Electro-Harmonix recently announced their latest game-changing guitar pedal: the 15 Watt Howitzer Amp/Preamp pedal!
The new ultra-compact pedal essentially functions as a workhorse power amp for your guitar rig. It’s ideal for guitarists who want to use it as part of their portable guitar or as an emergency backup/gig saver should their main amp bite the dust mid-set. It includes volume and gain controls to let you go as clean or as crunchy as you want, while the bass, mid, and treble knobs provide tons of flexible tone-shaping options. See the full specs below!
The 15 Watt Howitzer features:
- Pocket-sized form-factor, perfect for studio and live applications
- Simple, 4-control design, featuring volume knob, bass, mid, and treble controls, and a bright switch for added presence
- 15 watts of power to let you dial in a range of tones, from clean to crunchy
- FX loop allows you to insert stompboxes between the preamp and the volume knob
- Connects to any 8- or 16-ohm speaker via speaker cable
- A 9V DC/500mA power supply
From EHX Founder, Mike Matthews:
“Dig it! The sandwich-sized 15Watt Howitzer is perfect as part of a compact guitar rig or backup. But the thing I dig the most, is the tone that emanates from the Howitzer. It’s super versatile and—depending on what kind of setup you’re running—fits into any style that’s your bag!”
