It's the only amp I know that can be driven yet somehow retain clarity
of individual strings. After 15 seconds of plugging a guitar in I knew
I had to have one.
I love it!

This thing's got some SERIOUS tone in it. I played nothing else for a
month!

An amazing amplifier, in an age of mass-produced cost efficient
compromise, this bespoke hand crafted gem is in a league of it's own.

Vintage sound with modern reliability; all I could wish for in an amp.
I can't stop using it...

My Little Chopper has made life simple; When I record guitar, I use it!
All my vintage amps have been left untouched since the day this little
fella arrived.

An amp's got to have some 'big shoulders' to make it into my
collection. This Little Chopper has VERY big shoulders and even BIGGER
tone.

I love my audio kitchen amp. It's the perfect recording amp. And that's
not just my opinion. producers, engineers, artists and musicians I work
with all feel the same.
Not long ago I went to the studio with out it, expecting to use the studio's guitar amp. They stopped the session and insisted I go home and get the little monster. They also made me promise to never show up without it again.

This amp is incredible.
I've never heard such beautiful musical distortion before; same goes for the top end too.
Overdrive/ crunch/ clean/ spiky/ warm it doesn't matter!!! It's a winner every time.
In the studio it's all I ever use!

"Some songs
required a dead clean
sound, some a more gravely
one, and the "power"
control was more than
useful in shaping the
overall sound. I and the
player were both
impressed."
"The amp is nice ...it has a number of nice sounds and it has gotten some attention, primarily from guitarists whose natural sound is not heavily distorted but shouldn't sound utterly clean. The power attenuation thing is interesting from a technical standpoint but hasn't yet proven to be the thing that blows people away. What people like about it is the nice transition from clean to mild breakup and the generally pretty high end. It doesn't have the brittle quality some small amps do. It was used several times for the electric signal from an acoustic guitar pickup, and it was particularly nice in that capacity, as some amps make piezoelectric signals sound raspy and harsh, but the Kitchen was more forgiving. It was also used by a country Telecaster flatpicker in preference to our Fender Twin, and the results there were excellent for similar reasons."

My never-ending quest for tone is over. In one amp!
From sweet clean, to speaker breaking distortion, I can dial in ANYTHING I want on this amp.

'This amp makes me feel like I am playing in a band, not
twisting in the wind. As soon as I plugged in I sounded like Eddie
Hazel, and I could play Maggot Brain, for God sakes! No turning
back, no turning back...'
Dom Brown (Duran Duran)
"The Little Chopper is one of the best recording amps I have ever used... it really cuts through any mix. The great sounds you can achieve at very low volume are what you would expect from a vintage amp on 11. I wish they had been around years ago!! "www.dombrown.com
