You try hundreds of guitars or basses attempting to find "the right one", and then you need to plug into something, right? - preferably, the best amp that you can afford whether you are a professional or a beginner. We carry a wide variety of amps from the simple solid state practice amp to the very best in hand-built tube amplification.
Our employees have owned or tried virtually every brand that has ever been on the market (some of us collect them!). Some are great, and some have been a disaster. When we decide to stock a particular amp or manufacturer, we rigorously judge whether or not we would take it on a gig or a recording session. Whether it's a tube, digital modeling, or solid-state amp, it has to pass our tests of reliability, value, and most of all, TONE! - yes, even the practice amps! If it doesn't, we don't stock it. It's that simple.

This Germino Classic 45 212 Amp is a limited edition (#1 of 1) combo in killer off-blue. The Classic 45 is Greg Germino's incredible take on the classic JTM-45. To hear this baby in the flesh is an off the chart experience. The size of the new combo box is smaller and it sounds simply amazing. Check it out for yourself in this great video clip from Germino Amps.

This incredible Bogner Uberkab 412 is much bigger than a breadbox, and much, much louder. This Uberschall straight cabinet model features a black front speaker grill and a combination of Celestion V30 and G12T75 speakers wired at 8 ohms. This combination unleashes the brutality of the Uberschall amp, it helps to maximize the low end and give great cutting power to the mids/highs. Crafted with sound, resonance and complete quality in mind, first and foremost, Bogner is built to perfection - down to the tongue and groove joinery. Once you've tried the Bogner Uberkab you'll never go back. As Grant likes to say, it'll blow your pants legs around, if not completely off.

The Fender® G-DEC Exec is for guitarists who want all the incredibly versatile features and portability of the award-winning G-DEC amplifier, plus a little more! That "little more" is a gorgeous three-color sunburst Maple cabinet, with an oxblood grille cloth, shoulder strap and deluxe padded cover.
The G-DEC (Guitar Digital Entertainment Center)is a unique and fun practice amp/songwriting tool ideal for beginners and experienced musicians alike, and boasts more features than most full-size amps, all in one small, easily portable package. You get digital recreations of 17 classic amp types, 29 effects, 10 reverbs, a tuner and many more parameters great for designing and saving your own sounds (or just choose from the 50 cool presets).
The 15-watt G-DEC has as much digital power as Fender's Cyber-Series amps, so practice along with onboard MIDI drum loops and bass lines in many styles and speeds, create your own guitar loops with the Internal Phrase Sampler, stream MIDI files from your PC and use the auxiliary input and filters to zero in on different instruments in any song from your mp3 or CD player.

The Dr. Z Mazerati GT Head is loaded with 12AX7s, four EL84s, and a 5AR4 rectifier and takes top honors as one of the most versatile and most portable heads ever.

The gain comes on fast and strong allowing you to simply use the volume knob on your guitar to provide sparkling clean tones. The best direct guitar to speaker amplifier with the highest gain ever from a Z amp. Tons of touch dynamics and LOUD.” This Dr. Z Mazerati GT Head gives you killer gain while maintaining clarity and complexity.

This Dr. Z Z Best 212 Cab is a Celestion Vintage 30/G12H30 loaded Theile ported cab. Flat out the best sounding 2 x 12" cab in existence.-Grant. The low end is determined by the port thickness, Mid response by the shelf depth, and Top end by choice of speakers. Placed vertically, the Z Best delivers a tuned focused sound, yet has the airy qualities associated with open back cabs. Placed horizontally, you pick a bit more low end as the port is then coupled with the floor. This is a long throw cabinet that will get the sound to the back of the room. The Dr. Z Z Best 212 Cab delivers, in spades.

This Genz Benz Shuttle 3.0 and 10T is an amazing piece of engineering. The 2.75 pound David delivers a Goliath 300 watts at 4 ohms and 175 watts at 8 ohms. The cabinet is ten inches, perfect for a practice amp. The best part of this "combo" is that the head itself can detach from the cabinet -- it easily slides right off. I plugged it into a 4x10 cabinet today and its sound was big and punchy. -Dustin

The Dr. Z Air Brake is hands down, one of the best power attenuators on the market today. Very neutral and true to the original tone of the amp. Simple and easy to use. Everybody with a loud tube amp should have one! At a gig, the Z Air Brake is can help limit your overall dB level at any time during a performance, allowing you to manage your amp's overall volume without varying from your amp's favorite settings. When you're at home, it can help lower volume while still allowing for full output tube distortion. The Dr. Z Air Brake even has a "bedroom" level control that, when selected, will allow for fine adjustment and maximum attenuation down to 1 watt (with amps less than 100 watts.)
