Approach

We believe that a great sounding amp inspires a player to play better. If you sound great, you're more into it and dig deeper. You might even find yourself playing more because it's just so much fun, you don't want to stop.


Tube amps require periodic maintenance to keep them sounding their best. It's analogous to periodic maintenance on your car to keep it running great. If your amp just doesn't seem to sound as good as it  used to, doesn't seem to respond to your touch the way it used to, is finicky, etc, it probably just needs a little TLC. It's also possible to improve on an amp that already sounds pretty good. Most people think of amp improvements/modifications as substituting resistors, capacitors, etc ... which it can be, but some of the simplest improvements are non-invasive and maintain the integrity of the original circuitry. For example, changing a speaker can have an enormous impact.
