Electro-Harmonix MIG-50

The MIG-50 AMP amplifier head is a reissue of the Sovtek MIG-50, which was a bestseller for many years until production ceased in the 1990s. Years later, following widespread demand, the Electro-Harmonix brand decided to release a version based on the original, but utilizing modern technology that was not available back then.

It was in 2017 when Electro-Harmonix announced the launch of this long-awaited reissue at a major event. It caused a sensation, and for good reason.

The new Electro-Harmonix MIG-50 is the same amazing amplifier head, very true to what the MIG-50 was in the 80s, but with improvements that make a big difference. This much more updated version allows us to speak of a classic Electro-Harmonix amplifier that is much safer and comes with guarantees that you will not have any problems using it. In addition, everything has been carefully considered, and the MIG-50 AMP offers very convenient access to all its parts.

A prime example of this is the rear panel terminals, which are useful for adjusting the power.

As a reminder, unlike the original Sovtek MIG-50 amplifier model, the MIG-50 AMP redesign features two channels. The so-called Normal channel has a Fender Bassman tweed style, while the Bright channel has a Marshall JTM 45-style tone. Each channel has an independent volume control and a shared EQ for treble, mid, and bass, along with a presence control.
