Next is an EVH LBX 5150iii ® 15W / 3.5W switchable lunchbox style head with a 5150III® 1×12 Cabinet in white tolex finish! This amp was built in Corona, California under the control of the Fender organization.
It is in very good, clean condition and looks like it’s been mostly used in one location – it even still has the warranty tag hanging off the handle!
The iconic 5150 was originally created in 1992 by Peavey as an Eddie Van Halen signature model. When that arrangement ended in 2004, EVH moved to the Fender umbrella and new versions of the amp started to appear. The 5150iii model was introduced in 2014. Dating is uncertain, and we are placing this amp’s construction around 2019.
Here’s the builder on the EVH LBX 5150iii:
“A mighty sonic force to be reckoned with, theEVH LBX 5150iii® 15W is an easy-to-carry “lunchbox” guitar amp head–but don’t let its diminutive size fool you; it’s packed to the gills with searing tone!
Armed with five ECC83S (12AX7) and two EL84 tubes for incredible high gain sound, it performs like an arena-filling champ. Two flexible channels, the famous EVH Blue “Crunch” and Red “Full Burn,” combine with the familiar low/mid/high/presence tone controls and 1/4–power switch so you can easily dial-in your own roaring Variac-less “brown” sound.
Dial up a tasty crunch for rhythm work and then when it’s time for a face-melting solo, stomp on the included footswitch to call up an intense lead tone with tons of singing sustain.
For colossal tone and serious crunch in a compact package, look no further than the EVH LBX 5150iii® 15W LBX!”
