Product Description

The Egnater Tweaker 88 is sure to satisfy the most demanding tone junky. This 88-watt powerhouse delivers a hot dose of addictive tone via a bigger box, bigger tubes and a bigger sound. Bruce Egnater took everything great about the Tweaker and made it... bigger! The 13 Egnater Tweaker switches offer a seemingly endless palette of tonal variations. Add to this, an innovative dual-channel boost function and you get a quasi four channel amp that will satisfy your "jones" for tone. The boost can either be clean or a volume + gain boost for your soaring solos. Hand selected KT88 tubes allow you to revel in the lush classic cleans and shred through the intense overdrive.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (2 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "a surefire winner from eganter amplification......great features, great price, GREAT tone....the total package for my guitar ton"
Sound: wowza.....bruce and the team at egnater REALLY nailed it with this amp!! i have used it on 2 gigs so far, and i can't make it sound bad! the kt88's are smokin hot, and the tweaker switches make ANY tone a possibility! pristine clean to screaming heavy, this thing does it all.....and it gets those GREAT in between SRV-types of tones too, without the mushy bottom end! the dual channel boost function really does make this a quasi 4 channel amp...my strat and prs have never sounded better......superb note articulation, and tons of headroom and gain. plus, it's rather small and compact....sits perfectly on most 1x12 cabs for a great small venue setup....and atop a 4x12 it just rips! clarity, tone, and amazing response to playing dynamics and volume control manipulation.....a great little package from the team at egnater.....well done guys....i HIGHLY recommend checking out the tweaker 88....you WILL NOT be disappointed.....and by the way, TRY getting this great of a tone at this price point from other amps.....good luck! if you don't have 2k to drop on an orange or a boogie, the tweaker 88 is the way to go. versatility and tone to the max. i love mine!!! and no, you can;t have it!! :-)) Feature: footswitch included for channel select, fx loop, and the separate 2 channel boosts...only one drawback; no reverb....but the fx loop is superb for time-based or modulation fx. top notch construction, excellent wiring, neat chassis inside and out. kt 88 power tubes and ax 7's for the pre's...GREAT combo. Ease of Use: slight learning curve, and take the time to explore all the options that the tweaker switches provide...believe me, it's well worth the experimentation.......if you can't get yer tone on with this amp, you can't get it period! Quality: so far so good....seems rugged enough to handle the road....just don't toss it around like a sack of taters! great fit and finish, and way cool retro-style cosmetics Value: seems VERY well priced compared to amps in the same league....but ya get ALOT for the money with this amp Manufacturer Support: no probs so far...and the one question i did have fore eganter regarding this amp was answered immediately by the tech staff The Wow Factor: as stated above....nice looking amp head....nice fit and finish, nice color contrast with the black chassis and blonde tolex grille cover...and i love the "egnater" logo......makes other guitarists think u got a super pricey boutique piece! and it is not just practical in my setup....it's PARAMOUNT to my tone! Overall: i think i have finally ended my tone quest with this piece..best of the rest that i tried out.....PRS, Blackstar, Peavey 3120, beats 'em all for the price point. if lost or stolen, i would definitely replace it with another! most like; the tone and features for tweaking...least like; no reverb.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
