Our Story

Pro Amp Solutions was born out of a love for music. We are enthusiastic about helping musicians create their amplified guitar tone. Our skills are honed by an insatiable desire to constantly learn and get better at our craft. Listening to artists and working to manifest what they want, what they hear in their head is our ultimate objective. The experience of working with hundreds of musicians and their amplifiers over the years has been a privilege.

Incredible pieces of history have worked their way through our hands, and it is an honor to not only restore vintage amplifiers, but to put them back into active use making music. We pride ourselves in the highest quality craftsmanship; steeped in art, science, and professional design engineering experience. Our reputation as Southern California’s premier amplifier service center is built by hard work, one client at time. Our goal is to win you as a raving fan and leave you inspired to make music.

Our Founder

John’s interest in music began at an early age, participating in vocal contests as a youth. As the son of an industrial engineer, he found himself with an insatiable desire to learn how things work. It started with model railroading and moved on to radio controlled airplanes, then car engines. This culminated into careers in technology and electronics, most recently as an amplifier design engineer. John has developed an acumen for understanding what guitarists want – the tone they hear in their head, with the ability to translate that into a working circuit design. His innovative design creativity and desire to serve others and inspire them to make music is the driving force behind Pro Amp Solutions. John is an avid reader and intentional continuous learner. He earned his MBA and MACE degrees at Dallas Baptist University.
