Smart Belle P-51
Our Flagship 100 watt amp
Imagine if you will the perfect mixture of 50's High Powered Tweed Twin and Early "Lindley" era 70's Dumble.
6L6 power section
Custom wound transformer and 4 6L6's provide more headroom than you will ever need while our Master volume can reign in the beast for reasonable stage volumes when needed.
Tube driven efffects loop
The P-51 features a tube driven effects loop with both send and return controls to accommodate any effects unit from your favorite vintage delay unit to a rack mounted reverb and all points in between. The loop can be switched out of the circuit completely or used as a gain stage even without effects plugged in.
Three way bright switch
A three way bright switch allows the user to have the bright switch off, engaged on the whole amp or just on the clean channel alone.
FET Boost
The P-51 features a FET boost that is foot-switchable and variable. There is a knob to control boost level.
Preamp boost
the preamp boost lights the amp up by removing some of the EQ circuit. The amp becomes even more touch sensitive.

Smart Belle SR-71
Not your Daddy's Solid State Amp
The Smart Belle SR-71 is a tube free amp with more tube tone than most of the amps on the market today.
The amp has the exact same layout as its big brother tube amps the P-51 and P-38. It has the same controls, switches, and even the full send and return D style loop.
What's different?
The amp use our patent pending technology that replaces both the preamp and power tubes in the amp itself without sacrificing one bit of tone or feel.
The first 25 were built by in Austin Texas and if you order now the serial number will be numbered 1 through 25 and your initials will be included in the number.
This amp is a game changer and we can't wait to share it with the World.

The Smart Belle P51
Lance Keltner, pro guitarist, gear developer and overall tone fanatic has played through a myriad of vintage amps and boutique amps over the years but was most inspired by the 70’s tones achieved by David Lindley. The explosive tones that came from a basic modified Fender circuit to create a Tweed Twin sound on steroids were the tones that really inspired Lance to play.
Lance has owned Dumble, Park, Marshall, Vox and Fender amps over the years but was most haunted by the tone he heard from a 70’s Dumble amp.
The thick incredible overdrive and ability to go from mean to clean with the volume knob on the guitar is the impetus behind the Smart Belle design
The amplifier features a 4 6L6 power section for incredible headroom, however the re-engineered master volume allows world class tone at bedroom levels.
The tube driven effects loop is built into the amplifier with both send and control returns. There is no more need to purchase an external tube driven loop since its built right in.
There is a three-button footswitch that allows for the switching of our three favorite functions: Channel, EQ defeat, and FET boost.
Speaking of the FET boost, it is not only foot-switchable but also completely variable as there is a dedicated knob for a variable level of the boost on the front panel.
The SMART BELLE P51 is our first offering and you will find there is nearly zero noise floor even at the highest gain settings.
For stage, or studio use, the SMART BELLE will deliver tones that will inspire.
Don’t be dumb…..
Play a Smart Belle.
