“In essence, the Dirty Little Secret is a ‘foundation’ pedal – a sonic platform to build the rest of your sound upon. It reacts to your playing dynamics and respects the character of your guitar’s pickups just like the classic British amplifiers it emulates. Use it to set your base crunch rhythm sound into a clean amp, roll your guitar’s volume back for cleans. The controls are simple and effective – Loudness governs output, Tone morphs from smooth and fat to crunchy and cutting, Gain goes from clean and clear to full crunch with harmonics, and the Rock/Rawk switch selects 60s - 70s JTM/JMP sounds (Rock) or ‘80s JCM tones (Rawk).” For a pedal that sounds and feels like you're playing some of the best British amps ... in fact, that doesn't feel or sound like you're using the a pedal at all - try the Dirty Little Secret by Catalinbread! |
The Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret is now available for only $299.00 - see here for more details |

“We used our ZT amps for the filming (VH1 Storytellers) last night and they performed beautifully…! LOUD!” - Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top) We never thought we'd get excited about a tube-less amp ... but here we are, loving the new Lunchbox from ZT Amplifiers! The Lunchbox defies every preconception and exceeds every expectation. It's caught on with big names such as ZZ Top, Wilco, Sonic Youth, Echo And The Bunnymen and MGMT - not as a backstage practice amp, but onto the stage as part of a live rig and into the studio too. It looks cute, but this amp is no toy! If you're looking for an (extremely) portable rig with great tone and projection (try it through a good 2x12 cabinet!) the ZT Amplifiers Lunchbox could be just the ticket!

"Lil Elvis is a breakthrough amplifier rooted in some lost designs from the early 60’s best designer. Based on a 2xEL84 power section, 12AX7 front end and a clean output of 12 watts. The authority and vocabulary of this little amp are truly surprising and inspiring. One will never feel that he’s playing a small amplifier at all. With the feel of a mini-4x12 rig, Lil Elvis is truly a pleasure for the rock, country, jazz, R&B and hard rockers alike. In addition to a truly astonishing vocabulary, touch response and harmonic content, Lil Elvis has 65’s “Master Voltage” (patent applied for). Our Master Voltage is a large leap forward in power technology. Not a scaling schema,attenuator or master volume, the Master Voltage keeps the entire vocabulary, authority, and responses down to 2 or 3 watts. This feature makes Lil Elvis an outstanding recording, small club or large stage amp especially when in-ear monitors are required for your gig." We couldn't have said it better! All the gorgeous chiming cleans you expect from a pair of EL84's and a raw-and-rockin' lead tone with the "Bump" switch engaged. And the Master Voltage really works for reducing the wattage while keeping the tone convincing at very low volumes. |
The 65amps Lil Elvis is now available starting at $3395.00 - see here for more details |

"Tonal treasure is the new Duende amp, a giant leap forward in the quest for a versatile lower-wattage channel-switching, reverb and tremolo-equipped 'grab and go' amp ..." The Bogner Duende is the perfect amp for those who love the simplicity and soulful tones of vintage amps, but need modern versatility such as channel-switching, FX loops, recording outputs etc. Channel A has sweet, warm clean tones that can be pushed into bluesy breakup. Channel B has the chunky gain tones you've come to expect from Bogner. And the best part - you can combine the channels to create a variety of 'in-between' settings and tones. Add that to the shimmering spring reverb and throbbing tube-driven tremolo, and you've got an extremely versatile little amp! |
