SSGuitar is run by Joseph Raymond. Since 2005 when he launched SSGuitar.com, he has been heavily involved in the solid state guitar amplification online community. To date, SSGuitar.com is the only known online forum with solid state guitar amplification as its primary purpose – making it the best place to source this knowledge.

In 2020, Joe launched his first Kickstarter campaign – the Honey Amp. The Honey Amp is the first SSGuitar branded product to come to market. After the successful campaign, the SSGuitar.com web store was launched. We pride ourselves in offering products that are unique as well as useful. All designs facilitate easy component changes or “hacking” of the circuit. Educational content and support are primarily provided through the SSGuitar.com forum. All products are made with as little waste as possible, and with the highest quality components that are reasonably priced. PCBs are printed in the USA from OSH Park, and components are primarily sourced from Mouser.com. Shipping is done with ecologically minded packing material – either recycled or reused if possible.
