Product Description
Zephyr 22 Combo
Truly a player’s ‘desert island amp’, the Zephyr 22 is almost the bigger brother of the 15, sonically bridging the gap between perfect musical compression and a the thicker sound of the Zephyr 35. Sporting either a 1 x 12” or 2 x 10” Jensen Vintage Ceramic speaker, (depending on your preference for low end fullness or midrange punch), the Zephyr 22 hits breakup at such a perfect sweet spot, it’s ideal for medium volume rehearsals and smaller stages.
Whether you’re chasing that hard to find perfectly responsive American drive sound for chord work, or that not-quite-clean-yet-not-quite-dirty lead tone that just loves delay and reverb, the Zephyr 22 might be your answer.

Zephyr 22
This is the third model Labros made for me and it's my personal favorite for all round size, sound, versatility, and tone. At 22 Watts I found it wasn't always loud enough for larger venues so Labros suggested he soup it up to a 30 Watt with a 15 Watt switch option. This is my workhorse amp now and I highly recommend it. Ironically, I mostly use it on the 15 Watt setting, but it's nice to have the head room there for the larger gigs.

Stunning build & Quality
I suppose good things comes to those that wait. After an agonising wait of 6 weeks that felt like 6 months due to my eagerness to get hold of this amp. What a great looking amp, well built. Quality components. It sings like a bird without any pedals. Great reverb sound, plugged a strat straight in , a few twiddles of the tone section & there was the sound I wanted. Breaks up nicely at louder volumes. Well worth the wait. Over the moon with this. Thanks Labros.
