The numbers on the amps do not reflect order of preference. While these do belong to a legendary Artist we cannot yet say it is just yet but please stay tuned as we will announce it soon!

We would like to send out a big 'Thank You' to Brad Paisley, Chase Bryant, Lindsay Ell, Steve Davis & the entire crew & family for the amazing hospitality this weekend. Can't say enough good things & I encourage everyone to check out the tour, amazing musicianship & a great show all the way around! - Trace Davis, President / Founder

V-Plex 50/100 Watt! - If you want the Sound of Classic Rock, Fire’y Blues, Modern Country but with the versatility to nail the perfect Sweet Spot in a Strat, Les Paul, Tele, 335, PRS & More then this is it! Creamy or Edgy, Smooth or Aggressive it’s all here along with an incredibly ‘easy-to-play’ feel! Same amp used by Joe Perry of Aerosmith / Hollywood Vampires, Charlie Starr of Blackberry Smoke & More! And we thought it might look cool in black-&-white photo! (lol) Have an awesome day Tone-Hounds & please feel free to share as you like or tag a friend!

From a Facebook Post - I am not sure where to begin but it has occurred to me that we need to clarify a few things so please bear with me gang. In no particular order - We receive a great deal of correspondence from players looking for free advice on how they should go about getting the tone they are looking for with an amp made by another manufacturer. This comes in the form of asking how to Mod one’s amp, questions on the one’s over all rig, tubes, speakers, cables & so on.
To field one’s question(s) properly requires my asking several questions, your answers usually spur on more questions & the idea is to for me to determine what the course of action is that will best meet your needs. Whether it’s a phone call or several emails back-&-forth the average time invested on our part is approximately 30-45 minutes of time. Unfortunately this is not something that I can do free-of-charge. If I make an exception for one I have to make an exception for everyone & we cannot make a living working for free.
1.) In the interests of adding some clarity there is no gray area for folks;
A.) Questions pertaining to new or used Voodoo Production Models are more than welcome.
B.) Questions on Amps we have Modified in the past are also welcome but we ask that you visit ‘Voodoo Verify’ & enter the amp’s Serial Number into Voodoo Verify’ as 95% of all amps we have Modified, Serviced or Repaired are listed including dates & description of work performed (http://voodooamps.com/home/AboutUs/VerifyyourVoodoo/tabid/1016/Default.aspx).
C.) A & B are ‘free-of-charge’ but we kindly as respectfully ask that you use the resource wisely as there is only so much of me to go around (just being honest).
2.) Tonal Consultation - We do offer a Tonal Consultation Service that is available to everyone, which is $62.50 billed in (15) minute intervals or $250.00 an hour. We accept Debit or Credit Cards in the form of Visa, MasterCard, Discover & Amex. To schedule a Consultation Call you may PM us here on Facebook or through the contact page of our website (http://voodooamps.com/home/ContactUs.aspx) I would put the email address here but the 'bots' bombard us with spam-emails (no one likes spam--lol)
I realize this may be met with varying opinions by some but please know I am not trying to be disrespectful in any way & it is not my intention to offend anyone, truly & sincerely. At present I am working (7) days a week to catch up what remains of our backlog. IE: we have a select few Mods & (3) Hand Wired amp models that requires myself working on them exclusively. Our Production Line demands a great deal of my time & once the a fore mentioned orders are completed I will be dedicating my time to our current Production Line, going on the road with Artists & visiting Dealers.
We will continue to post updates-&-updates here much the same as we always have & I will chime in as time allows. I do very much enjoy interacting with you all & I cannot thank you enough for your understanding & continued support, it means the world to all of us as we put our hearts-&-soul into everything we do! Thanks so very much gang & I hope every one of you is doing well!! Back to soldering I go! :) – Trace Davis, President / Founder of Voodoo Amps

Blackberry Smoke is one of the select few that has forged their own unique sound. Founded in 2001 & often described as Southern Rock meets Country Rock, their live shows are nothing short of stunning! Having toured with such acts as Zac Brown Band, Eric Church, ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gov't Mule & any more the band is quickly gaining popularity as one of the fore most touring acts on the scene today.
Blackberry Smoke released their fifth studio album "Like an Arrow" on October 14th, 2016 via their own record label, 3 Legged Records. The album landed at #1 on the US Billboard Country & Americana / Folk charts as well as the UK Rock & Independent Albums charts during release week. Past record labels include Southern Ground & Rounder Records.
Tone Hound - Paul Jackson has a great collection of guitars favoring Les Pauls as of late with P90's & P100's as well as Vintage Style 'PAF' humbuckers. Voodoo Amps President / Founder Trace Davis specifically designed a new circuit for Paul to match his playing style & use of vintage style pickups. Trace installed the circuit into a Marshall JCM800 2204 50 watter (see photo) complete with EL34 Power Tubes & 12AX7 Preamp Tubes.
Buy the records, go see the band live - you won't be sorry! Amazing musicianship & amazing song writing by a great Rock-N-Roll band from Georgia! 'Paul Jackson & Charlie Starr are one of the best guitar-teams I've ever worked with & its an honor to welcome Mr Paul Jackson to the Voodoo Amps Family.' - Trace Davis, President / Founder
