PRS Sonzera 20 20-watt 1 x 12-inch Tube Combo Amp Reviews
Boasting aesthetic improvements, cutting-edge circuit mods, and bolstered durability, the PRS Sonzera 20 is back and ready to rock with two channels of versatile, ear-grabbing tones. Bell-like chime? It's there. Thick crunch. No problem. Heavy saturation? You got it. Sculpt each channel with independent tone controls. A global Presence knob dials in the perfect level of intensity. Inject your lead tone with a distinctive high-end snap via the Bright switch. A lush reverb adds dimension to your playing; or you can use your own effects with the built-in effects loop. In short, the PRS Sonzera 20 is a rock-solid gig- and studio-worthy guitar amplifier.

Very happy with this amp
Love this amp... I was looking for a small tube amp that would sound nice at bedroom volume but could also get a bit louder if needed, and there are a lot of options. I almost went with a Princeton but I chose this one because it has the effects loop. The amp takes effects extremely well. I run several drive pedals into the front and then all my other pedals go through the loop and it works super well. This amp performs on par with the Princeton amps I tried out but it has two channels and the loop. Very pleased with this purchase.
Fantastic Tube Amp With Amazing Clean & Dirty Sound at a Great Price!
I've had this amp for a couple of weeks and already love it. Its two channels produce great sound. Clean is sweet and starts getting a bit throaty with the volume past 3:00. Nice! The lead channel produces a warm yet driven sound that keeps getting stronger, but not overwhelmingly, as you increase the gain or level. Great reverb. My sales engineer at Sweetwater, Jon Mostacato, is highly knowledgeable, caring, and proactive. I love this amp. Love Sweetwater!

Preface: I've owned this amp a little over a week now (out of the honeymoon phase) and am writing this review of sound mind..... Maybe.
Ok, on to the review. I've been in the market for a low wattage combo amp for a bit now and these were my requirements:
Control panel on the front for easy adjustments.
Preferably had an effects loop.
Well built and relatively on the lighter side (50lbs or less).
After reviewing numerous other brands, I came across the PRS Sonzera 20 and it certainly checked all of the boxes for me, however, there were so many mixed reviews from the older one, I was a bit weary. Regardless of these reviews however I was interested in this amp and wanted to check it out for myself.
Pros:
Beautiful clean channel that handles pedals very well.
Well balanced EQ with plenty of tonal options on both channels.
It has an effects loop! -Sorry Fender
An amp switch is included! -Why aren't other brands doing this?
Sweet and simple design.
Cons:
