The Sparrow
We were inspired by a specific Gibson GA5 amplifier that Johnny Depp left with us to repair a few years back (hence the Sparrow name).
The Sparrow amplifier is easy to transport to the studio and then to rehearsal sessions because it doesn't take up much space. It's lightweight but has the volume and tone to play with a full band at reasonable volumes.
We also have an optional special feature in the form of a built-in Booster Channel that is designed specifically for this amp in collaboration with Chris Vincent from R2R Electric. Chris is known for building spot-on replicas of vintage Range Masters and Fuzz circuits with all period correct components.
