"The Tweaker is a really fun amp"

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 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

"If sound is your issue, this all tube amp with 5 additional tweaker switches is gonna be your gig buddy!"
Verified Customer

If this amp was stolen, I would promptly get online and order another one. I can not see me buying another amplifier anytime soon. People that haven't seen me for awhile, always ask me if I have bought another amp, since I have been searching for quite some time for an amp that sounded great, but was small enough that I can carry it. This one does that!
Sound
I play with a group of older guys that mostly plays older country, and prefer a nice clean sound for playing lead. Everyone tells me this is the cleanest sounding amp they have ever heard. I love it. It has infinite adjustments so that anyone can get the sound they like. I have 7 amplifiers, and this is the one I play along with my CE24 PRS guitar. I also have an American Deluxe Telecaster, and it sound great with it as well. For those that have trouble finding that exact sound they want, this amp will fill the bill.
Features
Amazingly versatile amplifier. I wish there was a amp cover available as an accessory, but I am having one made.
Ease of Use
You can get just about any sound you want from this amp. The manual gives you numerous suggested settings for the sounds you want, which is great, because of the infinite available switches and settings.
Quality
I have owned this amp for over 6 months, and have no issues with it whatsoever, except for the lack of a fitted cover. There are places available online that make fitted and padded covers. I am having one made with a special logo.
Value
At $579, this all tube amp outperforms those that cost much more than the Egnater Tweaker combo. It is fairly lightweight for it's output and sound characteristics, which being a senior, is important for me.
Manufacturer Support
Have had no issues with the factory, except I went to their website to search for a cover. You can watch many videos of various players playing this amp from clean to medal if you want.
The Wow Factor
The unique color and appearance also get attention wherever I go. Very high quality!

"good buy"
Verified Customer

this is my first 'real' amp. this is a fantastic little amp. it has a pretty good range of tone allowing you to cover a lot of different areas. it isnt going to get in to modern metal sounds but that can be easily achieved with a pedal. and this amp takes pedals really well. this little guy gets pretty loud. it can keep up just fine with a drummer in our small practice room. great amp for the price.

"Tweaker 15 ROCKS!"
Verified Customer

As loud as any amp you'll need unless you'll be playing VERY large venues. Does everything and more you can ask an amp to do. I originally reviewed a 40 watt by mistake but this is the amp I own and wouldn't trade it for anything. Incredibly versatile. Will give you any sound you want. One of the best amps you can buy at any price. Worth every penny and outplays anything in it's price range. Could be the best amp you'll ever own.

"The Proffesional Musicians Amp"
Verified Customer

The best amp you'll buy for the money bar none. This is a do it all amp. Blows away Fenders costing twice as much and you'll have to spend several hundred dollars more to get anything that comes close to this amp. Head and Shoulders above the Blackstar and anything else even close to it's price range, Makes the Blues Jr sound like a Toy. By far the Best amp you can but in this Wattage but WOW can it ever !

"One of the BEST Amps you will EVER Own!!"
Verified Customer

This is the most versatile Best Sounding Amps I have ever owned. I have a Vox AC15C2 and it's cover is collecting dust because the Tweaker has become my main Amp. I have a lot of Experience in amps having owned, Blackstars, Blackhearts, Laney Club 12, Soldano's and a slew of Fenders and none of the can touch this for tone or versatility. If your looking for an Amp that always gives you the sweet spot STOP HERE!!! Probably for the money the BEST amp you will ever own.
