7-100
Overdrive / Amp-In-A-Box / Fuzz / Pedalboard Amplifiers
Listing Description
The Pignose 7-100 is a portable 3-watt amplifier designed for musicians seeking compact amplification. Originally released in 1973, this battery-powered practice amp operates on six AA batteries or an external 9V adapter for increased flexibility. The Pignose 7-100 amplifier features a dedicated preamp out jack, allowing integration into effects chains as a boost, overdrive, or fuzz stompbox, depending on placement of the nose knob control. The preamp output enables use with pedalboards or external amplification systems.
A common modification involves adding a switch to disconnect the internal 6-inch speaker, letting the preamp output remain active for silent operation or direct recording. The amp's cabinet measures 155mm (W) x 210mm (H) x 100mm (D), with additional size from hardware attachments.
