About Guitar Amps

It all started with a simple quest: Make guitars louder! This need for volume (born from the big bands of the '20s and '30s) led to the birth of the very first amp. These early models, primitive by today's standards, provided the basis for brands like Fender to set the stage for an industry revolution.

As time progressed, brands like Marshall, Orange, Vox, and Peavey/EVH emerged as titans in the amplifier business. Iconic models such as the Marshall JTM45, Orange OR120, Vox AC30, and the Peavey 5150 not only defined the sound of entire musical eras but also found favour among legendary guitarists. Jimi Hendrix's preference for Marshall amps and Brian May's dedication to the Vox AC30 are exemplary, underlining the instrumental role of amps in shaping one's guitar tone.

The debate between tube amplifiers and solid-state amplifiers has divided guitarists for decades. While tube amplifiers are lauded for their warm, organic tones, solid-state amps are known for their reliability, consistency, and affordability. However, the advent of modelling amps has blurred this dichotomy. These amps, leveraging cutting-edge technology, successfully emulate the tones of revered tube amps, enabling guitarists to access an array of tonal possibilities at the flick of a switch.

Today, the guitar amp market is more diverse and versatile than ever. At Gear4music, we pride ourselves on offering an expansive range that caters to the tonal aspirations of every guitarist.

From affordable workhorse amps for the budding guitarist to boutique, high-end models for the seasoned professional, we've got you covered. From the smallest combo to the biggest stack of cabs and heads, step into our store and find the perfect amp to craft and enhance your unique sound.
