Artist TweedTone20R 20 Watt Tube Guitar Amplifier Combo
Introducing the Artist Tweedtone20R amplifier, your ticket to a vintage sound without breaking the bank! One of our all-time best-sellers, the Tweedtone20R boasts two channels—clean and overdrive—giving you ultimate control over a massive palette of tonal variations. Loaded with two EL84 power tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes - The Tweedtone20R delivers a true tweed tone when pushed into its tasteful valve break-up that our customers know and love.
Each channel comes with a dedicated volume control, plus a master volume, providing ample clean headroom for gigs and rehearsals whilst allowing you to drive the Clean channel for a warm, dynamic breakup at manageable volumes—ideal for both home practice, studio work, Whether you're playing in a small venue, or on a stage for thousands of fans, this is the perfect amp for you!
When you engage the overdrive channel, you’ll experience a creamy distortion with a rich harmonic complexity. Alternatively, keep the amp clean and send your favourite pedals through the front end—the Tweedtone 20R is a great platform for pedals! The in-built digital reverb also provides a lush blanket to your tone—keep it low and subtle, or dial it up to get that long, dreamy ambience.
With a responsive 3-band EQ at your fingertips, dialling in your sound has never been easier. The amp is equipped with a high-performance Celestion 70-80, a detailed and crisply defined 12-inch speaker with a tightly controlled low-end and punchy aggressive upper mid-range. It also features a handy footswitch jack on the back, letting you seamlessly switch between those pristine clean tones and the deliciously dirty overdrive with ease. (Footswitch sold separately)
About this Artist FS101 Latching Footswitch for Amplifiers
This is a simple latching footswitch for channel switching of your amp.
A Latching footswitch will remain on once pressed down, unlike a non-latching footswitch which will remain in the "on" status only for as long as you press the switch. This is designed for channel switching amplifiers.
Note: This is not suitable for keyboard sustain or a drum sample pedal.

Great amp for the price
My Artist amp arrived this morning! I ordered it Friday :-) That is really fast delivery for interstate. Thanks for that! Anyway it's all unboxed and plugged in now and it's exactly what I want. I amazed how good it sounds even at low volume both clean and driven. My axe of choice is a PRS SE custom, humbuckers with coil split when wanted. I did have fun finding the footswitch jack. Took 10 minutes! At least that's only a 1 off. I did however discover that next to the conveniently labelled "foot boost" footswitch jack is where the speaker plugs in to a jack labelled "out". Does this mean we can unplug the internal speaker and plugin in an 8 ohm cabinet? I asked because I don't want to try in case it voids warranty as it isn't mentioned as a "feature" anywhere in the manual, which I read cover to cover before plugging in. On the manual, there is a few words missing on page 8 point 7; "your guitar tone". Perhaps it could also be mentioned that the footswitch is a little hidden. All I need to do now is get a cover because we all know that dust is the enemy of electronics. It would be nice if Artist could offer a cover for all tubes/valve amps as an optional extra. Thanks for a great little affordable amp and I can see many years of tonal fun in front me.

Great Little Tube Amp with One Caveat
I just love this little tube amp. So loud and such a great tone. The overdrive is sufficient enough that I don't need to use a pedal! I bought it to replace my Mk 1 Boogie, which needs an overhaul and is too heavy for me to lug around in my old age.
Store OwnerLove hearing how much you’re enjoying that little tube amp! Loud, great tone, and no pedal needed. Sounds like the perfect lightweight replacement for your old Boogie.6 May 2026 -

Artist Tweedtone20R
Dealing with Artist was great. Product delivered to regional very quickly. Well packed and arrived in one piece. Sounds just great. If you are thinking of getting one, just get it. Second channel sounds good. I have it on clean that slightly overdrives when volume/gain stages are max and cleans up nicely with guitar backed to 6 or 7. Pedals sounds great. And loud. I have a room full of combos that for one reason or another dont do it for me. This is definitely my current go to.

Perfect amplifier for home and band.
I recently purchased and received the Artist TweedTone20R 20 Watt Tube guitar amp. First up I want to say how seamless the purchase and delivery was. The amp arrived on the specified day (WA) and I was very impressed with the packaging. The amp is perfect for my needs, I practise at home and jam in a fairly large soundproof shed with a band. This amp is all I need - dial down at home or crank it up in the shed and still retain the clean or growl sound in both situations. The valves provide a fantastic variety of sounds to suit my guitars (playing a Gibson Les Paul , Ibanez Destroyer and 76 Fender Mustang) and I cannot believe the value for money with the sound and build quality. The EQ, Clean and Drive channels are easy to set up and the foot pedal is perfect for switching channels. Overall I am super impressed and would like to say well done Artist, it's a beauty.
Store OwnerThank you so much for taking the time to leave such a positive review!5 June 2024 -

GET ONE! - to quote Shane Diiorio (intheblues) "th
Shane was totally on the money. Only regret is that I didn't buy it years ago. You'd have to be a real sad sack to find fault with it. Every kind of guitar I've thrown at it with every conceivable pickup combination and pickup type, it just works so beautifully. It's a sweet amp. A lot of people don't want to say "it's the best amp I've ever heard" - because it is so well priced. But, hand on heart, it IS the best amp I've ever heard. Period. A joy to play. Get one!

Artist TweedTone20
I recently came across a review of this amp I saw on ‘Intheblues’. I don’t have a lot of knowledge in regards to tube amps so a got a mate of mine, who owns a Vox AC15, to come along and check it out for me. He wasn’t coming to buy, but I reckon in 2 minutes he said, ‘I’ve got one of these’, so we both walked out with one. This amp is a good as, or even slightly better than tube amps in this category. It looks great, it is lighter and has two channels. The clean channel does everything from ultra clean to breakup and the drive channel, which has separate volume control, is very usable. My only suggestion is that it should include, or a least be able to purchase a solid footswitch that you can use with a guitar cable to switch channels. Great amp, amazing value.
Store OwnerThank you so much for your review. We appreciate it.28 September 2023 -

Tweedtone Value
Very impressive amp for the money, did a shoot out with a Princeton tonemaster and the Artist tweed 20 won hands down. Very lush clean, takes pedals well and very very good value. Highly recommend this amp for both bedroom and gigging players. Only question not answered is "does it djent", someone else can find that out.

Sweet Amp!
I have been above and beyond happy with the purchase of the TweedTone Amp!! I have been wanting to delve into the world of valve amps for a while but was looking for something affordable but packs a punch. Every review of this amp made it sound so good for the money. And it has been far more than that! I would highly recommend this amp for anyone and everyone!

Brilliant Amp for its price range
Great lightweight valve amp. I bought this to use at rehearsals, jams & small Cafe gigs so I don't have to lug my heavy fender combo around. Very happy with this unit and highly recommend for its price range.

Well worth the price
I made my decision to purchase this amp from the U-tube reviews that I had watched. Even though these reviews can make amps sound good, I can honestly say that I was very surprised at the quality of the amps sound and volume in the real. Yes, for what I want to use the amp for it is more than adequate for my needs and I recommend getting one. For value for money, this amp shines and really outperforms what one would expect for its price. I say , thank you Artist Guitars for your excellent customer service and product and Couriers Please for their amazing fast delivery time. Get one.

Wow this is great little amp, with so much grunt. The clean channel has a beautiful rich tube tone and the dirty channel has the horsepower to really crank up the rock crunch!! Very versatile and best amp I’ve owned!

Artist Tweedtone 20r
Great amp, great price , Ihave been in a market for a clean guitar amp akin to Fender blues junior or hot rod as I used to own a bassman in the past . I watched the review of this amp by Brett Kingsman and was blown away by its sonic quality!! , with a clean sound of a fender and a drive sound of a Marshall I have found my muse!! . This is a loud 20 w amp which can be played at reasonable low level without compromising the sound. It was easy to purchase and was easy to pick up at the warehouse even on public holiday, Thank you Artist guitar!!!
