Product Description

Artist TweedTone20R 20 Watt Tube Guitar Amplifier Combo

The Artist Tweedtone20R amplifier provides a great vintage-voiced tone at an affordable price. The amp has 2 channels, clean and overdrive. As is typical of vintage amps the 20R has a footswitch jack on the back that allows you to switch between clean and dirty channels seamlessly. The footswitch is available at a small additional cost.

Each channel has an independent volume control, and the amp features a master volume across both channels. This adds clean headroom, and also means that you can really drive the Clean channel hard to get that nice warm breakup at levels that don't have to necessarily annoy your neighbours. Switching to the overdrive channel provides a thick, creamy overdrive that naturally lends itself to a subtle variety of harmonically rich blues and rock tones, and the extra gain on the Drive channel means you can keep the Master volume low and still get classic tube-distortion.

Playing around with different Master and Channel volumes will provide a vast array of vintage tones, and there is some serious volume on tap with 20W of tube power!

The 3-band EQ is highly responsive and allows for a vast array of tones to suit your personal preferences.

This amp is loaded with a high-performance Celestion Seventy-80 12 inch speaker for excellent all-around performance.

All you'll need.

Everything about this amp shows materials and workmanship equal to proverbial " big brands twice the price or more". I've played it with an American Strat and Thin line Tele with P90's, The tones are silky smooth with no unwanted noise. As others have said, by experimenting with the volume of the clean channel, master and guitar you can set some meaty sounds. You can do a similar thing on the drive channel. I've used the amp with a six piece band at gig volume and it cuts through with room to spare, I won't miss an opportunity to express a gripe I've long had with vintage styling amps and that's the control panel. It's really difficult to read white letters and numerals on a reflective chrome background, especially under stage lighting.

TweedTone20R exceeds expectations.

By: John on 16 August 2023

I am mostly a home studio player, rare forays into gigs. Have been for many years using an Orange MicroTerror thru an old Blues Junior cabinet, with the 12AX7 swapped out for a 12AY7 in search of a little more clean headroom. Wasn't bad but I needed a more versatile sound, so after much research settled on the TweedTone20R. Very happy with this choice, great clean channel that, as so many have said, takes pedals really well. At first I didn't get along with the onboard drive channel, but as I played more with settings I have really grown to like it - get the footswitch, for the small extra $$ it's well worth it. The very high level of quality articulation coming from the speaker immediately had the non-guitarists in the house commenting how much better it sounded compared to the same songs on the old amp. Have fitted a 12AY7 in V2 and like it even more. Particularly impressed by: the clean tones, the very effective EQ and the clear distinction between the 3 volume controls (clean channel, drive channel and master) for instance, you can turn one way down and the other way up without the effects blending too much and interfering with each other. It gets along really well with all of my guitars. Still discovering tonal capability, I do find myself wandering into the music room more often, just to fire it up for 10 mins and experiment - a good sign for a keeper purchase. Biggest downside I can find is that the knobs turn very easily, if you adjust on the fly be careful not to bump an adjacent one... Thanks to Artist Guitars, interestingly I have three of their guitars (Grungemaster, BBurst 58X 10th anniversary and a TC59) plus a Tele build with Twangler pickups amongst my collection , and they too spend a lot of time out of the rack and in my hands!

Artist tweed tone 20

By: Jack on 11 April 2023

WOW, originally saw this on Shane’s YouTube channel and I’ve gotta say this amp certainly lives up to the hype! It arrived in 4 business days and arrived in perfect condition. I really cannot fault this amp, it handles pedals very well, super easy to dial in a good tone. I only really wanted this as a clean platform for my pedals but I can seriously see myself using the drive channel a lot as it’s a very usable sound. Reverb is excellent, and the overall build quality is very good! I cannot recommend these amps highly enough! 10/10 from me
