Egnater Tweaker 112 Guitar Combo Amplifier (15 Watts, 1x12")

No longer available at zZounds
With a plethora of tones available through the onboard "Tweaker" selector switches and a compact chassis, the Tweaker 112 is the ideal gigging combo amp.

The Tweaker is a compact and amazingly versatile all-tube combo that offers a unique and sophisticated tone with seemingly endless tonal variations via the on-board "Tweaker" selector switches. Powered by a pair of 6V6 power tubes, the Tweaker will set the standard for gigging micro amps. The gain, EQ and master sections each have a Tweaker switch providing a wide-range of tones from the smooth and satisfying to fully over-saturated lead tones.

Are You a Tweaker?
Hidden inside the Tweaker is a vast array of tones not usually found in amps this compact. Each of the five toggle switches on the front change the character of the amp. The Tight and Bright switches shape the low and high end from soft and smooth to punchy and aggressive. The GAIN switch goes from sparkly clean to an all out high-gain assault.

The EQ switch lets you select from pristine American to classic Brit and even the elusive VX AC sound. The Classic/Modern voicing switch allows you to select either soft and smooth or hard and edgy power tube tone. It's all in there to satisfy the ultimate "Tweaker".

"The Tweaker is a really fun amp"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

A great, warm sounding tube amp, with lots of buttons and switches to keep you interested. Don't got one? GET ONE.

Sound
I like to set the amp on the clean switch and run the gain up around 2:00 to give it a little bit of grit for rhythm. I add pedals for additional overdrive/distortion. This amp takes my pedals very well. And the sounds I'm getting out of this amp - on ANY of the three EQ settings (Brit/AC/USA) - are fantastic.

Features
This amp has WAY more features than anything in its price range. The three way EQ switch between Brit-AC-USA is worth it right there. Gets you pretty close to those Marshall/Vox/Fender tones. This amp is so much more versatile than other 15 watt amps, which is what ultimately convinced me to buy it. The FX send/return loop is a big plus as well. I was going to go with a Fender Blues Junior, but decided to check out this Tweaker. I'm really glad I did because I'm having way more fun with this amp than I could have with the Blues Junior - so many more options on the Tweaker.

Ease of Use
It's an amp. It's not hard. The mini toggle switches are fun to mess with.

Quality
Seems to be built pretty solidly. The covers on each side of the handle don't like to stay on very well, but that's a minor issue. It's made in China so... yah.

Value
I got a REALLY good deal on this amp, thanks to the fine read more people at Zzounds. But even at regular retail price, this is a great value. For $75 more than the blues junior, you get A LOT more options.

Manufacturer Support
Egnater seems to be pretty quick when I send them a question. No complaints
