Amy-Tone: Dirty Amps

Well, we spent all that time making the perfect little amp and our beautiful shiny-faced Cheryl-Tone finally came along, all pure (at least on the surface) and sure to make you proud.

And we should have been proud,
but at the back of our minds was a
lurking little boiling
hubble of a darkness
that we could never seem to
displace.

Oh, we tried to stay in the light, avoid the shadows and everything else, but we couldn’t resist the dank, dirty little charms of our Cheryl’s darker and more insidious big sister.

And so we finally just had to give in to the urge, accept that we can’t imagine a world of clean bright tones for every occasion, we have to accept that sometimes we all want a bit of filth right from the off.

With a heavy heart, although a racing of the pulse, I commend to you our ‘other’ type of amp I bring you Amy-Tone, and may God have mercy on all of our souls.

But what does she sound like?

Well, Amy-Tone is a dirty and fuzzy bitch right from the off. She is seedy, Lo-Fi in-excelsis but guaranteed to give you a good time just as soon as you plug in. A quick twizzle of your knob though, and she turns into a furious mess of fuzzy fury, biting spitting and encompassing you in her emaciated filth.

She is a dirty little secret that'll eat you for breakfast, but man it will be the ride of your life.
