A perfect "at home" or studio amp, but still has enough juice under the hood to take it to club gigs. The Tremolo circuit will literally knock you off your feet, capable of some of those classic early rock instrumental tones with shimmering, beautifully-rounded swells. Most people think of 5-watt amps as being grit machines, but at lower volume settings you get crystalline, shiny tones with plenty of headroom. The 12" speaker and larger enclosure provide extra dimension to this little guy's already stunning and versatile tone.
Swart Amplifier Co was founded on a simple principle:
Everything revolves around great Tone.
And where there is great tone, there are VALVES; no solid state devices need apply. Rectification is by valve, not harsh sounding solid-state diodes.
Finally, there is something that equals the heyday of valve amplifiers, with quality point to point wired circuits using excellent iron and parts that don't leech the harmonics from the stream.
Swart Amplifier Co brings harmonic richness and warmth, rendering solid state amplification sterile. Employing custom modifications of classic circuits featuring point to point wiring, Class A bias, tube rectification, and PP & Single-Ended output, we aim to bring great tone to the forefront again. Swart Amplifiers: Hand built to last a lifetime - Modern Day Classics.
