Why Harley Benton’s new DNAFX AmP20 is the “perfect practice amp”

Why buy multiple pedals and amps when one small combo can cover it all? Harley Benton’s new DNAFX AmP20 brings eight amp models, a host of effects, and preset storage into a tidy, 20-Watt practice amp that won’t break the bank.

Priced at just $116/£103, the DNAFX AmP20 is a 20-watt Class D combo designed to give guitarists a versatile setup in a single, compact unit. Built around an 8” full-range custom speaker, the AmP20 delivers eight amp tones spanning Clean, Country, Blues, Rock, Lead, Brown, Ultra, and Metal. Whatever your style, this little amp has you covered.

Adding to the flexibility are six programmable user presets, a 3-band EQ, as well as Drive and Master Volume controls. LED indicators make dialing in settings a breeze, even at a glance.

Onboard DSP effects include modulation options – Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo, and Chorus – as well as time-based effects like Spring, Delay, Delay+Reverb, and Hall. There’s even a tap tempo for delay, letting you sync effects perfectly to your playing.

Despite its friendly price tag, the AmP20 doesn’t skimp on practicality: you get a built-in digital chromatic guitar tuner with multicolored LED display, Bluetooth for playing along with backing tracks, a line-in for external sources, and a headphone out for those late night practice sessions. An optional footswitch (sold separately) lets you toggle between your six stored presets without missing a beat.

Measuring 33 x 346 x 202 mm and weighing just 6 kg, the DNAFX AmP20 is compact enough to move around easily but packed with enough features to feel like a full rig.

The Harley Benton DNAFX AmP20 is available now at Thomann. Check out the amp in action below.
