Achillies Amplification

What happens when you run a $3,000 fuzz pedal into an already cranked 6V6 tube amp? 🔥
The Achillies Apollo Quad is already producing plenty of its own natural saturation here, running through our Phoenix 4x10 loaded with four Jensen P10/40 Blackbirds.
Then we bring in the Cesar Diaz Texas Square Face to push it even harder — followed by the Strymon Volante Magnetic Echo Machine, which adds a completely different dimension to the sound.
The pedals aren't creating the foundation of the tone. The Apollo Quad is already doing that. They're taking an already cranked tube amp somewhere else.

Building amplifiers is one thing. Sitting down with world-class musicians and learning from them is another.
Thanks to and for spending the day at the Achillies workshop testing amps, comparing speakers, and helping refine a few ideas. Even after years of building, there's always something new to learn.
A great day chasing great tone.

⚡️ Orion 25 Combo ⚡️

Fresh off the bench — rich cocoa finish, wheat grille cloth, and vintage-inspired styling wrapped around the unmistakable Achillies voice.

The Orion 25 delivers touch sensitivity, warmth, and clarity with enough punch for stage or studio, all in a compact combo format built by hand in Australia 🇦🇺

Every detail matters — from the cabinet craftsmanship to the final voicing.

20 years ago, Achillies Amps started with a passion for handcrafted tone, high voltage, and uncompromising sound.

What began in 2006 as a vision to build amplifiers with soul has grown into two decades of custom builds, loud stages, studio sessions, and an incredible community of players who believe tone still matters.

To everyone who has supported us over the years — thank you.

This anniversary belongs to every guitarist, musician, customer, dealer, and friend who became part of the journey.

Here’s to 20 years of valves, volume, and analog rebellion.
