Hiwatt T40/20 Switchable 40W/20W Guitar Amp Head w/ True-Spring Reverb
Manufacturer's Description
Hiwatt Tube Series Amplifiers are British Engineered to provide a Classic Hiwatt Clean + Overdrive Channels at a great price – based on the success of Hiwatt’s power-switching ‘Studio/Stage’ Amplifier. The Hi-Quality Premium Speaker and Birch Ply Cabinet have been both ‘matched’ and ‘voiced’ for this Amp and together provide a winning combination.
This ‘Cathode Biased’ (aka Class A) amp provides the Guitarist with a ‘touch sensitive’ feel to the amps response. Half your power, to drive the Tubes harder, to obtain pure, natural Hiwatt Overdrive with less volume. On the 3 band EQ there is a push/pull ‘full tone shift’ feature. This amp has Dual Gain controls for the Normal and Overdrive channels, Real Spring Reverb and a Footswitch for turning off and on the Reverb and switching channels. Perfect as a pedal platform.
The Hiwatt T40/20 is versatile, durable, fun to play, reasonably priced and most importantly... Sounds great.
