tones have always been the hallmark of the Burriss Design philosophy and the Royal Bluesman is no exception. Despite it's ultra portable stature the Royal bluesman is really 2 high quality audio devices in one.
It's primary design intention is a warm and expressive tube-type guitar amp with on-board spring reverb and tremolo features unheard of on an amp of this size. By moving the power switch down to the "FX" mode the Royal Bluesman takes on a whole new identity. In the FX mode the Royal Bluesman can be unloaded from the speaker so that it can be used as a stand-alone reverb tremolo unit into another amp or mixing console. The features dont stop there, also included is a series effects loop complete with send and return level controls which allows the return to be used as a quasi 2nd channel.
Burrriss was first to the market with a handy pedal board power supply built right into the amp which supplies 9vd@1A to your pedal board via the footswitch cable. The included VIB+ footswitch has a 2.1mm power outlet jack that allows guitarists to daisy chain out of the VIB+ to power most any standard 9V effect pedal.
Other features include 4-8-16 ohm speaker taps and 50/60hz world power capable.
Some Key features-
1.) High voltage class A amplifier-Reverb with dwell and mix controls parallel with the guitar pre-amp Vibrato (optional foot pedal available).
2.) Series Loop or Parallel Return.
3.) Allows effects to be added in the loop.
4.) Allows the Royal Bluesman to act as a stand-alone reverb and vibrato to be used with other amps for those effects.
5.) Royal Bluesman may be used as a pre-amp which also allows it to be used as a boost when used with the Burriss Chaloopa Loop Pedal.
6.) Line level input parallel with the guitar channel allows you to run external music through your amp while playing along.
7.) Capable of two line level inputs using the "send" jack Volume: from bedroom to gigging level.

This single channel, Burriss Royal Bluesman also includes a custom made speaker cabinet, and soft carrying case. This custom made enclosure was made by Power sound, and features a Weber 8" Blue Pup Ceramic speaker. From Weber's website; "This is a 10" version of our P12B Blue Dog. We call it the 'Blue Pup'. It uses a 1 1/4" voice coil and the AlNiCo plug magnet (unless ordered with the Ceramic option). If you like the brit sound of the Blue Dog, we're sure you'll be impressed with the sound of the P10P. It has excellent sensitivity, overall smooth response without being HIFI-ish, and has clear, clean highs." The original cables (s) for footswitch and patch cable amp - cab are missing. It has an $125 upgrade to current 2012 specifications. Additionally, it has a 3 position power switch: Normal and No Load which includes: Reverb/Preamp, Trem/Pre, EQ/Pre. There were a few very minor scratches to the cabinet as expected from a used amplifier. View detailed photos below.
