BUILDER PROFILE
All of our amps are based on the same
Marshall head-and-cabinet platform that
got me noticed in the first place. Our first
amp was called the Quick Rod, and it’s our
most popular model to this day. It’s a 100-
watt, 2-channel, hot-rodded ’80s-sounding
amp. The overdrive channel has three positions, which I call Gears, to go along with
the automotive theme. There’s first gear,
Hot Rod Plexi; second gear, Hot Rod 800;
and third gear, Super Hot Rod 800. On all
the amps, there are footswitchable lead and
rhythm sounds, and a solo boost with its
own Volume control.
A newer amp of ours is called the Nitro.
It’s basically set up the same way as the

Quick Rod, but voiced to have more low
end, more gain, and less midrange to suit
the modern metal player. A lot of guitar-
ists have been asking for smaller versions
of our amps, so we recently came out with
Brian Einsiger wires a 4x12 cab after having applied the Tolex covering.
