The Garnet Banshee G12 is a 12-watt Canadian tube combo aimed at the student and small-venue market of the late 1960s. Its compact single-ended or small push-pull output section produced a bright, responsive tone that cleaned up well at bedroom volumes and broke up gracefully when pushed. The Banshee name evoked the era's appetite for dramatic-sounding gear.
