Welcome to HEADSMASHER. I make valve amplifiers and pick ups for guitars. Over 30 years experience in engineering, as a cabinet maker, in electronics and as a musician as well as owning many amps and guitars (and how i wish i'd kept them all) puts me in a position to create and manufacture amps and pick ups that ooze and drip with tone. I use the very best components sourced from around the world from hand made capacitors to fabricating my own chassis to hand winding pick ups which all add to up to hand made products that are guaranteed for life! The workshop is fully equipped so I can make most components in house. Modifications, customisation, service and repair to all makes of valve amp which means great tone and peace of mind.

There's a tun of info on the "other stuff" pages that every guitarist should know and links to other very interesting websites
The name HEADSMASHER comes from an Amazonian tribe that wont have anything to do with the outside world, in fact they won't have anything to do with any of the surrounding tribes either! If anybody ventures near they get their heads smashed hence the surrounding tribes call this cutoff tribe "The Headsmashers". They are simply unconcerned with what is going on outside of their own little world. They struck a chord with me. Long live the HEADSMASHERS.
