Zvex Nano - The World’s Smallest Tube Amplifier

Now this little bad boy looks too good to be true! The Nano is the latest release from Zvex Amps and it totally redefines the possibilities for getting a big sound in the home or professional studio.The Nano is a handmade, hand-painted all tube guitar amplifier delivering one-half watt of crushing power! But seriously, this little powerhouse will surprise you with its apparent volume. The Nano pushes out enough power to drive a 4x12 cabinet (or any 8 to 16 ohm speaker) and according to Zvex it is at least 20db quieter than a 50 watt head.

This is amp is anything but a gimmick. Anyone who has spent some time tracking guitars knows it can be pretty challenging and time consuming to wrestle out a decent tone from a 50 to 100 watt Marshall without overloading the mic. This amp is voiced to deliver classic rock tone, with a very high level of crunch available if wanted. It goes from a very quiet (1/10 watt) clean mode to a "micro-marshall" blast; Just jack up the volume to get the amount of distortion you need.

The obvious huge advantage in the studio is that the Nano is able to go into total saturation at a moderate volume so that you don't get any microphone distortion and you get a crystal clear reproduction of the speakers sound.
