FROM PRS
The Sonzera 20 is a moderately powered 20-watt combo amplifier with two
independently controlled, footswitchable channels designed for maximum
versatility. The clean channel delivers full, 3D tones reminiscent of American
mid-1960’s amplifiers. The gain channel is related to the clean channel
circuit-wise, so that it can be set up to act as a boosted clean channel or
manipulated to make the channels sound like two completely different amps (the
gain channel can be set from slight to very heavy distortion by simply using the
drive and level controls). The bright switch on the gain channel has been carefully
tailored to deliver familiar high-end snap and is particularly effective on the low
strings, neck pickup settings, and with singlecoils, while the low-end response of
the gain channel is full, tight, and clear.
Both channels on the Sonzera are designed to maximize note clarity and
definition. The global presence control and the tone stacks allow players to dial
in a variety of tones from bell-like chime to warmer, thicker tones. The Sonzera 20
Combo also features global spring reverb control that is designed to
enhance notes without clouding them. The reverb can be turned on and off via
the footswitch. The addition of a built-in effects loop allows players to use all
their time-based effects with ease without negatively impacting the overall tone
of the amp.
With robust construction, a wide range of tones, and steadfast controllability, the
Sonzera 20 Combo is a solid gig- and studio- worthy amplifier.
