Wood grain Marshall beauty!

Kirk Greenman out in Hawaii needed a faceplate and backplate to compliment his Marshall build that he finished with an amazing wood grain front panel. The folks at Amplates.com were happy to help out by using his old plates as templates to ensure a perfect retrofit on the amp chassis!

Princeton Amps Never Looked This Good!

 

Deric Dobesh wanted a modern looking faceplate and nameplate to complement the green tolex and wheat grille on his Fender Princeton Reverb style build. He liked the slick look of the brushed silver/black faceplate material and we used the same stock to make the matching nameplate. The result, I think you'll agree, is fantastic! Great job, Deric.

Better than a Marshall

Great video of the Carr amplifier factory

I've always loved the look and sound of Carr amps. Plus, Steve Carr seems to be one of the nice guys in the industry. Here's a cool video by Ask Our Musicaians that takes you on a guided tour of the Carr shop.
