The Hiwatt T40/20 Head is great for the Studio or performing on Stage. British Engineered to provide 40W (or 20W) of Classic Hiwatt Clean with an additional ‘tube screaming’ Overdrive Channel, this cathode-biased amplifier provides the guitarist with a touch-sensitive feel to the amplifier’s response.
Key Features
- Half Power, Full Overdrive – Even when you switch the power from 40w to 20w, the impact of the overdrive still remains pure even with less volume.
- Built-In Spring Reverb – Dial in crisp spring reverb to enhance the classic British tone this 2-channel amplifier contains.
- Effects Loop – Place your delays and reverb pedals within the effects loop to achieve clearer tone while using the amp.
Like the Original Hiwatt Custom Shop ‘Studio/Stage’ – this amp allows you to half your power, drive the Tubes harder, and obtain pure, natural Hiwatt overdrive with less volume. Also features an FX loop and spring reverb.
