Hand-built in Liverpool · Served loud
Part headphone amp. Part glorious distortion machine. Entirely unlike anything else on your pedalboard.
Chilled. Fried. Grilled.
Tiny amp. Massive personality.
Behind the tin is a proper low-noise, high-input-impedance guitar preamp, designed by an electronics engineer and built one at a time in the Spamp Cave.

Spamp Origins · Born 2001
This is the can that started it all. Conceived with fried eggs and born in 2001, THE GRAND SPAMP was an op-amp based design that evolved over time into the JFET design of its offspring.
An unloved child, THE GRAND SPAMP spent most of his existence in the dark recesses of a forgotten drawer. Now he is enjoying a happy retirement in pride of place on the best shelf in the Spamp Cave.
HAPPILY RETIRED ★ THE ORIGINAL ★

Origin story / Liverpool, England
It began after a gig, a late-night SPAM sandwich and a flash of inspiration. An empty tin became the first Spicy Amplifier. Years later, Spamp Man returned to the bench and brought it to the world.
