Note: This device is intended to drive a speaker cabinet and should not be placed in front of an amplifier or pedals.

Output for the stage, output/s for the soundboard

At 200 watts, the Ashdown NEWT packs a ton of stage power. Bear in mind that this is not equivalent to a pair of 100-watt tube heads, but it's still a fair amount of power for club gigs and venue monitoring. What's really cool is that the NEWT gives you not only a locking speakON speaker output for feeding a stage cab, but it also gives you a transformer-isolated XLR direct output for front loading a cab IR loader. Together, these completely eliminate microphones from the equation, which means simpler gigging when you just want to show up, set up, and rock out.

Accommodates extra-hot active pickups and silent practice sessions

No matter which pickups or stomps you deploy, the Ashdown NEWT can accommodate. The secret lies in the NEWT's high-headroom architecture and onboard -10dB pad. At Sweetwater, we’ve found that these functions are able to tame extra-hot signals without breaking a sweat. We also appreciate being able to use the NEWT for silent practice via its built-in headphone amp. All told, this pedalboard-friendly guitar amp head makes a great road companion.

Worldwide operation

Fly dates to club dates, the Ashdown NEWT's auto-switching 110V–240V power supply gives you dependable performance anywhere in the world.
