At the start of 2026, I decided to try my hand at making some free-to-use captures of my 2004 Badcat Wildcat 40R head (Sampson-Era) going through my Marshall Astoria 1×12 cabinet - One of my favourite amplifier combinations… Once captured, I shared it with a few of my friends that were interested in the technology and thought nothing more of it. Until, less than a month later, the founders of the website contacted me directly, informing me that they all loved my captures and wanted to work with me to find the very best amps we can find in the UK and capture them to my studio-level quality…

If you own a rare, vintage, unusual or an awesome amp that you’d love to have a digital version of then please GET IN TOUCH. I’d love to have you over at Blue Bell Hill Studios to capture the best snapshots of your amp for you to earn some money off of via the TONE3000 website. If you don’t own one but you’d like to play through some of the awesome amps I’ve been plugging into this year…
