    This is the whole story. Like virtually 99.9% of all brands, Egnater does NOT make their own transformers. The transformers for many years were built by a company called Federal which were reliable. Federal changed ownership (without notice to Egnater) and the genius new owners decided to save a few pennies by changing Bruce's transformer specs by adding a thermal fuse which was mis-rated. This fuse was not the resettable type, meaning once the fuse blew, the whole transformer would need replacement. So even though the amps passed inspection and burn in, over time the fuse would give out on this large batch of amps. The result to the world appears like bad quality on Egnater's part. The truth is Federal messed up big time. Here are the steps Egnater took: 1) all transformers which had this issue were replaced at no charge. 2) stopped using Federal 3) switched all transformers to CMEC at a substantially higher cost 4) implemented a very stringent test procedure

No reliability issues whatsoever just a great amp with great tone for a great price.

    I concur. I've played a Tweaker for several years now. It's a great amp. Also would like to mention that the Tweaker 1x12 cab has a lo-watt Celestion g12h-30 which is very well matched to a 6v6 power section, which is kind of confusing since Egnater's website says the speaker is a 'Custom Voiced Egnater Elite GH-50 by Celestion®', although they show a picture of the g12h-30?

    +john candlish yeah I researched that cab before buying and even Egnaters site said it came with the G12H when it hasn't for quite some time now. I'd venture to guess the product descriptions are outdated. If you get one new with a G12H then it's been sitting in a warehouse for a long while. The change was made a couple years ago from what I could decipher.

    I picked up a floor model of the Tweaker 15 (combo), for $220 (about £160). It is the best purchase Ive made aside from my les paul. The only thing that may replace it is a supro dualtone or comet (someday when I have much more cash). I swapped out the tubes, its cathode biased so those power tubes popped right in, and it is just a great amplifier. Im happy see Chappers have the same response to it that I did.

    Nice review. The Tweaker is a killer amp, used them live and in the studio since 2011. The one thing this review doesn't cover at all is the sweet spot on the master volume (on the 15w at least). At about 1 o'clock the amp goes from "cool" to "wow"! Of course, it's pretty loud by then!

    I've owned the 15w tweaker head and cab for a few months now, and I'm so damn happy with it. Sounds fantastic. It's really really good for recording. If you're after hi-gain tones, you're really going to need an overdrive pedal of some sort, as even on full gain on the hot channel, it's not a huge amount of gain (with passive pickups anyway). For clean and slightly overdriven/crunchy tones it's faaaaantastic. couldn't recommend it more. But just make sure you get a reverb pedal with it.

    I've owned the 15 watt head for a few years now. My impression is that it does not exactly imitate any amp, but it does give good approximations of those amps. The USA setting is "Fender-y", the Brit is "Marshall-y" and the AC is "Vox-y". I'd say the USA setting is the one that best approximates its target sound. With the power amp on vintage, USA sounds more tweed-ish and modern sounds more in the black/silverface range. The Brit setting is a decent approximation in the preamp section. I'd say that the AC is probably the furthest away from the intended sound, it doesn't quite chime the same way. Probably due to the 6V6 power tubes vs. the el84. It's a great little amp. As some one whose main amp is none of those 3, but wanted to have those sounds on hand, this really fit the bill. Much easier on the wallet than buying 3 amps, and also takes up much less space.

    I agree about the us setting. The Marshall setting is equally lovely. I read an article with Bruce Egnater where he claims the tone stack is the vast majority of the signature sounds of various amps and the type of power section wasnt as important as people think. Not sure how true that is.

    You pretty much described the Tweaker accurately. This amp is by no means a "MODELING" amp, but gives you an approximate base tone of the three popular tones, Marshall (Brit), Vox (AC) and Fender (USA). You can fine tune your tone by tweaking the several switches and dialing the tone controls. The Tweaker is also very pedal friendly to get more added tone variations. Its a great versatile amp, you can say this amp is like a Swiss Army Knife that has many uses.

    Very true. It will get you almost anywhere tone wise you want to go. And although the sections may be approximations, they are great. It's blackface setting doesn't sound exactly like a DRRI, but it sounds fantastic. If you want a DRRI buy a DR. This is all despite it being so affordable. Couldn't agree with you more.

    This is from another comment above that I found very helpful: This is the whole story. Like virtually 99.9% of all brands, Egnater does NOT make their own transformers. The transformers for many years were built by a company called Federal which were reliable. Federal changed ownership (without notice to Egnater) and the genius new owners decided to save a few pennies by changing Bruce's transformer specs by adding a thermal fuse which was mis-rated. This fuse was not the resettable type, meaning once the fuse blew, the whole transformer would need replacement. So even though the amps passed inspection and burn in, over time the fuse would give out on this large batch of amps. The result to the world appears like bad quality on Egnater's part. The truth is Federal messed up big time. Here are the steps Egnater took: 1) all transformers which had this issue were replaced at no charge. 2) stopped using Federal 3) switched all transformers to CMEC at a substantially higher cost 4) implemented a very stringent test procedure

    Hey Nathaniel, I've large hands, long fingers, yet still find a low hung guitar gives my wrist a lot of pain and restricts me on reaching across lots of frets. Don't go down the looking cool thing, it'll likely detract from your playing and cause damage to your wrist. Keep thumb on back of neck as much as possible to freely move around your guitar. look for ways to play without having to move up and down the neck all the time. When you gig, anything that will help you get to the end of the night is more important than looking cool and sounding bad. Sorry for the Old man theory/opinion

    Scott Mac yeah, i know that having a guitar low hung extremely restricts your playing ability and can over long periods of time injure your wrist, there are still a few ways around this, to an extent, to make the playing a little easier, like during solo's or just technical playing in general, resting the guitar on the leg and bringing the neck up much more vertically and closer to your face, makes the higher frets much more accessible. i know that looking cool isn't a priority, and isn't needed, but we all want to be looked at a certain way and we are all judged on appearance, not saying we should listen to those people, but i personally when looking in the mirror, prefer the low hung look, and im sure most others do and want to go that route, i just like my guitar around my pelvis area, or slightly higher depending on how technical the stuff i am playing is. i still go for a little comfort with the strap height, but all i'm saying is a shorter scale length,like 22.2 or maybe even slightly longer but not in the 24 scale would make it much more easier to have those higher frets much more accessible for players with small fingers, still wanting to have the "cool" factor in there lol.

Suffocation, No breathing Don't give a fuck if I cut my arm, bleeding... but if there are good guitars out there with short scale lengths, why not? it'll help out a lot, make us happy, and I wouldn't be hurting anyone because of it.

    I dont think they will do it but there are other guitars that have smaller fretboards, not scale wise but just physically smaller, i dont have big hands either but i play guitars that are comfotable for my hands and most of them are ESP/LTD, but for example music man/ sterling by music man/ ernie ball have smaller fretboards, I had the same exact problem with wanting to have the guitar lower then i do now but it was too hard to play and you will end up injuring yourself which you dont want to do, the kind of fans that will actually care about that are the same fans who probly wont pay close attention to the actual music, another thing to try is wearing the guitar lower but have the neck up at more of a higher angle to improve comfort-ability but your probly gonna need a strap lock so the strap dont come off, playing a shorter scale guitar will be different when you tune it and you wont be able to play as high of notes as you would with a normal scale length, you will 100% want locking tuners and thicker strings to keep the tension up, the best short scale guitar i've seen and played is a Grass Roots by ESP Mini Les Paul, i basically got super lucky and stole the only 1 from guitar center's website for $100 US, the cheapest i found another 1 was $833 on E-Bay so that felt good getting some revenge on GC for all the ripping off they do to people, but if you play an Ibanez then going to something like a ESP/LTD M series(super strat body type) wont be much different but the necks are very comfortable for me to play, also try to avoid bound fretboards because even though its not a ton wider it will still make a difference and give you that extra mm or 2 smaller neck, just go to a guitar shop and hold a bunch of different necks and ask them what guitars have smaller necks and try some out, if you can try to use the same amp you use at home so you will know what it will sound like when you go home, people make the mistake of using a expensive amp in a store that is totally different to their home amp and sounds good then when they get home to their amp it dont sound the same
