Soldano has just introduced the world to their new ASTRO-20 Head. The ASTRO-20 is a is a 3-channel, 4-Galaxy, Built-In-USA head that combines authentic all-tube tone designed to be a fully-featured versatile 20w guitar amplifier. The ASTRO-20 can also be used as a stand-alone cab-less amplifier ideal for live sound, rehearsal and studio recording sessions, thanks to the DSP powered IR cabinet simulation.
The ASTRO-20 is powered by two 6V6 power tubes and four 12AX7 pre-amp tubes. There are three channels to select from – Clean, Overdrive 1 or Overdrive 2 º with the Clean/Green Galaxy is a high-headroom circuit reminiscent of classic American combo amps, and Overdrive 1 and Overdrive 2 including independent Volume and Gain with a shared 3-band EQ. The Blue, Purple, and Red Galaxies can be assigned independently to each of the Overdrive channels via the Galaxy select switch.
But what are the Galaxies? The Blue Galaxy ranges from bluesy cleans to fat and sparkly hard rock tones. The Purple Galaxy takes over where Blue leaves off, delivering higher gain and a tighter response. The Red Galaxy takes you on a journey starting from Soldano’s iconic lead tones to a new phenomenal high-gain universe.
