An amplifier, or amp, is a device that boosts the electrical signal from your guitar to produce sound through speakers. It plays a crucial role in shaping your tone and controlling volume. Amplifiers come in various types, including valve (tube), solid-state, and digital modelling, each offering different sound characteristics. Whether used for practice, recording, or live performance, an amp helps bring your guitar’s voice to life with clarity, power, and personality.
Custom refers to instruments or gear that are specially made or modified to meet a player’s specific preferences and requirements. Custom guitars, amps, or pedals often feature unique designs, upgraded components, or personalised aesthetics that set them apart from standard production models. This category is ideal for musicians looking for one-of-a-kind equipment tailored to their playing style, sound, and look, offering greater attention to detail, craftsmanship, and exclusivity.
Guitar amps are essential for shaping and amplifying your sound, whether you’re playing electric, acoustic, or bass guitar. They come in various types—valve (tube), solid-state, and digital modelling—each offering different tonal characteristics and features. From compact practice amps to powerful stage-ready combos and heads with matching cabs, this category covers all your amplification needs. We stock a wide range from trusted brands, offering everything from clean tones to all-out distortion, perfect for home practice, recording, or live performance.
A head is the amplifier unit of a guitar rig that contains the electronics responsible for shaping and boosting your guitar’s signal. Unlike combo amps, a head does not include built-in speakers and needs to be connected to a separate speaker cabinet. This setup offers greater flexibility, allowing players to mix and match different heads and cabinets to tailor their tone and volume. Heads come in various types, including valve (tube), solid-state, and modelling, catering to a wide range of sounds and playing styles.
