Hughes & Kettner’s groundbreaking TriAmp Mark 3 all-tube guitar amplifier has been announced as a nominee for the 31st Annual NAMM Technical Excellence & Creativity Awards, in the category of Outstanding Technical Achievement: Musical Instrument Amplification & Effects.
Presented by the NAMM Foundation, the TEC Awards were created to celebrate the best in professional audio and sound production. Winners will be announced Saturday evening, January 23, 2016 in the Anaheim Hilton’s Pacific Ballroom and via a live event web stream.
Following a two-month call for entries, a panel of respected industry professionals from the audio and creative disciplines carefully evaluated each entry before selecting the TriAmp Mark 3 for nomination.
Rüdiger Forse, Senior Product Manager at Hughes & Kettner, said: “Having already won the best guitar amplifier MIPA Award this year, we’re absolutely delighted that TriAmp Mark 3 has been nominated for yet another renowned prize. It’s the best amp we’ve made so far, and it’s already changed the way players across the planet are approaching their guitar sound. For us, that’s what it’s all about: giving guitarists everywhere the opportunity to express themselves in the best way possible. Now, roll on Anaheim!”
The culmination of 30 years of tube amp expertise, the 150-watt TriAmp Mark 3’s six independent channels each represent a whole era of guitar tone, and each can be routed to three independent tube power amps. Players can also install any power tube that fits the amp’s sockets, mix and merge different power amp characters and recall 128 sound constellations via MIDI.
The NAMM TEC Awards is held live annually from the NAMM Show, the world’s leading music product industry trade event. The January 23 event begins with a reception at 6PM, followed by the awards ceremony at 7PM. Tickets will be available to purchase from September 30.
