Amps

Bad Cat Tone Cat

This 2005 Bad Cat is a roaring lion! Two amps in one, this killer combo features a Black Cat AND a Hot Cat in one chassis. Think DC30 tones and full on cranked Marshall tones in one box. Phew!

Captures
Vox AC306/TB

There’s nothing like an AC30 and this one stands out. Upgrades galore with Mercury Magnetics transformers and filtering to JMI specs. G12M Greenback and Fane F25 speakers.

Captures
Fender Prosonic

Fender cleans…yet something totlly unique. This amp pairs eerily well with an AC30 but can absolutely stand alone.

Captures
Matchless Clubman

Alright I confess…this isn’t my amp….but she’s still awesome! This may be the perfect blend between a Chieftain and a DC30. A bit “Marshally” but something unique altogether. Pairs great with the Prosonic and AC30.

Captures
Dr. Z Z-80

The "legacy" amp of Dr. Z. The Z-80 is the Doc's prized circuit based on countless iterations of the AC80 of yesteryear. This amp carries some of the best "AC30" tones I've ever heard and the pairing with the Zilla Studio Pro cab (Celestion Alnico Gold/Cream) is a dream come true!

Coming Soon!
Benson Chimera

This amp is already a modern legend. No doubt Chris’ Chimera will live on in the annals of the greatest boutique amps of our time. Is it Fendery? Is it Voxy? Is it Marshally? Nope. It’s its own beast entirely and I love it!

Coming Soon!
Komet Areo 33

Top notch clean chime mixed with the richest harmonic grit dreams are made of, the Aero 33 is one of the best amps I’ve ever had the joy of playing!

Coming Soon!
Elliott Revenuer

Like the Clubman, this amp is not my own, but rather loaned to me for the joy of capturing! Since Andy only made a handful of these, these captures will be ultra rare!

Coming Soon!
Fat Jimmy JAC15

I’m an “AC” junkie and am in hot pursuit of the best EL84 amp I can find. Fat Jimmy is another boutique amp company on the rise making some killer interpretations of classics. The JAC15 is loosely based on an AC15 but with many alterations. This amp should be arriving in March. Stay tuned!

Coming Soon!

Cabs, Speakers & Mics

The core of every guitar tone includes the pickups, amp, speaker, cab and mic. Finding the best speaker for the amp is key.

Cabs

Zilla Studio Pro 2X12 https://www.zillacabs.com/studio-pro

90’s VOX AC30/6TB 2X12 (I removed the amp and put it into a head shell and now use the combo as a cab)

1997 Fender Prosonic 2X10 (I removed the amp and put it into a head shell and now use the combo as a cab)

2005 Bad Cat Tone Cat 1X12 (I removed the amp and put it into a head shell and now use the combo as a cab)

Speakers
