A 1×12 (pronounced “one by twelve”) refers to a guitar or bass amplifier cabinet that contains one 12-inch speaker. It’s a common size for both combo amps and speaker cabinets, offering a balance between portability and full-bodied sound. A 1×12 setup is often favoured for its warm tone, focused projection, and manageable size—ideal for small gigs, studio sessions, or home use.
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.
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.
