Pure expression of vintage soul and modern precision. Completely hand-built from the ground up in Los Angeles, meticulously hand-wired one at a time, the old-fashioned way, using the finest materials and components (much of which is reclaimed and repurposed with love and care).

World-class tone captures all the fidelity and nuance expected from a tone machine of this caliber. Rich, warm, and deeply musical, the Sequoia delivers that signature "woody" low end with incredible detail, clarity, and harmonic depth. Responds beautifully to touch, capturing the nuance and feel that discerning bass players demand.

Inspiration guaranteed.

Proven on the world's biggest stages, Corey McCormick tours with his Sequoia (and Black Volt Bass guitar) as part of his live rig with Neil Young. A true test of tone and roadworthiness under the most demanding professional conditions.

Separate head and speaker cabinet configuration allows flexible stage setup. Solid reclaimed wood cabinet features hardwood mitered spline joinery for solid wood corner-to-corner strength. Authentic vintage blanket or material grill cloth included.

Controls include volume, treble, bass, presence (hi frequency), and XXX Gain Channel for additional grit and brightness when needed.

This amp changed everything for me.

I've owned vintage Fenders and modern boutique amps. Nothing comes close to the touch response and clarity of this build. It's like the amp is reading my mind.

Worth every penny.

The reclaimed wood isn't just for looks—you can hear the difference. Richer tone, more resonance. Plus, Gio actually answers when you call. Can't say that about any other builder.

Stopped my gear obsession. This is the one. Hand-wired perfection that'll outlive me.
