AmpegAmpeg · 1946Ampeg began in 1946 with Everett Hull’s tailpin transducer for upright bass. Jess Oliver later engineered the B-15’s flip-top chassis. It defined studio bass tone for decades—but only for players who matched its physical and sonic constraints.

Hiwatt DR103HiwattThe Hiwatt DR103 is a 100-watt all-tube guitar amplifier head built for clarity, dynamics, and power-tube saturation at high volume. It has four inputs, two speaker outputs, bass/mid/treble/presence/master volume controls, voltage and impedance selectors, and no effects loop or direct output. Its crystalline highs and strong presence suit rock over jazz. Saturation requires driving both channels simultaneously. It is physically heavy and operationally uncompromising.

Fender amplifierFenderFender amplifiers are electric instrument amplifiers produced by the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. The first guitar amplifiers attributed to Leo Fender were manufactured by the K&F Manufacturing Corporation (K&F) in 1945. Later, Fender began building its own line of electric guitars. Fender amplifiers would become favorites of guitarists like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, also known in these cases for playing Fender guitars. Fender amps have come in many configurations and styles. The early K&F and Fender amplifiers relied upon vacuum tube circuitry, with solid-state models appearing in the late 1960s. Fender frequently updated the internal circuitry of its amps, and changed their appearance throughout its history.
