Built for Artists

Henriksen Amplifiers is rooted in passion, entrepreneurship, and love for our artistic communities. It all began in the 1980s with our visionary founder Bud Henriksen, who embarked on a journey to fill the void in the marketplace for a jazz guitar amplifier that had high-quality sound in a portable package.

Today, Peter Henriksen carries on his father’s legacy and has extended his vision beyond the jazz genre. All types of musicians, from flat-top acoustic guitar players to harmonica players, can sound their best thanks to the superior sound quality, tone, versatility, features, and power of our portable amplifiers.

Starting at $1199

“I have never heard something like this where you can really turn it up live, and not lose your sound. And it’s so light! The travel thing for me is really, really important.”

“I love my sound, and if an amp can make me sound like myself, only reach more people, then that’s a great amp. Henriksen meets the criteria!”
