Scottsdale, Arizona (January 11, 2008) -- In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the SWR Redhead, the company is introducing the newly redesigned Redhead bass amplifier.

The MSRP is set at $2,349.99.
The original Redhead, introduced in 1988, combined SWR’s clear full-range tube preamp with a robust solid-state power platform into an easily portable 2 X 10 cabinet.
