Now.... Buy THD Direct in Australia from Gilroy Guitars


Gilroy Guitars has been distributing 'THD Electronics' Guitar Amps and Accessories in Australia since 2003. Up to that time, THD had manufactured 'Bassman' clones, which ceased production in the early '90's, but had continued to manufacture their range of the widely acclaimed 'Hot Plate' Attenuators.

The UniValve guitar amp 'head' was the first of the new amps made by THD, and it was a super groundbreaker, in that it was the first production metal-cage amp, since then, many other amp-makers have followed THD's lead. The UniValve included several unheard of innovations, eg. No-bias-requirement tube-swapping, full power to all output windings, built-in Hot Plate power attenuator...etc...

So when a barely known amp won the first ever Guitarist Magazine 'Gold Award', a lot of you were asking ......... "Who the hell is THD?" Now known by leading guitarists around the world, THD is often credited with starting the American 'boutique' amplifier market, and has long been one of the biggest and most influential cult names in guitar amplification.

“Our amplifiers are designed from the ground up to be of the absolute highest quality and, above all, with absolute consistency" ....... THD's founder, Andy Marshall.

THD has continued in the same innovative manner, their BiValve and Flexi-50 amps, Yellow Jackets, Quintet Tone Curve products to name a few..

In order to make THD products more accessible to Australian guitarists, we are now selling direct to the end-user - please 'Contact Us' for your specific needs, or just browse the links on the left....

The individual amp pages have links to THD's site for full product specs and sound files etc...

The THD line is the brainchild of Andy Marshall who I met through my good mate Ed DeGenero (a fellow Steinberger GS player). This particular amp etc…..

Edward DeGenaro has worked as a “hired gun” guitarist and session player, his resume as musician or engineer includes Bob Dylan, Craig Erickson, Elliott Sharpe, Henry Kaiser, David Byron Band, Accept, Hammerhead, Alcatraz, producers David Rosenthal (Rainbow, Robert Palmer) and Roy Thomas Baker (Queen, Cars), and work on various feature movies, TV commercials and major labels such as EMI, Atco and Atlantic.

The NEW Univalve.net - new THD Forums - Univalve, BiValve, Flexi 50 Technical Discussions.

Unofficial THD Flexi, UniValve, BiValve Thread - thegearpage.net - lots of THD info, user advice etc...

The forum at www.univalve.net is sorely missed, as it was a boon to those 'into' tube substitution, as well as all things THD. Fortunately I took a few excerpts from those pages back when - read it HERE - also included is a 'recommend' list of tubes from Andy Marshall, CEO of THD.
