Every Dexter amp is hand-built at their shop in Monrovia, California using only the best quality components, including tested-vintage and NOS US-made tubes. These amps are based on classics, but they’ve been redesigned for the modern musician. Whether you are playing live, recording, or just enjoying lush tube tones at home, Dexter amps accurately capture the warmth and feel of handcrafted amps from the ‘50s and ‘60s. But they've made some updates that give these amps even more versatility and functionality. But mainly, they design amps with tone that will blow your mind… at any volume. 

Currently, the flagship amp, the Dexter Deluxe combines classic Tweed tones with modern improvements for an amp that is perfectly suited to home, studio, or stage. Featuring 15 watts of pure tube power, the Deluxe allows you to capture late ‘50s grit and articulation as well as British-style power and saturation. The Dexter Deluxe is the perfect all-around amp. 

The Dex-Tone control adds amazing flexibility to the Dexter Deluxe. Instead of a boring tone control that just rolls off treble, the Dex-Tone control allows you to shape the character of the amp by adding gain and cutting low frequencies as you turn it up. This gives the Deluxe a tighter, more focused, more British tone and feel. At low volumes, the Dex-Tone control adds grit and texture, but at high volumes is where it really shines. Fender Tweed-style amps tend to get bass-heavy at high volumes and the result is a mushy, farty mess. By turning up the Dex-Tone control at higher volumes, you roll off those problematic low frequencies allowing the amp to become punchy, powerful, and articulate even at max volume.
