Swart Amplifier Co. introduces the ST-45 Convertible
Michael Swart has turned the Wilimgton, North Carolina Swart Amplifier Co. into a mini behemoth in the market of low-wattage guitar amps.
Well, there's a first time for everything, and at Summer NAMM 2014, the company has unveiled the Space Tone Forty-Five (ST-45) Convertible amplifier.

It's Swart's move to 6L6, to bass and treble, to a fixed bias solution, and it's 45 watts of power. The ST-45 has Swart's lush tube reverb, tube tremolo, and tube Rectifier... with more juice.
