About

Born from a Passion for Vintage Sounds

Allen Amplification was more than just a company to its founder, David Allen. It was the result of a lifelong love affair with the legendary tones of vintage Fender® amps. Fueled by an engineer's mind and a musician's heart, David meticulously designed and crafted amplifiers that captured the essence of those classic sounds, adding his own pragmatic enhancements and player-friendly features.

A Legacy of Hand-Crafted Excellence

In 1998, David's passion materialized into Allen Amplification. Initially offering DIY kits to empower the builder community, he soon expanded to a full lineup of hand built amplifiers, each one meticulously hand-wired point-to-point in the USA using top-quality components. His obsession with detail and commitment to tone resonated with discerning musicians, making Allen Amps a sought-after name in the amplifier world.

Carrying the Torch, Preserving the Tone

In 2022, David made the bittersweet decision to retire, entrusting his legacy to a passionate team:  Alan Forinash, Tommy Thompson, and Chetan Kamdar. We, like countless others, were captivated by David's dedication and the magic he poured into his amps. Having spent months learning from the master himself, we understand the responsibility that comes with carrying the Allen Amps torch.
