GX-10 specifications

The Crate Amplifiers GX-10 is a compact yet powerful combo amplifier designed for musicians who prioritize portability without sacrificing sound quality. This amplifier is particularly notable for its versatility, making it suitable for a variety of musical genres ranging from rock and blues to country and jazz. One of the standout features of the GX-10 is its dual-channel design. This allows users to switch between a clean channel, known for its pristine and articulate sound, and a gain channel that delivers a rich overdrive suitable for those seeking a more aggressive tone.

The GX-10 is powered by a 10-watt solid-state amplifier, providing ample volume for practice sessions, smaller gigs, or home use. It is equipped with a 10-inch speaker that contributes to its ability to reproduce a wide range of frequencies, ensuring that both low-end and high-end notes are clear and well-defined. The cabinet design is optimized for sound projection, giving it a fuller sound that belies its small size.

Adding to its versatility, the GX-10 features built-in reverb, providing a touch of ambiance to the overall sound. Musicians can easily dial in their desired level of reverb to enhance their playing experience. Additionally, the amplifier has a headphone output, allowing for silent practice, which is particularly beneficial for late-night sessions or when volume control is essential.

The control panel of the GX-10 is user-friendly, with intuitive knobs for tone settings, gain, and volume. This simplicity enables musicians of all skill levels to craft their sound quickly and effectively. The lightweight design and rugged construction ensure that the amp is durable and easy to transport, making it an ideal choice for musicians on the go.

For those interested in connectivity, the GX-10 includes an auxiliary input for jamming along with backing tracks or playlists, making it a great tool for practice and songwriting.
