Hiwatt DR20/0.5 Head - The Little Rig
The DR20/0.5 head is the Little Rig in its smallest form: the preamp and tonestack of the DR103 and DR504 feeding two EL84s for 20 watts, with a switch that takes the whole amp down to half a watt.
Normal, Brilliant and Linked inputs sit across the front, and the Linked jack is the Pink Floyd modification built in, driving more signal into the first ECC83 for a fuller and more present tone. Four ECC83s do the preamp work, and variable impedance outputs on the rear match 4, 8 or 16 ohm cabinets.
