PA/Amps

Expert Repair and Restoration of Vintage Tube Guitar and Harp Amps and Studio Equipment

Over the past twenty years, I have been doing vintage tube amplifier repair for thousands of musicians nationwide from my shop located near Sacramento, only an hours drive from San Francisco and the Bay Area in Northern California.

Preserve the sound and reliability that your unique vintage amp is famous for through knowledgeable servicing, not indescriminate parts replacement.

An important consideration in today's vintage market is originality. Preserving original components of a rare Fender amplifier is becoming just as important as original wiring in a '57 Stratocaster. I know what these amps are supposed to sound like and I know how to make them sound right. I have been a musician, so my understanding of amps is not merely technical. Whether it's a rare collectable Fender or one of the old Silvertone amplifiers you had as a kid, my goal is for you to retain as much originality and value as possible.

Over the past 15 years, I have also been restoring and modifying vintage PA amps for use with guitar and harmonica, including MASCO amps.
