Overview
The Hiwatt TB20/10 Combo is a versatile, gig-ready tube amplifier designed to take you from the studio to the biggest stages with professional British valve tones. This two-channel powerhouse combines the classic, high-headroom Hiwatt clean tones with a dynamic overdrive channel, all driven by a robust 20-watt EL84 power section. Complete with an FX loop, an authentic built-in spring reverb, and a custom 12-inch 100-watt Octapulse speaker, it serves as a perfect, highly articulate foundation for your pedalboard.
For added versatility, the TB20/10 Combo features power scaling technology that allows you to drop the output down to 10 watts. This half-power mode lets you push the power tubes harder to achieve pure, natural valve breakup at lower, more manageable volumes. Utilizing touch-sensitive, Class A cathode-biased tube amplification and housed in a durable birch ply cabinet, this combo provides exceptional sonic stability and authentic British tone in a portable package.
