Boasting aesthetic improvements, cutting-edge circuit mods, and bolstered durability, the PRS Sonzera 20 is back and ready to rock with two channels of versatile, ear-grabbing tones. Bell-like chime? It's there. Thick crunch. No problem. Heavy saturation? You got it. Sculpt each channel with independent tone controls. A global Presence knob dials in the perfect level of intensity. Inject your lead tone with a distinctive high-end snap via the Bright switch. A lush reverb adds dimension to your playing; or you can use your own effects with the built-in effects loop. In short, the PRS Sonzera 20 is a rock-solid gig- and studio-worthy guitar amplifier.

Tube Amp vs Solid State -?What's the Difference?


Dial in your sound with flexible tone-shaping control





You've got a lot of playing to do before you've heard all the Sonzera 20 has to offer. Two footswitchable channels supply everything from clean tones to aggressive high-gain sounds. The Clean channel's three-dimensional sound evokes vintage American amplifiers; the Gain channel yields everything from boosted cleans to saturated distortion. Shape your tone to perfection with independent tone controls for each channel; add a high-end snap to your lead tones with the Bright switch. Need to up the intensity? Use the amplifier's global Presence control. If you've got a tone in your head, then you can create it with the Sonzera 20.





Professional features and high-class tone





The PRS Sonzera 20 is easy to integrate into any guitar rig. You've got 4-/8-/16-ohm speaker outputs, so you can connect an extension speaker cabinet to push more air. And the built-in effects loop integrates your time-based effects without impacting your tone.





A sweet-sounding, footswitchable reverb





The Sonzera 20 is outfitted with a rich-sounding reverb. At Sweetwater, we appreciate how it enhances notes without clouding them. We also love how the reverb is footswitchable for convenient real-time control.
