The Matchless HC-30 Amp is a boutique amp that was originally designed in 1989. During this time, Matchless Amplifiers decided they needed to design and built an amp that would, simply put, be the absolute best guitar amp available anywhere.
To get the best input on how to design this amp, the designers went straight to the best source available: professional musicians. These musicians made it clear that the best amp would have to be highly durable while at the same time providing versatility. It would need to be light and small enough to travel with while providing the standards one would expect from a studio amp. Class A design was a given, and it would have to be completely hand wired to exact specifications. Only the best materials were to be used, and none of the standard shortcuts were to be used.

The CHUTE boutique hand wired 35 watt tube amp, the CC-04, is a boutique amp used by the likes of Warren Haynes of the Allman Brothers Band and Chad Kroeger, the lead guitarist of Nickelback. The CHUTE CC-04 is a hand made, hand wired amp that was first designed and built by Carl Chute. In fact, Chute is solely responsible for the CC-04 amp. 
The CHUTE CC-04 35 watt tube amp, as the name says, pulls 35 watts of power. This class A amp is powered by four JJ 12 AX7 preamp tubes and two JJ EL34 power tubes. The preamp is split into A and B switches that are controlled by a foot switch and each channel features two gain controls. This creates a very versatile amp. The poweramp uses cathode biasing, which gives it the ability to create a very smooth sound. It also features a 14 gauge aluminum chassis and a high dielectric strength fiberglass tag board. To help reduce noise, the CC-04 uses ultra-fast recovery diodes for its rectifiers and metal film resistors. (more...)
The VVT Lindy Fralin Boutique Combo Tube Amp, made by VVT, was created to the exact specifications of Lindy Fralin. Fralin created this amp to be the perfect device, and it’s the only amp he will use. It’s also one of the few amps to receive a perfect ten rating by users on Harmoney Central, so it’s not just Fralin who loves it. 
The Lindy Fralin Amp can be switched from fixed biased to cathode biased very easily, making it one of the most versatile boutique amps out there. If you’re going to play at a low volume, switch it to cathode bias. If you’re playing in a larger setting or need to be louder, switch it over to fixed bias, where the amp will give you some great, clean tones at a louder volume. As you can see, this amp is perfect for smaller gigs, but it can also get the job done for larger engagements, too. Even better, it is incredibly light (weighing in at just a bit over 40 pounds) and doesn’t take up that much space. (more...)
