Hombre is Suhr's take on the Brownface circuit: a 1x12 combo with Normal and Bright channels, each with Volume and Tone only, two 6V6s for about 18 watts and a 5AR4 rectifier. The transformers are custom made in the USA on paper bobbins, and the component layout was reworked to keep noise down.
The tremolo modulates the power tubes' bias, and its depth moves with your playing. It sits back when the amp is pushed or you hit harder, and comes forward as the note decays. A single-button footswitch for it is in the box, and there is no standby switch to manage.
The cabinet is box-jointed pine with a floating baffle, in Vintage Palomino Nubtex with Tan/Brown Wheat grill cloth, carrying a 12" Celestion V-Type, at 33lbs all in. The Hombre Head is the same amp at 18.6lbs, with the Hombre 2x12 Cabinet as its partner. The combo is the one we would point most players to, since it is the whole amp in one light piece.
