(^84) Guitar Interactive Issue 66
Cornell Traveller 5
The theme behind the new Traveller 5 guitar combo from British amp maker Denis Cornell, is the ability to allow guitar players the opportunity to
own an all-valve, hand-built ‘modern classic’ at a fraction of the cost, without compromising the quality of build or tone. Sam Bell takes this little amp
for a spin.

Cornell has been making
some incredible valve
amplifiers for many years, looking through
Cornell’s website you can see the vast amount
of credentials he has for making some
supreme quality, real valve guitar amps. I first
tried Cornell amps when I started lecturing
at WaterBear Music Collage in Brighton, the
director Bruce Dickinson had a plethora of
Cornell amps, Plexi style heads, small combos,
the works, one of the amps I use in the
practice rooms with students is the very amp
that I am reviewing today. The Traveller 5.
This is a 5 Watt Valve Combo with an 8 Inch
Celestion speaker. The amp is powered by a
single ECC84 Pre Amp Valve and a EL84
Power Amp Valve. »
