Description

The Magnatone Starlite is a compact, low-powered valve combo that packs a bigger punch than its power rating would suggest. Ideal in the studio, office or bedroom, the Starlite combines classic American tones and vintage style.

Under the hood, the Starlite features a single 6V6 in the power section and a 12AX7 in the preamp section. The tone knob boasts a uniquely designed mid-cut below 12 O’clock settings, allowing it to cover both typical “black panel” and “tweed” tones. A negative feedback feature allows for enhanced gain control making the Starlite incredibly versatile and capable of rivalling anything in the small amp category.

Amps

Guitar amps cover everything needed to amplify, shape, and project your guitar sound, from small practice setups to full stage and studio rigs. In this category you’ll find combo amps, separate amp heads and speaker cabinets, covering valve, solid-state, and hybrid designs, each offering a different feel and response. You’ll also see modelling and digital amps, built-in effects, footswitches, attenuation solutions, replacement speakers, valves, and essential accessories to keep an amp performing at its best. Whether you’re chasing pristine cleans, classic crunch, or modern high-gain tones, guitar amps and related gear are all about finding the right balance of power, tone, and control for the way you play.

Combo Amps

Combo amps combine an amplifier and speaker into a single, self-contained unit, making them a practical and popular choice for many players. They’re easy to transport, simple to set up, and available in a wide range of power ratings, from small practice amps to powerful stage-ready models. Combo amps come in valve, solid-state, hybrid, and digital designs, often with built-in effects and tone controls. Their all-in-one nature makes them ideal for home use, rehearsals, recording, and live performance where convenience and reliable tone matter.
