Once again Fat Sound has managed to find a new amp that is destined to have actual staying power in the market.
We have always avoided "fad amps" like the plague. This may make us seem almost boring at times, but you can believe that when we take on a new line it's because I personally believe there is something truly special and unique going on with it.
The Nolatone Tango 22 seems, on the surface, to be yet another dual 6V6 20+ watt amp....yada...yada.....yada; however, this amp has some of the most glorious clean tones I have ever heard.
It also has perfect pushed clean, edge of break up tones *and* is easily capable of searing gain. All of these tones are incredibly easy to dial up.
The amp's master volume is extremely effective, the bright switch adds just the right amount of shimmer when using the cleaner, more Fender-like settings and the Boost switch kicks this amp in to a perfect overdrive level with serious crunch, infinite sustain and excellent articulation.
It's a very special amp to play. It *feels* perfect, sounds phenomenal with any kind of guitar, looks spectacular and won't break the bank.
I give the Tango 22 my highest recommendation. If Dumble had built a single channel amp that aimed to cover all the tones he achieved with his two channel amps, he might very well have built the Tango.
It's magical!
Dual JJ 6V6 power tubes
Rear panel bias contact points for user adjustability.

First Review from long-time Fat Sound customer and multi-high-end amp owner Michael A. of Blacksburg, VA........via email 11-7-2008:
"Stu,
the amp arrived today, lo and behold, and I just ran it through a quick workout with a Tele and a Les Paul.
A number of dual metaphors come to mind..."Beauty and the Beast", "The Power and the Glory", etc. Most dynamic amp I've played to date, I believe, in terms of digging in to get some grind and backing off for pristine, sparkly cleans. The overdrive tones are unbelievably chewy and lush.
I'll probably never have an OD pedal hooked up to this amp. In fact, with the boost footswitch, I might never have to use a pedal with this amp at all unless I needed some modulation, perhaps.
The "sag/firm" circuit is extremely effective and useful as well. Spectacular amp - thanks so much for turning me onto it!"
Thank *you* Mike for getting this new amp line off on the right foot! |

Man.....Mike Fuller and Robin hit it out of the park with this one. This is a truly dynamic overdrive pedal that is similarly responsive to my guitar's volume pot as nearly any high-end tube amp I have used.
Capable of incredible smooth, realistic, infinitely sustaining overdrive with a big, stringy low-end (lots of definition), but when you roll back the guitars volume a tad you get a reedy, honky tone that remains me of Warren Haynes' Govt. Mule tones.......and I'm talking about in to a nearly clean amplifier.
Roll back the guitar's volume a bit further and you get a snappy, percussive clean with a bit of musical compression.
A home run!
