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.

Specs:

• Output Power / 5 Watts
• 1-6V6 Power Tube ⁃ 1-12AX7 pre-amp Tube
• Circuit is a blend of the best of the 1950’s little studio legends blending influences from the Gibson GA5, the Fender Tweed Champ and Princeton all voiced through the Black Volt Lens.
