5W SE Class A • Tube Reverb • 12" Speaker 6V6/6L6 • Glorious Breakup w/Cleans Switch! Take the original, ever popular, Class A, single-ended 5w ST-6V6se and pump it with steroids via another gain stage, killer tube reverb, and a 12" speaker and you have the new STR-Tweed, quite possibly the most FUN Swart amp to play yet. And the beast runs 6L6, too! This is truly a low watt monster and I cant stop wiping the grin off my face. Literally. This zero feedback circuit gets the added control of a switch letting you bypass the extra gain stage for more available cleans, and all with that great tube reverb that Swart has become known for. This truly might be Swart's most raw, big toned amp, all housed in our finger jointed pine cabinet in lacquered tweed (optional Dark Tweed & original STR Cab). More Info |
5W SE Class A • Tube Reverb • Tube Tremolo 12" 6V6/6L6 • Creamback, BV-30, Celestino Blue This is our new favorite go to option, the latest amp that is causing all the buzz and intrigue, so much so, it was back ordered before #1 had even left the shop. And who wouldn't want all the amazing tone and compelling breakup of that Swart single-ended, low watt STR glory with all tube reverb AND tremolo? Indeed. Bottom line, it's another great little amp with excellent swirling cleans moving into that great breakup and sweetness all the Swart amps are known for. This is essentially much of the 5w, single-ended Class A STR-Tweed circuit with a unique 3-way EQ switch that is very handy along with this tube tremolo so addictive in the AST. Yep, it's Cathode Biased for no users adjustments with tube sub/rolling. Like all Swart's, can run the 6V6 and 6L6. Bring in ZERO NEGATIVE FEEDBACK for that open, quick, touch sensitive sound. Don't forget the 5AR4/5Y3 Tube rectification for the amazing lack of harshness combined with the wonderful sag and compression when needed. Comes with the Mojo BV30, or the excellent CREAMBACK, one of our favorites... but LOVES the Celestion Blue Alnico, too (Tux Cab w/Blue is Killer)! Available in Tuxedo 60s covering or TWEED with dark sides. More Info |

TUBE. ALL TWEED. ALL RAVES In just a handful of years, the Swart AST has received some of the most glowing raves of ANY amplifier in recent memory. This amplifier has 20w of twin 6V6 power in high Class A biased AB and brings some of the most soulful, rich, near three-dimensional tone you have ever heard. This has to be one of the most expressive amplifiers made to our knowledge, and we've tried more than a few. TUBE REVERB and TUBE TREMOLO, something virtually nonexistent in today's marketplace, is just part of the picture. Includes a 12" Custom British Vintage Series BV-25m that screams TONE with body and soul; This amp has excellent breakup (wait till you hear the samples). This all new circuit is housed in a lacquered TWEED pine cab with dark Tweed panels. This amp is in its own league. More Info |

Bypassable Master Volume - Tube Reverb/Trem 18-20w ~ 6V6/6L6 ~ 1x12 or 2x10 Also known as the AST Mk II Combo. The Master is essentially the AST Head Mk II chassis and circuit placed in a custom 1x12 cabinet (2x10 driver on special request). Like the AST Head MkII, the AST Mk II Combo has a defeatable master volume and can run the stock 6V6 and 6L6. Can be fitted with a variety of 12" driver options. This is a very sweet setup with a bit more fullness and bottom than the AST combo although a touch hotter setup as well. Retains head's ability to run 4-8-16ohm loads and comes with two outputs. Can run INTERNAL speaker along with an EXTERNAL CABINET. More Info |
Introducing The Antares, Michael Swart’s latest all tube, point-to-point, hand-wired twin 6V6/6L6 amplifier. The Antares shares the legendary Atomic Space Tone’s attitude while being designed for those who crave a bit more headroom, bottom-end foundation, and bigger verb, while utilizing top mounted controls. Imagine the hallmark Swart 3D holographic, harmonic richness (anti syrupy or slow), partnered with that Swart transparency and touch sensitivity. Push it harder and you get that amazing breakup. An Antares owner noted, “The bottom end is really rich and hefty but still composed while the cleans are so sweet, clear, and vocal; push hard for that lush breakup.” The circuit features all-tube reverb and tremolo along with tube rectification; no solid state hardness or glare with this beast. Includes 3-Way EQ and high/low inputs to match guitar output. All pine, finger-jointed, hand-made, tilted back baffle. Cabinet comes in a host of tweed & tolex options. 1x12 or 2x10 available with Ceramic/Alnico speakers. NEW ANTARES MASTER and available in SMALL STR style cab! More Info |

Well, it's finally here and shipping, this after the biggest pre-release stir since the AST! Michael has just done it again with this beast, an amp that HAS TO BE HEARD IN PERSON TO BE BELIEVED. Yep, that deserves all caps for effect. Take two of our favorite 5w Single-Ended circuits, one with our reverb and one with our killer tremolo, stuff them in ONE Chassis with the ability to drive them both from your favorite axe, with a near infinite ability to tweak the stereo response, and you have the most room filling, 3D, LARGEST sounding amps Swart has ever produced. This beast is LUSH and PLUSH, and larger than life sounding. Takes 6V6 or 6L6 and can drive your two favorite cabs for the most separation or partner with our all new 2x12 Stereo cab, speakers set at 45 Degrees. Each amp can be configured to 4 or 8 ohms. Each amp has it's own volume and tone controls with 2 switch EQ. You can adjust the volume for each, changing the effect to hearts content. Really rewards creative thinking and experimentation. THE favorite option in the shop right now! Amps can be driven separately or together. Please contact your favorite Swart dealer to get in queue. Absolutely amazing. More Info |
This
amazing amp has really been a long time coming but the wait is worth
it. We're talking TWO 20 watt amps in one chassis, each with separate
controls for EQ & tone along with tube/spring tank reverb and 2X
Tube Tremolo with a unique Stereo Master Volume control. Michael has
been planning this amp for years. Simply put, you have to hear it to
understand how BIG this thing sounds. The dark tweed head is truly something
special. And it will take 6V6 or 6L6 for a bit more headroom. Rectifier
options include 5AR4, 5U4, and 5Y3 for most sag/compression and sweetness.

ALL Tube Verb/Trem - Master ~ 6V6/6L6! The AST Head MkI Limited Edition sold out in a record 45 days. What to do? Get Michael working on a second version, this time designed from the ground up to be run as a head, with the added advantage of a MS designed defeatable Master Volume that can be bypassed for the purist! This is the FIRST Master we have liked in a combo as it does not leech the tone and bottom end. The new head can now run 6V6 & 6L6. It's the same great AST circuit that has brought accolades from around the world, except now more flexible than ever! The AST Head II can push 4/8/16ohm cabs and has two outputs. The matching 1x12 cabinet comes stock with the Mojo BV-25 but can be purchased with speaker of choice. As always, the finger-jointed, lacquered tweed, pine cabs are first rate. This is destined to be another classic. More below. More Info |

NEW ALTAR TO TONE ~ NOTHING LIKE IT ! |
It's finally in production after the long wait but like a fine wine, it's more than worth it. The all new SPACE TONE FORTY-FIVE, or ST-45, is a first for Swart Amps on a number of fronts. It's our first 45 watt amp that is built and dedicated to the 6L6 tube, this via our first production Fixed Bias circuit to get the MOST out of this great tube. It's our first offering with separate bass and treble controls. Bottom line, this amp just has STELLAR CLEANS, so sweet and alluring, with no trace of the mechanical. Picture an AST on clean steroids. This amp really nails that elusive harmonic richness while still sounding open and transparent. The real kicker? It's actually as beautiful as it sounds, with another first for us, a full convertible HEAD cab that can be removed to show this beast off in full glory. IT's an aesthetic masterpiece mated with the easiest access to tube rolling fun you'll ever find. The cab is secured with four heavy duty latches. This amp made Buddy Miller reach for ye olde checkbook after only a few minutes playing at NAMM. Can be paired with matching 2x12 or 1x12. The 2x12 with CREAMBACKS is a winner but so is the 1x12 Gold or Cream. More Info
