SOLD OUT!!!
From Benson Amps:
We wanted to hit a different price point with the Nathan Junior amp…instead of our usual Mercury transformers/Jupiter capacitors combination we found some domestically produced components that sound fantastic and fit the form factor better. For 5 watts in a tiny package, it sounds shockingly big. We think it’s the perfect grab and go recording/ small gig combo.

El Diablo’s take:
The Nathan Jr is sweet and warm at lower volumes, but it doesn’t take much for it to sing with a rich overdriven voice that is dynamic and touch sensitive. The Nathan Jr is a quieter 5 watts, but what it lacks in volume, it makes up for in tone! This little beauty truly shines under a mic. We tried everything from a Royer R121 to a Sennheiser e609, and we could not get a bad tone out of it. Wholeheartedly recommended for those of you with a home studio or home recording setup!

Benson Nathan Jr Reverb
Hands down my favorite amp. Do not be fooled by the 5 watts. Its loud and has the sweetest break up.The hype is justified. The folks at El Diablo were fantastic to deal with as well.
