Experience the Golden Era of American Tone
The Quilter Aviator Cub is the embodiment of classic American amplifier design, offering a seamless blend of vintage warmth and modern clarity. This advanced single-channel combo amplifier is your gateway to the iconic sounds of the '60s, providing three historical treasures: '60 Tweed, '62 Blonde, and '65 Blackface. Whether you’re seeking the mid-range power of a Tweed, the throaty growl of a Blonde, or the silky highs of a Blackface, the Aviator Cub delivers it all with ease.
Designed for Performance
Crafted for speed and efficiency, the Aviator Cub is as powerful as it is lightweight, making it an ideal choice for gigging musicians and home enthusiasts alike. In collaboration with Eminence, we’ve developed a super sonic 12-inch speaker that not only captures the charm of classic low-powered speakers but also handles 50 watts of power, ensuring your tone is always full and dynamic.
Tonal Flexibility
The Aviator Cub offers unparalleled tonal flexibility, allowing you to switch between the three distinct voices with just a plug-in:
- '60 Tweed: Rich in mid-range and perfect for blues and rock.
- '62 Blonde: Bell-like cleans and a growling attack under gain.
- '65 Blackface: Scooped mid-range with velvety highs, ideal for jazz and country.
Control at Your Fingertips
The Aviator Cub is equipped with a range of controls to fine-tune your sound, including a built-in limiter and a 3-band EQ. The effects loop with adjustable reverb ensures your effects are integrated seamlessly into your signal path. For silent practice or direct recording, the headphone output and line output provide the flexibility you need without compromising on tone
Compact and Convenient
The Aviator Cub’s compact design belies its extensive feature set. It’s blissfully light at 21.5 pounds, making it a breeze to transport to gigs or sessions. Despite its size, it doesn’t sacrifice power or performance, delivering cranked-amp tones at volumes suitable for any venue.
Key Features:
- Three historical amp voices: '60 Tweed, '62 Blonde, and '65 Blackface
- 50 watts of power through a custom 12-inch Eminence speaker
- Built-in limiter, 3-band EQ, and adjustable reverb

Let customers speak for us
Another company I was going to buy from took 3 months to get the item in stock when they said 2 weeks. AME had them listed as soon as they got the shipment.
I bought this combination to go with a Fractal FM9 and couldn’t be happier. This setup actually replaced a hand wired boutique amp! And what’s best is if I don’t use the FM9 I still have an awesome and light tube like Ami that takes pedals well. The people at AME audio ordered this for me and couldn’t have been more helpful. One very happy customer here!
Amazing pedal, have wanted one for years. Was worth the wait to get it at such a good price.
The service from Matt, was friendly and informative, received the amp in North Qld saved the Gig. Thanks again Matt.
Awesome pedal. Awesome service, fast overnight delivery. What else do you want?!
Obviously it seems to have been universally well reviewed, and it IS good. To me it has a unique timbre - a fuzz like quality but somehow sweeter. It’s versatile and I think you could find a good use for it in several genres and a cut through in any mix.
The BK Butler is arguably one of the best overdrives of all time, but it's huge, mains powered, noisy and desperately needs True Bypass.
The Venus is a BK Butler which is normal sized, runs off 9V (albeit with a noteworthy draw), true bypass and a couple of fun tweaks to make it even better.
Probably the ugliest pedal Ive ever seen, but aside from that, it's a no-brainer.
Thick fuzz fused to a screamer overdrive. I don’t really like tube screamers, but really like this pedal. A very playable fuzz/overdrive for anyone who wants a grittier tone. Thanks guys for a great pedal!!
What a great sounding pedal. Just used it in my pedal chain.
It is smooth responsive and breaks up with definition. Highly recommend.
Fantastic pedal sounds like Angus young. Brilliant .
Fast deliver pleasure to deal with
It's like my old Eden WT800 and Ampeg SVT heads got together, had a bastard love-child that won the genetic lottery, then blasted that child with some sort of mad scientist shrink ray! So small it fits in my accessories bag - I don't even need to get a separate bag/rack for it - and my ageing joints love that it's barely 2 kg. The controls are so simple and intuitive, yet there is a surprising range of usable tones in this this. Sounds great with my pedal board and it works awesome with my current band. I don't regret going with the Quilter Bass Block at all!
First Klon style pedal I’ve ever owned.. does the job beautifully and saved myself about five thousand dollars.!! Delivered prompt and efficiently within a few days…. No complaints here.
Bought the Quilter Superblock US as an easy to carry alternative to the 50w valve head I usually take to gigs and jams. Matched with a 1x12 cabinet it sounds great, big sound for such a small package. Very happy with this amp.
