The Soldano Astro-20 is a terrific choice for modern players searching for an all-tube amplifier with a classic control set, yet one that's loaded with the latest state-of-the-art features.Three channels of tube-fueled tone Fueled by two 6V6 power tubes and four 12AX7 preamp tubes, the Astro-20 is teeming with authentic tube tone. And no matter what sort of tone you're aiming for, this guitar amplifier head's three channels — Clean, Overdrive 1, and Overdrive 2 — have you covered. Moreover, the Astro-20 flaunts four assignable Galaxies that you can use to voice its channels. The Clean channel is automatically assigned to the Green Galaxy, yielding high-headroom cleans and slightly pushed crunch tones reminiscent of a classic American tube combo. The Astro-20's Overdrive 1 and Overdrive 2 channels can be independently assigned to the Blue (bluesy cleans to fat crunch), Purple (higher gain with a tight response), or Red (classic Soldano leads to modern high-gain) Galaxies.Straightforward front-panel controls The guitarists here at Sweetwater appreciate how easy it is to dial in the Soldano Astro-20, thanks to its classic front-panel controls. The Clean channel brandishes a Volume and Tone knob for dead-simple tone shaping, while the Overdrive 1 and Overdrive 2 channels include independent Volume and Gain knobs, along with a shared 3-band EQ. The Astro-20's master Presence control ranges from a tight, mid-focused response to an open, three-dimensional feel. You also get a 3-position Depth switch for fine-tuning the amplifier's low-frequency response, along with a 3-way Bright switch.Outstanding cab-free operation Modern guitarists often find physical cabinets unwieldy and unnecessary in many applications, both onstage and in the studio. That's why the Astro-20 includes a built-in IR loader with six onboard IR slots. You can assign a recorded IR to any channel or Galaxy independently, ensuring that you get exactly the tone and speaker response you need for your situation, be it running direct onstage, recording quietly in the studio, or using the Astro-20's headphone output for silent practice. Adding and managing your IRs is easy, courtesy of the free Soldano Editor Software, and the amplifier's novel STAR display gives you at-a-glance confirmation of which Galaxy and IR you're currently using.Soldano Astro-20 Tube Amplifier Head Features: 20W guitar amplifier head with 2 x 6V6 power tubes and 4 x 12AX7 preamp tubes Designed and voiced by the legendary Mike Soldano 3 channels: Clean, Overdrive 1, and Overdrive 2 4 assignable Galaxies: Green (high-headroom clean), Blue (bluesy cleans to fat crunch), Purple (higher gain with a tight response), and Red (classic Soldano leads to modern high-gain) Straightforward front-panel controls supply classic amplifier operation Clean channel brandishes a Volume and Tone knob for dead-simple tone shaping Overdrive 1 and Overdrive 2 channels include independent Volume and Gain knobs, along with a shared 3-band EQ Master Presence control ranges from a tight, mid-focused response to an open, 3-dimensional feel 3-position Depth switch for fine-tuning the amplifier's low-frequency response 3-way Bright switch allows you to tailor the amplifier's high-frequency response Built-in IR loader with 6 onboard IR slots enables cab-free operation Novel STAR display gives you at-a-glance confirmation of which Galaxy and IR you're currently using Headphone output for silent practice Free Soldano Editor Software makes saving, recalling, and organizing your settings presets easy 4-button MIDI footswitch saves and accesses channels, Galaxies, and onboard IRs SpecificationDetail Type Tube Number of Channels 3 Total Power 20W Preamp Tubes 4 x 12AX7 Power Tubes 2 x 6V6 EQ 3-band EQ, Tone control, 3-way bright switch, 3-way depth switch Amp Modeling 6 x Cabinet IR Models Inputs 1 x 1/4" Outputs 2 x 1/4" (4 ohms), 2 x 1/4" (8 ohms), 1 x 1/4" (16 ohms), 1 x XLR (DI out) Headphones 1 x 1/4" Effects Loop 2 x 1/4" MIDI I/O In, USB USB 1 x Type B Footswitch I/O 1 x 7-pin DIN Footswitch Included Yes, 4-button footswitch Computer Connectivity USB Software Soldano Editor Software Construction Material Purple Covering Power Source Standard IEC AC cable Height 9" Width 19" Depth 9.75" Weight 26 lbs.
