Amplify Your True Voice

The voice of a nylon-string guitar is alive with subtleties — the breath of fingertips on wound strings, the bloom of a resonant body, the whisper between notes. These are the details that define the instrument, and they’re the first to vanish through ordinary amplification.

Henriksen preserves them.

Our amps are designed for pure acoustic integrity — the warmth, clarity, and immediacy nylon players crave. Whether you’re onstage or in the studio, every nuance of your tone translates — from delicate tremolo to bold rasgueado — with the same dimensional richness you hear unplugged.

No color. No hype. Just truth — amplified.

Henriksen amplifiers exist to do one job well: bring your instrument to the audience without tampering with its identity. We design in-house, use all-analog signal paths, avoid colorizing your tone, and always choose premium components.

“Henriksen delivers transparent amplification that preserves every nuance of the guitar’s acoustic character while providing the volume needed to cut through ensembles, enabling full musical expression without sonic sacrifice.”

Why Nylon String Guitar Players Choose Henriksen

  • Travel-ready lightness. Our 6″ models weigh in at about 13 lbs, easy to carry in one hand alongside your instrument. Our larger 10″ models are only around 20 lbs, giving you big-room projection without the back strain.
  • Serious volume headroom. Don’t let the small footprint fool you. Our 6″ amps easily handle rehearsals, small venues, and coffeehouses with clarity. Step up to the 10″ models and you have enough clean power to fill a concert hall without breaking up or distorting your tone.
  • Warm, Natural Response: Our amps are voiced to preserve the organic character of acoustic instruments, never adding harshness or artificial tones.
  • Plug-and-Play Simplicity: With intuitive EQ controls and flexible inputs, Henriksen amps adapt seamlessly to any instrument.
  • Trusted by Professionals: From conservatory soloists to touring chamber ensembles, players worldwide rely on Henriksen to project their artistry without compromise.

Test it for 14 days — if it doesn’t make you sound better, return it.

Henriksen is more than gear. It’s a mission. Because when your sound is clearer, your artistry is louder.
