100w (100 watts) typically refers to the power output of an amplifier. In guitar gear, a 100-watt valve amp is known for its headroom, volume, and punch, often used in larger venues or for heavy rock and metal tones. It delivers more clean volume before distortion compared to lower wattage amps, which means it stays clearer at higher volumes. However, it can be overkill for small rooms or home use unless it’s paired with an attenuator or run through a reactive load and cab sim. High wattage doesn’t always mean better tone—it just offers a different kind of dynamic range and stage presence.
A 2×12 (pronounced “two by twelve”) refers to an amplifier cabinet with two 12-inch speakers. This setup offers greater volume, a wider sound spread, and more low-end response compared to a 1×12. It’s a popular choice for players who want a bigger sound without stepping up to the larger and heavier 4×12 cabinets, making it suitable for medium to large venues and louder playing environments.
B stock refers to products that are sold at a discounted price due to minor cosmetic imperfections, such as small scratches, dents, or finish blemishes, but are fully functional and tested. In guitars, amps, and pedals, B stock items offer a great way to get high-quality gear at a lower cost without sacrificing performance. This category is perfect for musicians looking for value deals or those who don’t mind slight aesthetic flaws in exchange for savings.
