An Accessory Tailored for the Hiwatt Universe and the Leeds Series
Designed to integrate naturally into the Hiwatt ecosystem, this 2-button footswitch addresses a very practical need: quick access to amp functions without interrupting your playing. It is especially aimed at users of the Leeds range and fans of the Hiwatt "tube amp" behavior, where channel and reverb control are integral to the sound and dynamics both on stage and in rehearsal.
For Which Musician and Usage Contexts?
This footswitch suits all levels, from the beginner guitarist who wants to simplify sound changes to the experienced musician switching between rhythm and lead parts in a set. Ideal for concerts to switch channels at the right moment, it is equally useful in studio or rehearsal to maintain a constant playing flow, especially when reverb is used as a subtle "color" on certain passages.
