Hunt Amplification

If you love your amp then you will take it to Lowell at Hunt Amplification. He is super knowledgeable and knows just how to make your amp sing again. I expected to pay a lot more than what he charged me. Lowell got my Super Reverb reissue sounding better than brand new! He’s an honest guy doing great work. Such a difference over other music stores that do repair! I also like that I can take my guitars to B&D in the front of the office and get the same level of craftsmanship and service.

New to the area and was pleasantly surprised with the amp shop. Great knowledge and super nice and helpful. Glad I found it!

Like everyone else stated, look no further. Don’t waste your time anywhere else. This guy is a genius. Others have had my amp for 5 weeks and couldn’t find the issue. Lowell had the amp apart while I was standing there and had it fixed in a day. And to top it off, he is reasonably priced.

What can I say, Hunt Amplification is one of if not the best place to get your amp serviced. I drove 100 miles from Prescott because I know Lowell is the best in the business. I just recently had him look at my 1964 Fender Twin Reverb which is in near perfect condition and untouched. It started making some noise so I brought it to Lowell @ Hunt Amplification. Lowell was very honest with me and figured out I just had a noisy reverb driver. He swapped it for a matching NOS tube that he luckily had in stock and the amp didn’t make any unwanted noise. Lowell also checked the bias and gave the amp a once over for no extra charge. The amp works great now and is still completely original. I cant wait to bring him my 1979 Marshall JMP for a recap. Thanks again Lowell!

I went to Hunt Amplification and met with Lowell to discuss changing my tubes to NOS tubes. I talked with Lowell for a bit about my needs and he suggested and tried several tubes before going with what sounded best. He also suggested some further modifications. I took that advice with the caveat that I love my amp so was a bit nervous about making changes. He told me he would reverse the minor changes if I did not like the sound. I did like the changes. My AC30 sounds even better. Also, I was able to keep changed components so if I ever wanted to sell the amp it could be stock again. I am a very happy customer. Lowell does what he says he is going to do when it comes to customer satisfaction. Top notch.

Met Lowell through Billy and quickly learned this dude knows his shit about amps and effects. He and Billy also built the most kick ass distorting pedal I’ve ever heard. Highly recommended. I will never go anywhere else for amp repair or amp advice.

Let me tell you people something… Lowell is the best. I would never take my amps anywhere else. I took my old 67′ Fender Vibro Champ to him for a total overhaul and it sounds awesome! He did it quick and for a reasonable price. He knows exactly what he’s doing. I also had a 90’s Tweed Fender Bronco solid state that sounded too bright and after a some adjustments it sounded just as I wanted it. I was blown away! Plus he’s such a nice guy!

I found Lowell though Billy at B&D Guitar Repair before he moved his operation to B&D’s location

I have two vintage Marshall JMP 45W heads.
One was made in 76 that did NOT have the vintage tone.
I had two other people work on it. Both with very good knowledge of my amps.
I had them install Mercury Magnetic transformer, power supply and choke. They also attempted to modify the circuit to match the circuit of an amp to match that of a loaner amp that possessed the tone I wanted. The loaner amp was my new baseline for tone.
We even tried to source the exact cable that was used in loaner amp to make sure everything was the same. Nothing worked.
I ended up buying another JMP head made in 78 (same year as the loaner). The tone was close to my wants, but still not as good.
Enter Lowell.
I took both heads to him. After several conversations I decided I did not want two amps that sounded the same and decided to let him have free reign on the 76.
He made it so it sounds like the higher gain JCM800. AWESOME!
For the 78, Lowell made it sound better than the loaner amp!
Lowell is now my amp guy! He is honest and very easy to talk too. He knows his stuff and what to do to get every bit of tone out of an amp tailored to your desires.
Next on his bench is my British made VOX AC30-​TB that is missing «something».
I KNOW you will not be disappointed with anything he does.

I had Lowell repair a few amps that died over the years. He gave an initial assessment and quick turnaround on my amps; a solid state and few tube amps. Very reasonable pricing, honesty (he doesn’t try to add additional parts to the bill), and his love for his craft makes him my go to guy for all my amps (and pedals)!
