Mesa Boogie Mini Rectifier 25
Austin recently switched to tube driven tone and switched to a Mesa Mini Rectifier 25 head. This all tube amplifier is loud enough to meet Austin's needs and then some. It also has enough crunch and gain to accomedate Breakcell's metal sound while maintaining a great clean tone for softer music. This versatile amp meets all of Austin's demands and then some.

Crate Powerblock 150
Austin's Crate Powerblock 150 is Austin's first high powered amplifier. This amp was designed for player's like Austin who, at the time, got their tone from pedals or POD units. This small powerhouse can give out up to 150 watts of power and can double as a stereo amp splitting the power into 2 75 watt speakers. This solid state amp is extremely inexpensive and sounds great for pedal users that want a pure high volume amplifier.
