With regrets, you should have seen this information months ago. My apologies that I didn't monitor the website more closely. An update to the site did not post correctly. We thought we were good-to-go when in fact we were still presenting old info.
The sound remains the same, but Series II offers some new features. For details on Series II please check out the "products" page.
A Series II Club Classic Head.

Mouse Maze of Point Blank on the left performing with a Series II 50W Club Classic EL34 head at the Dallas International Guitar Festival. The "tiny" Club head is sitting on top of a Peavey head and 4x12 cab. This was the Peavey stage. Mouse is using the 4x12 Peavey cab with the Club Head. You can hear the performance on youtube. Search Point Blank Dallas. Look for the entries for 2009. There are also 2008 performances. I suggest "Stars and Scars", but if you have the time all of the 2009 performances are good.
Congratulations!You've found us; Club
Amplifiers. For 40 years we've been making great vacuum tube guitar
amplifiers for musicians looking for the "right sound" for every
performance. I'm Don Anderson, founder of Club Amplifiers, and I want
to thank you for making it this far. I hope we'll make beautiful music together.
The 2009 NY AMP SHOW was a blast, but 3 days of no-stop driving from Califonia to NY in a SUV loaded with amps was brutal. It was great to see the guys from Good Tone Amps and all of the rest of the exhibitors. As always I got to meet some truly great musicians. My thanks to everyone who stopped by the Club Amps room.

The picture above is the 2008 LA Amp show. This picture is the NY show.
Featured at both shows was the "Club Classic Stack". The Club Classic Stack was developed to be a "better choice" for the "high volume" club musician who has to haul their own gear. A 50W-60W head with two 1x15 cabs can fit into virtually any car. I'm sure many of you know how much fun it is to haul a half stack. But, with the two 1x15 cabs you'll have over 85% of the cone area of the half stack.
We had fun switching between three Eminence custom 15s and three Weber custom 15s, each with a unique voice. We covered the spectrum from 50s vintage straight cone to a custom Eminence with an aluminum voice coil for a really, really aggressive attack in the upper register with amazing ability to follow the most subtle string touches. And, we had classic American and British rock voicing covered in between.
A partial family portrait, though the family is too large for all to make it into the picture. At Club Amps"Our Standard Is Custom", as you will learn as you read on. In this picture you can see the Club Classic Stack mentioned above, a "Twin" blues amp, a "Little Monster" (50W 1x10 combo), a traditional "half stack" and more.
Club Amps are known for taking classic amp tone to a higher level. Rock musicians get a "rock solid" bottom end (never muddy) and articulate clarity even in overdrive. Our blues amps have a very special "smokey" blues timbre that's also great for classic rock, earthy country and many styles of jazz. For country artists we have great options for crisp, clean mids and highs with just a ton of punch, yet without being brittle. And, for "clean" and jazz a Club Amp with the standard output transformer offers sweet, rich, smooth articulate clarity. There's nothing "standard" about it. It sets the standard.
As you can see from the pictures, Club Amps aren't fancy. The focus is on being musical, strong, reliable and timeless. You won't make a fashion statement with a Club Amp, you'll make great music. Of course, simple elegance and "classic black" are always in fashion. Club Amps are designed and built for the club and studio musician. You know, you don't have roadies yet. You pack your own gear. As you cruise the site you will see that we believe volume control with speakers is a great way for the club or studio musician to sound their best no matter what the gig. This 1x12 combo is great for smaller gigs, practice or the studio, but stacked on a 1x15 extension cab it's able to create the volume you need for bigger gigs.
About this website
We build amps as our primary mission. You could say our permanent web site is still under construction, but our priority is on building amps. This site will be replaced at some point with a more sophisticated site. We are now "good-to-go" with credit card transactions and we can accept Paypal. Because everything we make is to customer criteria the normal "shopping carts" of e-commerce don't work very well. We're working on a best way to enter orders with custom criteria using an online shopping cart. When we figure that out or when we start offering "standard products" that's probably when we'll create a new site.
This site contains a lot of information, perhaps more than many musicians would want. But, over the years we've found that our happiest clients are the ones who have put some serious thought and research into what they "really" want. If you are not familiar with our company or our product I encourage you to start by taking a look at the "Products" page. Check out the product page first, then take a careful look at the About Us page and "Why Club Amps?" We've been building amps for a very long time. We make a really great amp. I hope we'll be building an amp for you soon.
