Tweed Valve combo – with VAC and Reverb
Handbuilt by Jesse Hoff, amp Guru to the world's pro's. The J 20 is Jesse's interpretation of the late 50's Fender Tweed Deluxe, with some clever tweaks, enhancements and unique extras.....creating the "Ultimate Tweed Deluxe".
This amp is capable of almost everything tone-wise in the right hands! Set loud or quiet, this amp sings! Warm, or bright (depending on your guitar/ how you set the tone control) tactile, juicy, touch sensitive mid-rich amp, full of harmonics. Gorgeous!
Sits perfectly in a band mix on any size stage. Also great in the studio.

Lazy J 20 with reverb and VAC attenuator. Also comes with a pedal board ready foot switch, allowing remote control of the reverb functions (reverb on/off and reverb level controls)
Dual inputs & volume controls for both channels (Bright and Normal), master tone control, mid-boost (pull-up function on tone control), VAC control (labelled ground, maintaining the visual integrity of the vintage 50's Fender control panel), bass-cut switch (located on the underside of the chassis) , master reverb tone & level controls (this module is on the right hand side at the back of the amp).
The Lazy J 20 has a unique power reduction/ attenuation feature, called the VAC. This bypassable switch offers the option to reduce output volume, whilst maintaining total tonal integrity. This means the J 20 can deliver that classic tweed overdrive at sound engineer friendly volume levels. The best of both worlds!
