Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Hartwood Interceptor Valve Amp 2 x 12" Angled Vertical Stack Overview

View this description in Norwegian

The Hartwood Interceptor Valve Amp Head presents versatile tone shaping possibilities in a robust, compact enclosure. From sparkling cleans to full throttle leads, by tailoring the positions of the seven classic styled chicken-head potentiometer knobs you're a few tweaks away from achieving the tone of your dreams.



Thanks to the inclusion of a "High / Low" button, the Interceptor offers an incredible degree of playability, making it equally suited to studio recordings as it is to live performances. This switch allows you to achieve a full-bodied 15W output, as well as a "cranked" amp sound without maxing out your volume. Take your tone further by adjusting the fixed frequency 3-band EQ and presence knob for instinctive shaping, whilst the combination of 12AX7/EL84 valves and a real spring reverb imparts a unique sonic imprint on your sound.



With a valve buffered FX loop and boutique inspired styling, not only does the Interceptor sound the part, it looks it too. Presented in a stylish racing green finish with striking white stripes and piping as well as a basketweave grill cloth, the Interceptor Valve Amp Head pays homage to British motor-racing heritage, offering maximum aesthetic appeal. This bundle comes complete with a 2 x 12" Celestion equipped cabinet and speaker cable.

Hartwood Interceptor Valve Amp Head, British Racing Green

Versatile tones

Whether you desire sparkling cleans, vintage crunch or high gain leads, a whole range of tonal possibilities are just a couple of adjustments away thanks to the intuitive, on-board 3-band EQ. Each of the fixed frequency bands have been purposely chosen to ensure your approach to tonal sculpting feels instinctive. You can even adjust the "Shape" control to determine the overall fidelity of the signal, lower values are great for "effect" style parts whilst maxing out at 10 offers a full bodied sound.

Handpicked valves

To optimise its performance Hartwood auditioned a carefully selected range of valves for the Interceptor before finding the perfect pairing. At the heart of the preamp lies three 12AX7 valves, these are renowned for their ultra-low noise performance, rich harmonics, articulated lows and smooth top end.

Embraced by many leading amp makers, the power amp section boasts a pair of EL84s. Not only do they offer a long life, capable of withstanding the rigours of continued use, their sustained valve power guarantees maximum volume and tone, without compromise. Both sets of valves are visible through the unique Hartwood leaf emblem rear grille.

When paired with a cabinet, "High" mode (15W) allows you to easily project your sound in small to medium sized venues, without the need of a PA system, whilst "Low" mode (1W) is excellent when you desire reduced headroom, allowing you to achieve cranked tones at a moderate volume.

Unparalleled control

The perfect blend of heritage and technical innovation, the Hartwood Interceptor Valve Amp Head comes complete with its very own FX loop. A key asset to pedal users, this ensures you have total control over every aspect of your tone.

The FX loop means you don't have to plug your entire chain directly into the front of the head and are able to insert processing between the preamp and power amp. Thanks to its all-valve architecture, your tone will maintain maximum clarity and transparency, regardless of how complex your pedal chain may be. You'll even be able to take full advantage of the preamp to achieve unique saturation, and even distortion when pushed to extremes.

Real spring reverb

The Interceptor includes it's very own analog spring reverb. Unlike a digital reverb, the beauty of this is your performances will never sound the same twice, the head will respond accordingly to the part you play, adding a unique sense of depth and dimension to your sound. Not only will lead lines soar, this head can take your tone right back to the ‘50s and ‘60s, injecting pure vintage mojo into your sound. Combined with the characterful sound of valve amplification, coaxing a range of phenomenal tones out of this head couldn’t be easier - from vintage warmth to high-gain saturation, anything will feel possible.

Remote access

The inclusion of a reverb footswitch input at the rear of the head allows you to connect a footswitch (not included) to achieve remote access to the in-built reverb. This means you'll be free to alternate between a dry/wet sound midway through your performance, without having to reach for the amp head.

Road ready

The Hartwood Interceptor Valve Amp Head is built to last. Each corner has been reinforced with durable protection guards to minimise the risk of superficial damage to the stylish finish, whilst the rubber feet eliminate the possibility of unwanted vibrations and protect the surface on which the head is placed. The sturdy carry handle allows you to transport the Interceptor with ease.

The perfect pairing

The Hartwood 2 x 12" Celestion Vintage 30 Cabinet is the perfect pairing with any amp head. Equipped with two Celestion Vintage 30 speakers, this cabinet is able to handle powerful, overdriven tones at loud volumes whilst maintaining absolute clarity.

The Hartwood cabinet offers the same level of build quality as many high-end cabinets at a cost effective price. Thanks to its 18mm ply construction the 2 x 12" cabinet provides a lively, punchy sound perfect for a wide range of styles and genres. It is also able to endure the rigours of continued use that come with touring, ensuring a solid, consistent performance at all times.

Celestion equipped speaker

Hartwood's 2 x 12" cabinet comes equipped with a Celestion Vintage 30 speaker. Featured on many seminal albums, the Vintage 30s have been embraced by the likes of Slash (Guns n' Roses, Slash's Snakepit Velvet Revolver), Steve Stevens (Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, Robert Palmer) and Peter Frampton (Humble Pie, Peter Frampton). Renowned for it's upfront mid-range, warm low-end and articulate top-end, there's good reason why they're featured in many boutique cabinets.
