The Austin Sandpiper is a hand-built tube guitar amplifier that is unlike any other guitar amplifier available today. It is an amplifier of substance and refinement. Designed from the ground up to be extremely detailed, articulate, and versatile.

This is accomplished through a wide-open design philosophy that lets nothing get in the way of the sound of your instrument. The clarity of this amplifier is simply unrivaled.

And, the character of the amp can be changed by simply plugging in one of the many compatible output tubes. This brings about dramatic tone changes that go far beyond simple tone controls.

Every step of the design process has been optimised to provide the best result when it comes to quality. From its Celestion Alnico Blue speaker to the Mercury Magnetics "Fat Stack" boutique transformer to the swappable output tubes, every single design decision has been revisited to squeeze every last drop of tone out of it.

Built for the modern player, the amp is compact and as lightweight (35lbs) as it could be made considering it has "big iron" to support the articulation and detail required to allow each individual string to have its own, distinctive voice.

• Full "Class A" design.
• Minimum signal path.
