That
One
Studio
Guitar
Amp
ver the past few years, in our annual guitar-themed issue we
have reached out to the industry for advice on the best available
products for capturing stellar guitar tones. In 2019 it was That
One Electric Guitar Microphone, where we asked companies to weigh
in with their top microphone choices for recording electric guitar, and
last year we focused on the latest advances in amp modeling with That
One Virtual Amp. This year we decided it was time to get real-real
amplifiers, that is, so we spoke with 19 amp manufacturers to find out
what one guitar amplifier in their line they would most recommend to
the studio owner looking to build up a collection of great-sounding
amplifiers. Here is what they had to say...

From chiming boutique cleans to on-the-edge crunch and full-on distortion,
the HT-20R MkII delivers the sound in your head. It combines
simple and intuitive controls with pro features like studio-quality reverb,
an effects loop, and speaker-emulated output. At home or in the studio,
the Power Reduction switch takes you down to 2 watts without any
compromise in tone, while the USB audio output lets you record yourself
with ease. The HT-20R MkII has been used by Jared James Nichols and
Lexi Funston of the Paranoyds. -Brianna Totino, Blackstar
