This is the 500w head that was available from Ernie Ball in the Audiophile series. It has two switchable 4 band EQ channels, a tube preamp, solid state power amp, mute switch, limiter and DI. Mine is in excellent condition and includes a brand new footswitch.

Anyone that was at the EB open house got to hear one of these amps.
