20 watts, all-tube power scaling, and Spaces reverb. More is better.

Inspired by iconic British and American combo amps from the 50s and 60s, the Hummingbird 20 is a bomb-proof workhorse in an neo-classic form. It combines the most desirable attributes of tweed, black-panel, and British sounds in versatile lightweight combo. Built to the highest standard, every point on the volume dial is a distinct tonal neighborhood. Crisp cleans transition seamlessly to breakup and distortion with amazing touch-sensitivity that balances a solid transient attack with singing note-bloom. The unified design of cabinet, circuit, and speaker preserves low-end focus at any volume while mid and high harmonics increase with gain. 

Output Power Control

Topping out at 20 watts, the Hummingbird features 6 levels of output power that allow you to seamlessly adapt to any environment. Using a large tube triode to regulate voltage we are able to vary the output power in a way that preserves note-bloom, harmonics and  power-tube saturation at any volume level. The first 4 power settings (20w / 18w / 15w / 10w) allow you to adapt to every performing situation and stage size without sacrificing tone. The lowest two settings (5w / 1w) are ideal for home (or even bedroom) levels with the 1w setting offering slightly more overdrive for aggressive tones at whisper-quiet levels.

3 Reverb Circuits

Because we love tube & spring reverb but the traditional design is a one-trick pony with limited usable range. The Spaces reverb is comprised of 3 independently-selectable circuits, each with its own drive, decay, and tonal signature:

  • Space 1 is like a "room" reverb where reflections are lively, ranging the depth and decay length based based on mix. This is the "tightest" setting, with less low-end in the wet signal and a parallel mix path that preserves your guitar's presence even at near-100% mix levels.
  • Space 2 is our signature reverb—big and bold with more low-end information and size. Designed to improve upon the classic spring reverb, Space 2 offers a deeper and more spatial sound with more clarity and presence. 
  • Space 3 is just plain huge. It allows a great deal of low-end into the reverb signal and has the longest decay of the three. Space 3 is reminiscent of a classic 60s spring reverb in terms of depth but can handle a massive wet signal with more usable range on the mix dial. It's a fun and inspiring circuit that encourages experimentation in registers and frequencies typically not found in an all-tube spring reverb.
