Guitar Amplifiers

Electric Guitar Amps come in many sizes!

Depending on your needs there is a Guitar Amplifier for every situation. Practice Amps, Full and Half Stack Power, Pre Amps, Mini Amps, you name it! Some of the most popular Amp companies are Marshall, Line 6, Fender, VOX, Mesa, and Yamaha to name a few.

First lets discuss Combo Guitar Amps: These are very popular guitar amps because they range in power from small practice units to levels for a concert hall! They are very easy to transport as well. Another welcoming feature is that you can get a pretty good combo amp without breaking the bank. They are a great choice as "Multi Purpose" amp. Perfect for gigging, rehearsals or just practicing in your room!

Full and Half Stack Guitar Amps: FULL stacks which consist of an Amplifier Head and 2 large Speaker cabinets. HALF stacks just have one cabinet. These amps are best suited for big rooms or clubs. Marshall has made a big impact with their Stack style amps and have helped shape Rock Guitar History!

Mini Guitar Amps: Amps that are very small, light, and usually not too expensive. Very common as a secondary practice amp for the home or low level rehearsals. These make great beginner amps or a practice amp.
