Similarity
citedBlended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.

Description

The 3rd Power Lyra is a handcrafted 20-watt 6V6 boutique tube guitar amplifier built in Minneapolis that combines the voiced characters of two iconic Fender Deluxe amplifiers: Channel 1 is voiced after a 1962 brown-panel Deluxe, delivering warm, woody, naturally breaking tone, while Channel 2 captures the clarity, headroom, and expanded response of a 1965 black-panel Deluxe. Both channels are American-voiced, open, expressive, and touch-sensitive throughout the gain range. A built-in power attenuator scales output from 20 to 12 or 5 watts while preserving player-amp responsiveness, and built-in tube-driven spring reverb is standard on all configurations. Available as an amp head or 112 combo.

The 3rd Power Lyra 20 is a 20-watt, dual 6V6, tube-rectified 1x12 combo amplifier with two independent channels inspired by distinct eras of classic American amp design: Channel 1 voices the warm raw character of a 1962 brown-panel Fender Deluxe while Channel 2 captures the headroom, clarity, and refined control of a 1965 black-panel Fender Deluxe. Hand-wired in Minneapolis, it includes tube-driven spring reverb, custom USA-wound transformers, and a patented VenueMode attenuator offering three wattage settings at 20W, 12W, and 5W. It targets blues, roots, country, and classic rock players who want authentic American vintage Fender DNA in a modern giggable format.
