Torres is a UK Company set up in 1995. It has workshops in Pinner, North London and operates mainly in the British and European markets.

The company designs and manufactures custom all-valve, point-to-point wired guitar amplifiers.

A specialty is the supply of build-your-own amp kits for the enthusiast. A comprehensive range of designs is available from 1W practice amps, through single-ended class A Boxers, single channel amps up to the top-of-the-range twin channel designs.

As well as selling a wide range of standard ready-built valve amplifiers, Torres also offers unique, custom-built boutique amps.

In addition Torres supplies:

• hand built high quality cabinets
• power breaks
• guitar kits
• amp modification kits
• speakers
• books
• pickups
• valves and valve testing
• component parts of all sorts
• amplifier repair services.

A huge success in the past few years has been the training courses where you learn how to build your own amplifier

Torres prides itself in the quality of its products and individual customer attention.

At Torres our aim is simple - to supply and build the best quality guitar amplifiers to your specification. We will NOT compromise on Tone. We do NOT use mass production techniques. We do NOT use printed circuit boards. In short, we don’t cut corners so you don’t have to cut corners on your sound.

Torres has been supplying and customising equipment for guitarists in Europe for over 15 years . Our customers and the press have great things to say obout our products and service - see Reviews

A note about mass production. Big companies sell guitar amps relatively cheaply. This means employing mass production techniques, which inevitably limits the range of choice available and makes the ability to customise the design to your personal requirements difficult. That is where we come in. Many of our designs are intended to modify existing amplifiers, ‘blueprinting’ certain parts of the circuit, redesigning badly thought out sections, or simply upgrading the quality of the components used. The kits available are the distillation from many years of working with valve amplifiers and knowing what makes them sound a whole lot better than they do straight out of the box, and often for surprisingly little money or effort.

A note on doing-it-yourself. You don’t need a Degree in Electronics to start customising your gear or even to build your own amp - just a bit of knowledge (see our books and literature and please read our SAFETY NOTE) a soldering iron and a handful of components. Whatever you need - we either have it or can get it for you.

Finally, a ‘thank you’ to all our customers for their ongoing support. As ever, if you don’t see exactly what you want, send us an e-mail or give us a call - happy playing. You can also twitter us @torresampsuk
