Matchless is one of those companies that has created a very distinct “mojo” out there amongst guitarists. In the past, they have been a catalyst for a “boutique amp revolution”. Their DC-30 and Chieftain amps have become known as industry standard equipment and have even been immortalized by the amp modeling generation, from Line 6 all the way to Rocktron.

Matchless Avalon 30 Head and Cab

Being a guy that is, in a word, spoiled by having amazing amps at my disposal, I’ve always had a soft spot for Matchless amps. I have fond memories of first watching Jimmy Page use the DC30 model and then seeing the Tea Party’s Jeff Martin pummel through a stack of the same model during the Trip Tych tour.

Matchless Lightning Reverb: LG-112 Combo

I’ve always been a sucker for a nice, lush, clean Class A tone. If you know the lineage of this company, there is nothing else like a Matchless amp. This little number packs a very loud 15 watts Class A into a single 12” combo…in plain terms it’s enough to go against a drummer in a Roots Rock, Country, Blues type of setting.
