Amazing amp no matter what it costs

By: Clinton Tyne on 27 March 2020

Too good to be true and I am still shaking my head in disbelief. I am feeling this amp would sound great ran into a 2x12 cab. For the price I paid for this amp brand new I am going to buy another. This amp is gig worthy and can be very loud but sounds great in a band situation. If I had to describe the sound of it then I suppose you could say its a cross between a Vox and Fender, almost Dr Z Carmen Ghia. I would like to try it with a Celestion 2x12 cab.

Great for cleans and high gain!

By: Tim on 24 February 2020

No one has mentioned how this amp is also a high gain monster! Great sparkling cleans with a strat and was also getting huge metal tones from my LP with blackouts. Great open-back tube amp combo that's very responsive to touch. Love it!

Awesome - Artist TweedTone 20R 20 Watt Tube(Valve)

By: Pat Walsh on 28 February 2018

I love this Amp. At $499 It is pound for pound (and Dollar for Dollar) the Best value Valve amp around. it has separate Clean and Drive channels that You can toggle(noiselessly)between using an optional footswitch (I already had one) And both are Great The Clean is sparkly Clean and the Drive has some real Grunt. I have tested it with My Jimmy Vaughan Fender Strat(Single Coils), My PRS SE277 SemiHollow Baritone Guitar(P90s) and My Artist LP59 (Humbuckers)and all the Guitars really Shine through this Amp. My other Amps are a VoxAC15HW(Alnico Blue) and Vox AD60 VTX and this Little Champ is right up there with them at a fraction of the price

TweedTone 20R

By: Stephen on 16 October 2017

Amp arrived this morning and I was immediately very impressed with the packaging. Plenty of cardboard protecting this beauty and although there are bumps and tears in the outside of the box the amp was untouched deep inside. After unpacking and a read of the one page instructions I powered it up and plugged in my Artist Butterscotch Tele (one of my favourites with new Tonepro Vintage Plus pickups fitted!!) An hour later I stopped playing and was stoked! Great amp and great fun! Before I bought this amp I wasn't sure if I needed it (not a reason I've worried about before) because I already had a Joyo 5 watt valve amp that really does all I need. As soon as I started playing though I new that I had a new favourite. Love the switchable clean/drive! Amazing possibilities of tone with heaps of grunt.

Brilliant Amp!

By: John on 26 March 2017

Super happy with this tube/valve amp combo. Sounds great with single coil or humbucker equipped guitars and can go low enough to be a practice amp for the house/bedroom, without annoying the neighbours. Build quality is excellent. This amp's value for money factor, can't be beaten, anywhere in the world, IMO. Buy with confidence. Free foot switch and leather strap intro offer was a nice touch, BTW.

TweedTone20R 20 Watt Tube Amp

By: David Baker on 25 March 2017

This is a very good amp. For the price I don't know of a better amp. I have several amps and have used many over the years. I also have the Fender SUPER-SONIC 22 COMBO (cost over $2000.00) which weighs a ton and does not perform any better. The tweed tone is also loud. The tone for the clean channel is just that and there is great tonal range from the dirty channel. The foot switch works seamlessly between channels and there is no noise when changing channel. Overall a very good tube amp at a very good price.

TweedieTone20R

By: Tony Jaggers on 24 March 2017

After 50 years of different amps from Goldentones to Fender Hot Rods via Marshall Quads, Roland and Peavey I have finally found what I want at a price I can afford. I am blown away by this little beauty....the tone is sweet with my Strat and it rings with acoustiv harmonics if I stick a Maton in it...You see the venues I play have volume issues and I never get a chance to wind out previous amps and warm those tubes...but this amp allows me to push it to the sweet spot with heaps of headroom left. Maybe if I do an electric band gig it might need to be miked but then I usually am......it looks great....and sounds delicious. Only negative was I was expecting a bit less weight than the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe but its still pretty heavy (Yes I'm old....you guessed it) but that weight translates to good quality components. for $400...I am stoked

Half the cost twice the value.

By: Colin Hailey on 9 March 2017

I have had this amp for a week now and am incredibly impressed. First thing though it's tone is not the old Tweed amp tone of the 50s, more a Vox/Marshall sound. I tried a Blues Junior 3 a few weekd ago and this amp has a similar sound, as it should with the same tube configuration, but the top panel gives this Tweedtone much greater range and capability at half the price. I did a Db test using the clean channel with channel and master volume knobs set at 5 and the tone knobs also all at 5. At a distance of three metres I got a reading of 106Db. With the volume at 3 it read 100Db so this amp should be plenty loud enough to hold it's own in most situations. Using a Tele, a Strat and an Artist Guitars Cherry58 I have been exploring the clean tones and so far have not found anything I do not like. I mostly play clean and there seems to be a ton of headroom. The drive channel I have yet to explore but from the small forays I have taken into it it should suit those who like that overdriven sound. The combination of the Cherry 58 and this amp allows me to get everything from a great rounded jazz sound to hard driven rock aka Chuck Berry with something close to a BB sound in there as well. The amp is pretty quiet even with single coil pickups and works well with both Tele and Strat. The Tweedtone worked fine with all of the pedals I have tried on it so far analogue delay, chorus, tremelo, mini wah, acoustic simulator and overdrive. The only problem with this amp is going to be settling on one particular setting as there is so much variety. The trad tweed look is great and my wife loves the retro chicken head knobs so it's a hit all round.
