Germino
#1 Germino dealer year after year
Fat Sound Guitars' relationship with Greg Germino spans the greater part of the last two decades. He is one of the world's foremost authorities on Vintage Marshall amps. After years as a vintage Marshall repairman and a stint at Mojo Musical Supply, Greg now builds his wonderful amps entirely by hand, one at a time, right here in North Carolina with one goal in mind: To build the finest vintage mid 60's JTM45 and late 60's Plexi style Marshall amplifiers with extremely high-quality, period-correct components.
Greg continues to build each amplifier that bears his name in person, one at a time to the highest quality standards I have ever seen in an amplifier.
From the UK sourced, original style Black Bat switches to the "cheese head" transformer bolts and custom hand-made impedance and voltage selector knobs Greg has spared no expense and left no stone unturned to bring Classic Marshall loyalists the finest amps available.
Built one at a time personally by Greg Germino in his Saxapahaw, NC workshop.... each Germino amplifier is an heirloom piece in the best Classic Marshall tradition.

"This particular Amp is the best sounding Germino I have ever played. I was totally stunned by it. Thanks to Greg Germino for making an early morning trip from Saxapahaw with his '58 Plain Top to visit Fat Sound and record a few tracks for us!" Stu Carter - Fat Sound Guitars Our best selling Germino model offered here in a 212 combo configuration with period-correct colors including gold tipped handle and gold vent grille. Tremendous tones ranging from flawless 60's British cleans that are very Hendrix-ian in nature to modest, but smooth and creamy overdrive all available via your pick attack or the guitar's volume control. In 212, dual Greenback configuration I was also able to achieve super thick crunch tones that made me want to riff Classic Early 70's Rock for days. Lead time for build after reservation: 4-6 weeks Greg Germino has tirelessly searched for period-correct cosmetic components including pan head transformer bolts, Drake replica transformers, etc.... Tube/Solid State rectification switch can either be located on the face plate for easiest access or on the side of the chassis with access via a rear panel port for a more period-correct faceplate look The early plexi circuit as used in the Classic 45 is carried over in the Club 40.
