Tweed Combos
The Tweed models are based on American combos from the 1950s and early 1960s that
helped define the sounds of blues, rock, and country music. They have warm, complex,
clean sounds that progress smoothly through gentle distortion to raucous overdrive as
you increase the gain. Even after half a century, Tweeds can still sound contemporary.
Many modern boutique amplifiers are based on Tweed-style circuitry.
Model Description
Small Tweed Combo
A 1 x 12” combo that transitions smoothly from clean to crunchy, making it
a great choice for blues and rock. For extra definition, set the Treble and
Presence controls to a value around 7.
Large Tweed Combo
This 4 x 10” combo was originally intended for bassists, but it was also
used by blues and rock guitarists. It is more open and transparent-
sounding than the Small Tweed Combo, but it can deliver crunchy sounds.
