Our take

Who this one is for

The Sonzera 20 is a two-channel, 20-watt combo with a pair of 5881 power tubes, four 12AX7s and a Celestion V-Type speaker. PRS modelled the clean channel on American amps of the mid-1960s and built the gain channel from a related circuit.

That shared circuit lets the gain channel work two ways. Keep Drive and Level low and it acts as a boosted clean, or turn them up for heavy distortion. Its bright switch is tuned to suit single coils and neck pickups. Spring reverb and channel switching are both on the included two-button footswitch, and the effects loop takes your time-based pedals.

We'd point you to the Sonzera if you want reverb built in and two channels you can set close together or far apart. The DGT 15 1x12 Combo is the single-channel alternative with tremolo, and the Archon 50 1x12 Combo goes further into gain at 50 watts.

Questions we get

How much do I pay today?

Your choice: the full price, or a 25% deposit. On a deposit, the balance is due when the guitar reaches the shop, before it ships to you. A deposit is paid by card or PayPal. Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay can't take one.

When will it arrive?

It varies by product, anywhere from two weeks up to several months. If you'd like a date for this model first, ask us in the chat and we'll check with the supplier before you order. If you're ready now, go ahead: we confirm the ETA by email once your order is in, and if it changes, we let you know and you can cancel.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time before the supplier invoices it and ships it to us. We refund what you paid less 3% to cover the card processing fee.

Once it has shipped to us it is a special order and final sale. If it arrives with something wrong, we put that right.

What if the price goes up before it arrives?

You pay the price you ordered at. Once your order is placed we hold that price, even if the supplier raises it before the guitar arrives.

Is the free setup included?

Yes. A pre-order is an online order, so it gets the same free setup: it crosses our bench before it ships, set up the way you choose. The setup menu above shows what that covers.

Do I pay duty or brokerage on a US order?

No. Duty, taxes, brokerage and customs on a US order are handled at our end before the instrument leaves Ottawa. It arrives at your door with nothing to pay.

Orders going anywhere outside Canada and the United States work differently. The shipping and returns policy sets out which is which.

Can I finance it?

Yes, if you are in Canada and paying in full. Pick PayPlan by RBC or Shop Pay Installments as your payment method at checkout. The plan, the rate and the approval sit with the provider, and you see the terms before you agree to anything. You pay a deposit by card or PayPal.
