I Metal Test the Budget Practice Amp – Harley Benton DNA Amp20

Today I’m putting the Harley Benton DNAFX AmP20 through a full METAL test — because on paper this little 20-watt modelling combo looks like the ultimate budget practice and rehearsal amp for guitarists who want real high-gain tones without spending big money. It comes loaded with 8 classic and modern guitar amp models (Clean, Country, Blues, Rock, Lead, Brown, Ultra and Metal), 6 programmable user presets, a Class D power amplifier and a 1x 8” full-range custom loudspeaker. You also get DSP modulation effects (flanger, phaser, tremolo, chorus), DSP delay/reverb effects (spring, delay, Del+Rev and reverb) with tap tempo, plus a 3-band EQ, Drive & Master controls, built-in digital chromatic tuner with multi-coloured LED display, Bluetooth audio receiver for backing tracks, headphone out, line in, and footswitch input for switching between user presets. So the big question is: Can this compact modelling combo actually handle real metal riffs, chugs and drop tunings… or is it just another practice amp that falls apart under gain? 🎸 Buy the Amp Featured Harley Benton DNAFX AmP20 👉 https://thmn.to/thoprod/590648?offid=...
