In addition to our premium line of products, we offer several services to the discriminating player. We have listed some of them below. Email us if you have something in mind not listed on this page.

Blues Junior Conversion

PCB Blues Jr -> Hand-Wired

We are those guys who gut perfectly good PCB amps and turn them into hand-wired boutique amps. Please visit the Blues Junior page for details.

Reissue Rebuilds

PCB Reissue -> Hand-Wired

Have a '65 Deluxe Reverb reissue you would like turned into a hand-wired Deluxe Reverb? Maybe a '57 Bassman reissue made with cheap PCB? How about one of the many other reissue amps built onto PC boards? We can turn it into a hand-wired boutique amp that will make the reissue sound like a toy in comparison. Please visit the reissues page for details.

Amp Repair & Restoration

Cap Jobs, Bias Work, Resurrections & more

We can fix it! We do cap jobs, bias work for new tubes, and resurrections on amps which seem to have died. We have brought many old Black Face and Silver Face Fenders (not to mention quite a few Tweeds) back from the dead and would love to take a crack at yours! We also restore previously modded vintage amps back to their vintage specs. And we don't like people who mod vintage amps just for the record. Service work costs $55/hr with a 1 hour minimum. Most work takes less than 2 hours.

Kit Building

You Buy It We Build It

Have an amp you are GASing to own, but can't afford the real thing? Now you can own your very own clone! If you would like to buy a kit, but are not comfortable with building it yourself, send it to us (or have it drop-shipped) and we will do it for you at a very reasonable cost. We build all kinds of amps around here and can surely figure yours into the equation. We will deliver the same guaranteed build quality found in our own custom amps. See the friends page for a few suggestions for where to get a good kit. Most kit builds cost about $449. Photos of some recent builds are here.

Black Facing

Silver Face -> Black Face Specs

If you happen to have a Silver Face amp you would like modded to Black Face Specs, we can do that for you. Turn that Silver Face Deluxe Reverb into a Black Face Cream Machine!

Amp Mods

Hot Rodding & Tone Shaping

We design and build custom amps and use that knowledge to modify existing amps to improve their tone or add more gain. If you have an amp you would like to mod, we just might be experts in its particular circuit. Just don't ask us to mod a vintage amp. We won't even think about it and might even yell at you for asking.
