Space
Tone 6V6se - Mk1
Class A - Single-Ended
- 6V6 - Tube Rectified
Visit
some customer comments from the original version of the
little beast that stormed the net, starting it all.
Swart Amplifier Co got some great feedback, both
literally and figuratively, from a host of early First
Edition ST-6V6se fans. We decided to throw a few of the
more amusing ones up here.
"So they tell me I am the first of the fairer
sex to lust after the Space Tone (and pardon the well-placed
pun). Evidently, that calls for referential treatment
(Do I have to add that they paid me to say this stuff?).
I ride a Norton Commando, 1972 vintage, so I am used to
style and performance. The Space Tone is filled with all
that and more. Like a good British bike, it has performance
with SOUL. Unlike the vintage Brit bike, it WORKS! My
husband, who barely knows three chords (does that stop
him? nope), can tune a Brit thumper with his eyes closed
but does not like solder. My Space Tone is built with
an eye on detail and a mind on quality. That is what you
get with a custom piece of gear and this screams custom,
whether at 2 or 11 (and yes, it DOES go to 11 - Mr. Swart
gets it). Love and lust go hand in hand with my Space
Tone. And so far, my husband isn't jealous...yet.
He gets to play his allotted 45 minutes a day. It doesn't
take much..."

"Ok,
so I didn't believe it really. I'm a Fender amp man and
a Gibson guitar lover - You couldn't pry my 65 SG away
from my bloody fingers. Ditto for my Blackface Super Deluxe
with tone bigger than Life itself. Well, I got tired of
hearing my NC buddy blab on about his little amp that
could. Stop blabbing and SEND IT HERE! I would be lying
if I said the little tike made Papa Super Deluxe sleep...
But damn if this isn't a screaming little banshee with
that AlNiCo! In short, I WANTED ONE! I love this little
amp as it's got loads of TONE, GRIT, and Character. With
some vintage tube rollin', it's a late night blast to
give my neighbors something to ponder. Funny, now they
don't bang on the walls anymore! Are they Space Tone converts
too? This aint going back!"

"Wow...
The amp responds very nicely to playing dynamics (I could
easily go from sweet and clean to a little hairy to nice
and dirty brown by simply playing harder or softer), and
the tone and volume controls on my axe seemed to be voiced
better.
Man, I really had a blast putting this thing through it's
paces tonight, and I originally didn't even notice how
quiet the amp is.
I am seriously loving this amp right now.
