Our Best-Selling Amp Just Got Better | D20 MK2 & JL
Revv D20MK2 & D20JL | Golden Age of Gear Ep. 40
It’s new amp day! Derek and Joey plug straight into the brand-new Revv D20 MK2 and the D20 Joey Landreth Edition — no pedals, no frills, just pure amp tone.
Both amps take everything players loved about the original D20 and make it even better:
– More headroom thanks to larger transformers
– Bright switch for extra sparkle
– Onboard reverb for club gigs and grab-and-go sessions
– Footswitchable boost for live flexibility
– A new tolex headshell look that feels like a “real” amp on stage
The D20 JL takes it a step further with tight low end, forward mids, and extra grind dialed in by Joey himself for the studio and the road.
???? In this video we compare the MKII vs JL side-by-side, talk about cabs and custom speakers, and answer the question: Would you actually buy an amp at a band’s merch table?
???? Tell us in the comments: Which one would you take home — the D20 MK2 or the D20 JL?
???? Like this video if you want more amp shootouts, and don’t forget to subscribe for the next episode of Golden Age of Gear.

Hey, you are luring me in closer. I did hype buy the Ocelot by Badcat and returned it for a couple reasons. The unit got so hot that it was not movable once warmed up and the tones did not sound like any badcat Ive owned. The tubes popped and it shut down mid riff, they said take another , I said how could I trust this live onstage at Church???? I would not . So I got my money back and went right back to D20 lineup. SO if you read all of these then you will get this far, How hot does this get and do you use it (Derek) on Sundays?
Hello, i truly believe you need a second off the shelf option with a grey grill. Beije is not very appealing aesteticly to many people and having to get a custom just because of a grill…
I have a Two Rock Bloomfield OD. Would love to try this too but (stupid question), but would this have clear differences or accomplish a lot of the same outcomes? I follow Joey closely so know he’s used both. Love it regardless. Appreciate you guys. Go Jets!
Well the saving starts…. the D20JL is on my Chsristmas list! (Or my Birthday which is in January…). That JL sounds killer!????????????????
What a truly awesome way to present a new amp by friendly chatting and playing the thing, Bravo????????????
An autographed and gig used JL20 would definitely be added to my collection if it were available. ????
Had to jump in to say I love my D20 and 1X12 cab with ET90. Such a killer amp. I've used it on hundreds of gigs, big and small rooms, outdoors, in the studio, etc. for the past 5 years. Love the new features and will probably grab one.( I would love stereo XLR outs). Cheers
Interesting! I tried a D20 and the lack of headroom and no reverb contributed to my decision to move it on. I may take a good serious look at these MkIIs.
I think the idea of bringing gear to the merch table is a great idea. I don’t have easy access to gear like this near me at home so I think it makes a ton of sense. Only downside is it’s more stuff you have to lug around. Can’t wait to see you play at Antone’s in Austin, Joey! Already purchased tickets!
I had the D20 and it was killer. I kind of miss it and this new mkII version might convince me to purchase it again. Love the traditional tolex design as well as the reverb addition.
If Joey came to Australia with any of that gear at the merch table, I would totally be interested in buying the pedals and the amp. I am in the market for a new amp and am very interested in these new D20 heads. Also, I’d love to see Joey do a collab with Tommy Emmanuel if the Bros Landreth ever came to Australia (Canberra in particular)
Was lucky enough to be at Peach Guitars in the UK this week to hear the guys play the amp and explain what’s going on under the hood.
YouTube has ‘a sound’, rest assured this amp sounds monster in the room. Also sounds akin to a 50, even if it does say 20 watts.
Terrific product – well done team. ????????
Cool to see more JL edition gear! I swapped my Princeton out for a JL25 combo, and it's rad!
Gear at the merch table is cool too. The Bros should do a collab with a strap company and sell them at the merch table. My favorite merch I ever bought was a guitar strap at a Jason Isbell show. Beats a T shirt by a country mile. I've seen Eric Johnson sell straps too. I bet Joey could move lots of those.
Really like this Amp and Cab. Will start saving up for. it sounds amazing and love the new look. Cheers
These amps look awesome. This is exactly what REVV needs. Does that mean the G20 is gonna get updated too???
So cool! Congrats to all my REVV friends
bring those amps to the merch table!!!
joey should show more ankle in more things.
it's true: derek has no feelings.
Your stuff is so awesome it pisses me off. I have to deal with my 68 RI Vibrolux Reverb and Peavey Classic 30 Jack Daniels edition and basically Jonez for an amp of this quality.
Had the pleasure of talking to Dan Trudeau about this amp in January at Namm, could feel his excitement talking about this, I told him how much I love this Dynamis series, have 3 of this amps and now I will get one of this as well, just such a great company and amps, love Revv.
I so look forward to these weekly videos. Congrats on a stellar new release!!!
Thanks for the cool gear reviews. I'm saving for the next G20 ;). Have you guys heard of Barefaced guitar cabs? And would it pair well with the G20?
Love this. I need a MK2 and I completely understand Joey using wirelss in the studio hahaha. It's the most infuriating thing constantly having to untangle cords especially if you're moving around alot.
g20 mk2 when? 🙂
Derek, that Novo sounds so great into this new D20…. great stuff. Yep, I’d buy an amp at a merch table.. especially if it had been used at the gig. Maybe one day at Pedal Empire ?
Any word if the G50 will be getting an update soon?
Awesome! I was one of those tens asking for the JL head. I was about to pull the trigger on a D40, but now I have a decision to make. Can you shoot out the Dynamis line in a next episode?
