From spanky-clean rhythm parts to full-shred leads, the Rivera Venus 5 handles it all with complete composure. With the clean channel poised on the brink of breakup, you'll also find a massive range of crunch in between - all controllable with your guitar's volume pot. This is classic tube tone, Rivera-style! And weighing in at only 57 lbs., the compact Venus 5 is your ultimate tone buddy, whether you're recording in your studio or belting it out onstage.
The versatility to ace any gig or sessionThe Venus 5 is a versatile amp. Rivera's vintage/modern switch on the rear panel lets you cut power down to 15 watts while enhancing your even-order harmonics, making it ideal for practice, low-volume recording, and performing in smaller venus. Two speaker jacks plus an impedance selector switch give you the versatility of connecting to the internal and external speakers. A line-out jack lets you slave another amp or recording directly from the line-level power amp signal. You also get an active effects loop with send and return level controls for easy patching and signal matching to any external signal-processing chain.
Sweeten your tone with classic spring reverbFew people understand spring reverb the way that the engineers at Accutronics do, and it's one of their remarkable reverb units that lets you dial in lush and dimensional guitar tone right inside your Rivera Venus 5 combo amp. This 3-spring reverb features a long and remarkably vibrant decay, and when you kick up the Venus 5's presence control, you can easily create bright and brilliant clean tones with the perfect touch of shimmer. The 3-function FS-7R footswitch is included.
