An amp, short for amplifier, is a crucial piece of equipment that boosts the signal from your guitar or other instruments, allowing you to control volume and shape your tone. Guitar amps come in various styles, including valve (tube), solid-state, and digital modelling, each offering unique sound characteristics. Whether you’re practicing at home, recording in the studio, or playing live, the right amp can make all the difference in achieving your desired sound—from clean and crisp to rich overdrive and distortion.
Bass is at the heart of the rhythm section, and we’ve got everything you need to build your perfect setup. From powerful bass amps and deep, rich effects to essential accessories like strings, straps, and cases, this category covers it all. Whether you’re a beginner laying down your first grooves or a gigging bassist shaping your signature tone, you’ll find top gear from trusted brands right here. Dive into our full range and take your low end to the next level.
Bass amps are specialised amplifiers designed to reproduce the low frequencies of bass guitars with clarity and power. They deliver deep, punchy tones and are built to handle the demands of low-end sound without distortion or loss of definition. Bass amps come in various forms, including combo units and separate heads with speaker cabinets, and often feature controls tailored to bass frequencies, such as EQ settings and built-in effects. They are essential for bassists seeking to fill the sonic space in any band or recording setup.
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.
Watt is a unit of power that measures the output strength of a guitar amplifier. In amps, watts indicate how much electrical power the amp can deliver to the speakers, which generally correlates to loudness and headroom. For example, a 5-watt amp is great for bedroom practice or studio use with natural tube breakup at low volume, while a 100-watt amp can fill large venues with clean or distorted tones. However, wattage alone doesn’t determine tone quality—it’s about how the amp uses that power and how it interacts with speakers and effects.
