A great guitar amp can never be all things to all players.
Like the truly classic guitar amps in history, each model in the Hayden Classic range sets out to do a job and do it properly. From the moment you plug in, a Hayden makes its presence felt with a strong and unmistakable core tone that remains in tact no matter how hard the amplifier is driven. No endless tweaking of controls - your new Hayden's going to sound great straight out of the box.
Drawing on the classic valve amp designs of the past, Hayden Classic Series amps add just the features a modern guitarist needs like valve switching, pick-up matching and the greater reliability that comes through refined circuit design, and leaves out the superfluous gimicks that often stand in the way of great tone. And through the careful combination of custom-wound transformers, defence-standard components and elegant signal topology, Hayden delivers a performance experience in which the player feels unusually 'connected' to the sound, and the volume control on the guitar is all that's needed to move from clean through to crunch and overdriven sounds.
Hayden amps are hand-wired, with exacting specifications including non-ferrous stainless steel chassis construction, hand-machined gold turret tags, ceramic valve bases, engraved front panels and marine quality birch ply cabinets.
So the question isn't do you need a Hayden amp, it's which Hayden amp do you need?
