I'm starting a new amp company and thought some might like to check it out!

It looks like a million bucks. I can't listed to the tracks at work unfortunately. Are they built to order or do you keep them in stock for orders? If build to order, what's the turnaround?

Great amp! Killer sound and looks... I love the 2nd mp3.

I wish you look on your new company; it should do great.

My business plan is pretty simple. I'm in the midst of my first production run already. I've ordered a bunch of custom transformers, headcases, switches, already got tons of amp and footswitch chassis. I'm building them on my own dime. The customer should not have to pay for my R&D or amp stock. My website will launch as an informational site with no inventory available for sale next week. I expect to have ten amps ready in time for the LA Amp Show in October where I'll be launching the company. Also waiting on 3 4x12s for me for demos/shows/personal use... (I'll be selling those as well, of course). When the 10 amps are ready, I'll update the stock on my website so people can buy 'em. I'll send out a notification on Facebook and Twitter and hopefully a few folks will buy 'em. If somebody buys one, it ships out to them the next day. No deposits, no waiting list, no pre-orders. Just buy one and get one. When they are gone, I'll guage the market and do another (hopefully larger!) run and sell 'em the same way...

Awesome, best of luck with the project. I wish I had the stomach for a startup.

[Hellbat]

Good luck. It looks like you've got a great product.

Very nice looking amp bro. One thing to consider is your price point though. You don't want to overprice. The trick is to get a well known player to endorse it. I would assume you are already working on that.

Appreciate the thoughts bro. I think I've priced the amp very competitively with other hand built boutique amps (Diezel, Cameron, Fortin, Bogner custom shop, etc.).

Wow!!! Really nice job all the way through. Everything looks clean, well thought out and executed - and it sounds good too!! Good luck I would love to see a small start up company hit it big.

[Cygnus X1]

Well, you also want to send the right kind of signal, i.e. you're not marketing a low-end product. Bang & Olufsen have increased sales on several of their products by raising the prices in the past. It sounds strange, but if you're aiming at the high-end market, you have to be in the right bracket, price-wise.

[roodyrocker]

The amp looks and sounds good! As soon as I saw the description of the quality components and saw those Mercury Magnetics transformers I thought Wow! Best of luck with the new company Steve.
