The TubeMeister's classic 12AX7/EL84 combo delivers glassy cleans and volcanic leads from its two footswitchable channels and fast, familiar 3-band EQ. An onboard power soak makes the TubeMeister flexible for live work, recording, and practice, allowing you to dial back the wattage from the full 20 watts to 5, 1, or 0 watts without sacrificing tube tone and response. Sweetwater guitarists applaud Hughes & Kettner for building the power soak right into the head - a feature not common in stock amps.
Tube Safety Control monitors and prolongs tube lifeThough they sound great, tubes can be ticking time bombs, ready to go out at the worst moments. The TubeMeister Deluxe 20's Tube Safety Control (TSC) continuously monitors power tubes and adjusts their bias so you get the best sound and longest tube life possible. The TSC takes failing power tubes out of the circuit to protect your amp and lets you see their status at a glance.
Speaker-simulated DI for convincing tones without a cabinetThe Hughes & Kettner TubeMeister Deluxe 20 features a compact version of its award-winning Red Box DI, which faithfully mimics the sound of a miked 4" x 12" direct from the head. Send this signal straight to a live board or recording interface for convincing guitar tones without having to mic a speaker cab, or combine with a real miked sound for flexible mixing options. This feature, paired a speaker-off silent mode, makes the TubeMeister a fine studio tool for any time of the day or night.
