About this amp

Space Tone Reverb Tweed takes the 5-watt, single-ended, zero-feedback 6V6 circuit and pairs it with a 12” speaker and a bigger cabinet, plus a hot/clean switch and Swart’s footswitchable tube reverb. It’s hand-wired point to point with tube rectification and a lacquered tweed, finger-jointed pine cabinet.
