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.
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.
