Rich and fat low end, and spongy sweet mids and highs for an overall pleasing tone. Like most Rivera amplifiers, features include two fully independent preamp channels, each with its own distinct voicing (British and American), and footswitchable boosts delivering four easy to dial-up sounds, preamp/power amp patch loop, and line out. This amp sounds much bigger than its size and is affordably priced. Get some “Chub” in your life!

Imagine having the modern lead sounds of Channel 2 of the Knucklehead Reverb, with another channel for the vintage clean rhythm and soulful blues sounds that Rivera amps are renown for - all in one convenient combo amp format. Exclusive Rivera features like the new "Scoop" switch on the lead channel allow access to two different lead EQs.

Lush 6 Spring Accutronics long-pan Reverb fills the generously sized cabinets with rich vibrant delays. Footswitchable Boosts on each channel give the player 4 different sounds at the tap of a toe. Our Focus control allows the adjustment of speaker damping creating a delicious and big bottom end. Our Presence control adds that final high-end EQ for shimmering brilliance without any harshness. both the Power and Standby switch are loaded on the front panel for easy operation.

Our rear panel is as loaded with as many features as the front. Rivera invented the Series effects Loop with level controls, and the Fandango has it conveniently located on the rear panel. Running virtually any normal speaker load is a snap with a selectable output impedance. 2 speaker jacks are provided for convenient use of extension enclosures. A line out is provided for slaving additional power amps or direct recording. A Vintage-Modern output tube mode switch allows halving the output power while sweetening the power amp harmonics.

Expanding the Fandango™ line, the Fandango 212 100-watt features the big, robust voice of two Celestion G12T-75s in a gorgeous and deep cabinet, and more than 100 watts. A fabulous five 12AX7 preamp section with a lead channel like the Knucklehead Reverb, coupled with a powerhouse of EL-34 Watts and Celestion speakers, housed in a lustful cabinet makes "Twin Killer" take on a new meaning. This amp is capable of handling practically any size gig.

Like almost all Rivera amps (except for TBR and M/S Series) the Preamp Tubes are powered by a DC Filament power supply, lowering all AC filament caused hum to disappear. This costly feature helps to ensure that in the case of need to service and change the 12AX7 tubes, a host of different tube manufacturer's devices may be used without the fear of increased hum (many 12AX7s have filament designs that cause hum in AC filament powered tube guitar amps, like most Fender, Marshall, and Mesa Boogie models).

Our 100+ watt Output Stage (they actually measure often in excess of 110 watts) features four matched EL-34 with a massive Output Transformer from the Knucklehead Reverb. An impedance selector located on the rear panel for 4, 8, or 16 ohm loads allows correct matching with any internal and external combination of speaker loads. Also, bottom end response is greatly enhanced by this massive piece of iron and copper audiophile quality Output Transformer. A Line output jack is also provided for sending line level signals to PA Mixers, Recording devices, or to slave to another power amp.

Another great Rivera feature is the Standby-Switch built into the speaker Jack #1. This means that in the instance of inadvertently operating the amp without a load plugged into the speaker jack, you will not fear damaging the Output Transformer and Tubes/Tube sockets. This also allows easy idle current measurement by a qualified technician when bias adjustment is necessary (all Rivera amps have an internal bias potentiometer provided).

Recalling the days of Roy Rodgers and his Palomino Horse "Trigger", our new Fandango ™ 212 series comes in a color scheme that Trigger would be proud of. Leather grained and supple beige Tolex covers the outside of the cabinet shell, and a palomino cream Tolex¨ accents the front grille. The matching grill cloth is a tri-tone brown and ox-blood color. Front "Plexi" panel and matching knobs are in a black and white color combination.

Rivera® is proud to release it’s first all Class A amplifier, the Venus™ 6.

Designed with magnificent tone and cool running in mind, this new amplifier embodies the Rivera ideal of fabulous sound with outstanding reliability.

All of the heat producing key components of our new Venus™ 6 amplifier have been mounted on a industrial sized heatsink and are on the outer surface of the chassis.

The USA made transformers are oversized and are rated for at least double the power output of the Venus 6.

Rivera is the first to make a small idle current adjustment possible with the Class A circuit, allowing a wider range of tubes to be set to the correct idle current, again, assisting in reliability and field maintenance.

Featuring a five 12AX7 tube preamp configuration with two independent Channels, each with it’s own footswitchable boost.

Channel 1 is a high gain an

d British inspired lead channel. Gobs of sweet sustain and loads of crunch can be dialed up easily. Channel 2 is a Rhythm and Blues channel, with a the best of classic 60’s American tone. Additional eq options include a bright switch and a selectable midrange notch.

Long pan Accutronics Reverb that is tube followed fills in the palette of tones with that sweet and spanky sounding delay.

An assignable and footswitchable effects loop that is fully buffered allows the interfacing with almost any kind of outboard effects device.

Coupled with a Class A Power Amplifier that is energized by 6V6GT (4) Tubes, this 35Watt RMS amp has enough headroom to cut most gigs, and with a fat bodied warmth that breathes like a Goddess of love that it is. 6V6GTs are well known to have spectacular tone, and excellent reliability, rivaling the classic yet unstable EL-84. A Vintage or Modern switch allows selection of full or half output power levels.

This is also the debut of the newly released Celestion G12-Heritage 30 in a Rivera Combo amplifier. Available in a 1-12” or 2-12” Combo configuration with Celestion G12-Heritage 30 speakers, or as a Top.

Sedona, the world's first all-tube Electric and Acoustic amp designed in collaboration with Nashville fingerpicking legend, Doyle Dykes. Accolades have been given to Sedona from all over the world.

Sedona features two independent and different preamplifier channels. Channel 1 is designed to produce optimum electric tones, clean or distorted. Channel 2 is tailored for electric or acoustic instruments. Sedona's specially designed Tweeter can be switched on or off to reproduce an acoustic instrument's sparkling harmonics on demand. In addition, the Tweeter's operation is linked to Channel 2 and is automatically disengaged when Channel 1 is selected.

An easy to use anti-feedback equalizer tunes out unwanted notes that would otherwise drone or squeal with sensitive acoustic Instruments. Switched from the front panel, the anti-feedback filter is also linked to Channel 2, and is automatically disengaged when using Channel 1. Reverb has never sounded sweeter, thanks to a long-pan, 6-spring Accutronics reverb.

Another Rivera exclusive feature, the Sedona's built-in rear-panel tube direct box output, includes a level control and a pull switch for ground lift. It sends only the Instrument's signal through an all-tube low-impedance, balanced-line XLR output invaluable on-stage or in the studio. An active effects loop with level controls allows for matching any outboard signal processor for optimum tone and minimum noise. An internal acoustically tuned high-fidelity speaker system consisting of a high-efficiency 12" JBL speaker reproduces full frequencies and gives great guitar tone. A single high-power Dome Tweeter adds sibilance and definition to the high-end strings, especially on nylon or gut string instruments. Separate tweeter and full-range speaker output jacks coupled to an impedance selector allow connection to a Sedona Extension Enclosure to cover larger venues.

Never before has an amp received so many rave reviews from guitar magazines. Guitar World as well as Guitar Player have used Sedona as their benchmark for testing other amps as well as many acoustic guitars. Guitar Shop Magazine said "This is undoubtedly the best acoustic/electric amp ever made.." Musician Magazine awarded Sedona "Amp of the Year."

Rivera pioneered the concept of a tube acoustic guitar amp, collaborating with the now-legendary Doyle Dykes to create the Sedona. Now we have brought this concept to a lighter, more compact amp: Introducing the Sedona Lite.

Doyle asked us for years to make a compact amp that would meet the weight requirements of the airlines and yet still deliver the tone that Rivera Sedona amps are famous for. It wasn't an easy task, and we knew we couldn't compromise on the tone or the quality.

Because Rivera Amplification is totally dedicated to the needs of musicians, the Sedona Lite is the result of years of consulting the leading acoustic guitar players as well as the top acoustic guitar makers for their input and consensus.

The Sedona Lite delivers 55 watts of dynamic EL-34 tube power, complemented by a full-range speaker system with a 12" neodymium rare-earth woofer and a special high-power, liquid-cooled dome tweeter.

Two independent channels of warm, glorious vacuum tube tone enhance and wrap every note you play in an envelope of light. Each channel has 3-band equalization, along with several exclusive tone-enhancing features, including a Notch switch that allows you to change the characteristics of the vital midrange frequencies, and a Bright switch to accentuate the harmonics.

Channel 1 features a special ultra-low-noise input that allows you to accept signals from balanced or unbalanced instruments or a microphone.

Instruments like the Taylor ES series as well as the new Martin guitars equipped with balanced outputs will be at their optimum when used in Channel 1 with the balanced input. Even if your guitar is an inexpensive model, using it with the Sedona Lite, will provide your sound with the best of tonal ingredients.

Channel 2 features a harmonically active unbalanced input to amplify either a passive or active instrument, including electric guitars.

Instruments with multiple outputs, such as the Fishman system that utilizes a microphone as well as a piezo transducer, can utilize both channels simultaneously to balance the level and tone between the two instrument signal sources.

For lounge and small-venue performers wanting to keep it simple, the Sedona Lite can act as a small P.A. system as well as an instrument amplifier. Just plug your microphone into Channel 1 and your instrument into Channel 2, and, voila, you have the warmth of tubes for your voice as well as your instrument.

In the age of digital effects, we are proud to provide the legendary, costly, analog Accutronics mechanical reverb as a standard feature. With its special deep, lush sonic character, it enhances your tones with a sweet and natural swell and decay.

With built-in parametric anti-feedback controls on the front panel, you can easily eliminate irritating low-frequency droning sounds as well as enhance the overall tone of your instruments.

Adding presence and shimmer to your instruments and voice is simple with the Presence control, conveniently located on the front panel.

Patching your accompanying signal processors was never easier with a full serial effects loop that features separate level controls for the send and return. (Paul Rivera invented this concept almost 25 years ago with his previous work designing amps for Fender and Yamaha.)

Recording your Sedona Lite or providing a live feed to a house P.A. system is a snap with the separate direct output with its own level control.

An extra rear-panel speaker jack is provided, so adding an external Sedona extension enclosure for those larger gigs takes only seconds.

All Rivera Amplification amps are built to robust military standards. We utilize the finest components, the same kind used in leading esoteric and exotic tube hi-fi systems. Our cabinets are made of solid-core plywood and are constructed with interlocking dado joints. Every one of our amplifiers is rigorously tested to ensure that it conforms to our exacting specifications. As a Rivera owner, you can expect years of tonal pleasure from your new Sedona Lite.

Our most requested feature for Musicians desiring to improve the transportability of our popular and award winning Tube Acoustic/Electric amp, the Sedona , was to make it into a separate Amp Top configuration. When playing in large venues, using a pair of our Sedona extension enclosures with either of the Sedona Tops, gives much more stage presence to the performer.  Also available in a 100w model, price £1671.

The Sedona Extension Enclosure uses the same speaker configuration as the Sedona Combo, but it's built closed back and ported, giving a larger bass response thereby adding body to the tone. It employs a 12" JBL speaker and specially designed tweeter.  Also available as a 15" JBL speaker model.

Sedona's cabinets are built of hardwood plywood and are finished in a Buckskin Brown Tolex, with three-tone brown grille cloth. A leather handle tops it off, with nickel corners for road protection.  

12" JBL: £749

15" JBL: £999

This 120 watt all-tube made in the USA head is truly a marvel. First off, the clean channel is bright and shiny, with bags of head room and push/pull bright and notch controls. The drive channel is a true beast of a rock amp, with a meaty, rich and harmonic distortion that shows exactly why all-tube preamp distortion can't be beat. The amp also features presence and 'Foundation' (a low-end boost) controls, which add up to this being a staggeringly versatile amp. New to the Rivera line up, and fresh from a fantastic review in Guitarist Magazine, I guarantee that this will become a classic.

Rivera excels again! With our development of a new Patent Pending 3 Channel Tri-Tone All-Tube circuit architecture, a player is given a range of incredible sounds. From shimmering and rich clean tones, to screaming high gain leads; impeccable note definition along with massive bottom end crunch tones can be reached. Three preamp Channels, powered with 6 12AX7s, work to establish each with distinctive voicing and levels. Long-pan Hammond Spring Reverb containing dual reverb controls, allows adjustment of different reverb levels for lead and rhythm. Footswitchable Boosts on several channels are featured, as well as an Effects Loop Bypass switch.

Lead/Crunch Channels include 3 bands of interactive passive tone controls. A Pull Scoop switch exists to deepen the midrange notch, and a Pull Bottom works for adding gobs of fatness on the low strings. For the Rhythm and Blues channel, 3 bands of equalization along with a Pull Bright Switch, and a Midrange Pull Notch switch, give a choice of British/Tweed or American Blackface tones. 6 footswitchable and distinct tones are easily accessible. Footswitchable functions are actuated with soft-touch momentary contact switches (especially quiet for studio recordings). Like all Rivera amps, the LED indicators on the front or rear panels correspond with the LED indicators on the Footswitch. Focus and Presence controls for the final equalization of the EL-34 (55 Watt has 2 EL-34s, and the 100 Watt has 4 EL-34s) power amp section round out the variables. 6L6GCs may be installed by just adjusting the bias (an internal adjustment). Power and Standby switches are on the front panel as well.  Shown here with it's matching 2x12" cab!

FIRST IN THE COUNTRY!  The new Mick Thompson KR-7 is the first signature model in the Knucklehead series.  Based on a KR100 Reverb, this slightly chunkier flavoured model takes the already formidable gain of the original and raises it to a whole new level, as well as keeping the shimmering California cleans intact - truly a marvel!

From world famous amp R&D guru Bruce Zinky comes the Blue Velvet, his fantastic 25w dual-channel valve amp. This US made valve amp is fitted with a cutsom Eminence 12" speaker and it's smooth EL84-powered circuit has won it many admirers from those looking for a small gigging/studio blues amp. Features footswtichable reverb and channel changing, tube driven reverb and a very fetching crushed velvet finish!

This Blues Junior-beating combo is the last word for someone looking for a great small valve combo for gigs or studio recording, or a really great home practice amp.  Thirteen watts of pure valve tone, this little baby can wind up surprisingly loud if you want it to - all you need is a decent strat and an old tubescreamer and you're ready for any pub gig!  It has three controls - Volume, Gain, and Tone - a custom Zinky speaker, and a 1x5881 & 1x 12AX7 valve combination.

As I write this I've been playing these new amps all afternoon, and I'm totally blown away.  The clean channel on this 50w combo goes from classic big bold british to an incredibly twangy Fender tone almost just by pushing the bright switch!  What's even more amazing is that the second channel pumps out the greatest Plexi tone you've ever heard - all the way up to a really tight and beefy saturated distortion.  On top of this you've got two footswitchable boosts, as well as footswitchable spring reverb on each channel.  I can't say enough good things about these amps, they live up to all the hype, you have to hear this!

Used by Jimmy Page on the first Led Zep record, Supro amps have long been unavailable except to vintage collectors with a lot of money to spare! Now thanks to Bruce Zinky, these amps are making a comeback, and are still true to the original designs and renowned tone. The Supro Model 50 first made its debut almost 70 years ago. The original featured a single volume control and produced about 6 Watts of power through one power tube and a 10” speaker.  This little beauty is 13 watts rom a custom-designed 10" speaker, with Volume and Tone controls.  Pictured here with optional external speaker cab.

Both 25 and 50- watt models feature four inspiring modes from two oppositie personalities spread across two fully independent channels. If Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde had to share one platform, this would be it.

Say you’re a traditionalist: Select Clean and Blues for your two footswitchable sounds. Or, if you’re addicted to Gain, choose Crunch and Burn. Then stand back as the well-mannered soul of Dr. Jeckyll morphs into the maniacal Mr. Hyde, hardcore beast. Most important is the classic authenticity of all these iconic tones. No matter what your stylistic destination, the Express will take you there… Fast.

Up front, that number “5” indicates the low power, single-ended magic of pure Class A. The “25” and “50” refer to the rated push-pull output. Together, these make up Duo-Class™ our patented new power circuit, the first to offer both single-ended and push-pull configurations in the same amplifier.

But even that’s not the last stop. Each channel is further equipped with its own Contour depth control for added shaping that’s both assignable and footswitchable. Used subtly, Contour adds a halo of depth and chime to gleaming clean sounds. Higher Contour settings, especially in Crunch and Burn, take you into Recto™ turf, tight, huge and menacing.

Don’t be fooled by their compact size: most players mistake the little 5:25 with its ten-inch speaker for a 1x12. You’ll be shocked when you hear this little monster! And for truly stunning performance, take the 5:50. Both 1x12 and 2x12 pull like a freight train, locomotive torque.

This is the only one we have at this amazing price, so call today!

These are getting harder and harder to find nowadays -  the Mesa Boogie F-50 was one of the flagship models of the Boogie range, and with good cause - two channels of classic Boogie blues and crunch in one neat little package.  Won't be long until finding these will be a thing of the past! 9/10 condition, very clean!

This approximately 30-year old AC30 was owned by a record company employee who has been a good customer of ours for years - this amp was actually given to him a good few years ago by Lenny Kravitz - some people have all the luck!  This grey control plated AC30 has the original Vox speakers and sounds fantastic, exactly what you want to hear when you wind it up and get the valves really working.  It's got a few cosmetic marks and rips to the vinyl, but mechanically this amp is in great shape and has got many years of gigging in it's future!

 Your search for the Holy Grail of VOX tone ends here. To commemorate the 50th Anniversary of VOX guitar amplifiers, we are pleased to introduce the latest in the new Heritage Collection range of hand-wired amplifiers– the AC30H2. Rather than just a typical reissue where a vintage amp is dusted off and copied, this amplifier, like the others in the Heritage Collection, transports you through the golden age of VOX tone, combining the prized EF86 preamp channel of 1958 with the 1963 Top Boost channel all in one amplifier. Add in some modern tone shaping control enhancements and the result is perhaps the finest VOX amplifier in the company’s 50 year history.
The EF86: The magical VOX tone

What is it that makes EF86 based VOX amplifiers some of the most collectible in the world? Maybe it’s the way the amp naturally overdrives, almost breathing with a life unto its own. Dynamic changes in pick attack almost seem to be anticipated before you make them. Or maybe it’s the raw power of the creamy distortion as you crank the amp all the way up and slam down on a power chord. Whatever it is, there is an undeniable magic about this period of VOX amplification. An age when the most simple of circuits produced some of the most complex of tones. Now in short supply, the EF86 Pentode tube is at the heart of this elusive tone.
Fifty years later, the magic returns.

The finishing touches. Great care and research went into the cosmetics for this special amplifier to meld vintage correct attributes with some modern revisions. These touches include a vintage “TV Front” cabinet, pre-1960 logo placement, and a vintage inspired cream vinyl covering.

For many years now AER has been the first choice in acoustic amplification for most players in the know.
If you want clean, accurate reproduction of your instrument’s voice without having to drag around a big heavy cabinet, this is the one for you - in fact those jolly clever chaps at AER will even include a deluxe flight bag.
Forget the shrill, hard sound of the competition and get something that actually sounds acoustic... but louder!
