Effect Loop included. Reverb.

From vintage to modern, Tech 21's Trademark 60 offers the industry's most desirable tube amp sounds, and provides the flexibility to create your own signature sounds as well. This 60-watt combo guitar amplifier has 2 channels. The Boost function expands the capability of the 2 channels by increasing each of their output levels up to 9dB, providing 4 footstwitchable sound options.

Built into the Trademark 60, is Tech 21's highly-acclaimed SansAmpTM Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry, which encompasses all aspects of multiply-miked tube amp rigs. By incorporating this proprietary technology with a Tech21 special design 12 in. speaker, the Trademark 60 sounds as big and smooth as a vintage 4x12 cabinet. For studio and live applications, the SansAmp circuitry also enables the Trademark 60 to be run direct to the mixer of a recorder or PA system.

Channel 1 offers a range of Fender-styles, from sparkling clean, to semi-dirty, to saturated Tweed-style. It has its own Drive, Punch, and Level controls. Punch sets the amount of midrange break-up and overdrive. There's also a Bite button which tightens the low end and add brightness.


Channel 2 delivers amp sounds ranging from traditional Marshall�-style, to Mesa/Boogie� Rectifier-style, to Vox AC30-style. It has its own Drive, Growl, and Level controls. Growl is a powerful and sophisticated midrange control. It can give you that scooped-out, heavy sound without making your guitar sound thin, and without any loss of volume. read more There's a Weep button, which increases the amount of even harmonics and thickens the sound. It provides a "singing" quality like that of a Class A tube amp.

The Master Section includes Low and High EQ controls. The Boost and Reverb functions can be accessed via the footswitch - either individually or in tandem by utilizing the Link button. For solos, in particular, this unique feature gives you the ability of increasing the size of your sound, as well as the volume.

Included with the Trademark 60, is a triple-function footswitch to alternate between channels, engage the Effect Loop, and activate the Boost and Reverb functions. Tech 21's footswitch is engineered to utilize any standard 1/4 in. instrument or speaker cable vs. the usual problematic custom mulit-pin connector. Other features include a full-length, top-of-the-line Accutronics 3-spring reverb; an XLR Direct Output; a Headphone Output that doubles as a 1/4 in. direct out should an XLR input not be available on your recorder; and a courtesy power outlet so you can neatly secure your effects in the back of the amp.

The exceptionally versatile Trademark 60 gives you a truckload of big amp sounds in an affordable, cost-effective, 36 lb. combo. Above all, the Trademark 60 delivers consistent, professional quality sound at home, in the garage, on stage, and in the studio

"Awesome amp - better than tube."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Love this amp... all I need now is a head version. (They offer a Trademark head but with a different circuit and no reverb).
Sound
Great tone, better than several tube amps, at any volume. Overdrive is very heavy but with amazing clarity. Best combo amp in the market. I sold a Mesa Nomad and bought this one and I don't regret it at all, sounds better and I still was able to keep some money from the Mesa.
Features
Features are ok, but they need to re-design the footswitch so it has boost and reverb switches independently. Also need a ext speaker out for a 4x12.
Quality
very well built plus its solid state so no problems with tubes going bad.
Value
Best combo amp for the money and beats a lot of amps costing 3 x as much.
Manufacturer Support
Tech 21 staff is knowledgeable and helpful. I've emailed them a couple of times and they always get back to me quickly and efficiently.
The Wow Factor
The most important thing on this amp is really the tone. It is THAT good.
