SWELL Amplification

I have the best customers. I was just thinking yesterday, hmm, maybe I should get some T-shirts made. Lol. Then these were waiting for me when I got to the shop this morning. Thanks Mike!

The man in the image (also on the pedal/amp PCBs etc) is my grandfather, Lee Hunt, at his radio intercept station in Liangshan, China, 1945. He’s the reason I got into building things and is the spirit behind everything at Swell Amplification.

First Dulcet 30 from batch 2 🔥

What do you all think of the silver lettering? I’m going to try a shade or two darker on the next build.

This one has the new k**b design. They’re a bit smaller, light up just a little more, and are substantially easier to manufacture. As always the new process took a lot of trial and error to and the jigs themselves took 5 times as long to make. But soon I will be able to offer a couple different k**b options.

The old growth flame maple was a gift from my friend Mr. Gil Yaron.

Wrapping up the last two Dulcet 30 pre-orders today! Starting next week, we’ll open orders for serial numbers 12 and up.

I’m retooling a few things for Batch #2 and expect to begin shipping by the end of February.

For this batch, I’m thinking about adding a new color option for the front panel and k**b illumination. The current color is **Phthalo Green**, which often appears as turquoise in photos.

Have a color suggestion? Please comment with the color name or hex code. I’ll create renderings in Fusion and share them here with a poll.

Halfway through the first batch. Burning these two in today.
