    V1143 Beatle Amplifier Head
    :
    Introduced in 1967, the V1143 Beatle was the final version of the 'Super Beatle" head, replacing the V14, V114, V1131 and V1142 models. The name of the amp was changed from "Super Beatle" to simply "Beatle", reportedly at the request of the Beatles themselves. The new amp retained the same three channel design and features as the earlier models. The amp was rated 120 watts RMS, 240 watts peak into a 2 ohm load.
    The V1143 used FET signal transistors in the preamp to minimize noise and hiss. New, modern switching FET transistors in the Distortion Booster and MRB circuits replaced the electro-magnetic relays used th the prior Super Beatle Models.
    The V1143 Beatle head was offered in conjunction with the V4141 speaker enclosure as the original Beatle amplifier from 1967 through 1969 and with the Beatle Power Stay from 1969 through 1971.
