Electro-Harmonix put out a new solid-state amp called the ABRAMS100 that pushes 100 watts through Class D power while staying light at around 2.5 pounds. The thing costs 299 bucks and comes with a preamp section that handles three-band EQ plus a presence toggle, and they threw in digital spring reverb.
The effects loop setup lets people run their pedals after the EQ stage, and the return jack doubles as a power amp input if someone wants to skip the internal preamp completely. That means external preamp pedals or modelers can hook straight into the power section without going through the built-in tone controls first.
