REVV G20 HEAD

GUITARIST SEPTEMBER 2020

ounded in 2014 by Dan Trudeau and
Derek Eastveld and based in Winnipeg,
Canada, Revv Amplification is the go-to
backline for artists as diverse as metal god Jeff
Loomis and Nashville session star Jeff King,
along with many of Canada’s best-known rock
guitarists. Like most amp manufacturers, Revv
saw the potential of a compact ‘lunchbox’
product but wanted to take things to a new
level. Its D20 head certainly achieved that,
being the world’s first amplifier to integrate the
award-winning Two Notes Torpedo reactive
load and cabinet emulation technology.
Now, Revv has shifted its lunchbox offering
up a gear with the G20 lunchbox head, which
features its flagship Generator amp’s high-gain
‘Purple’ channel and increased tonal flexibility.
Like its stablemate D20, the G20 is compact
and portable thanks in part to an accurately
cut and folded aluminium chassis, which
helps offset the weight of two substantial
transformers. Its an understated yet smart
design finished in polished black enamel,
with conventional control knobs on a black
fascia and illuminated push-button switches.
