The word "mahalo" means "thank you" in Hawaiian. That makes it the perfect name for Mahalo guitar amplifiers, because this is a series of amps that you can't help but respect. Even just looking at a Mahalo gives an instant impression of build quality, and that's nothing compared to their sound. These amps are built with a focus on clarity and note separation, allowing every nuance of your riffs to shine through even under high-gain adjustments.
Did you know that Johnny Depp plays guitar when he's not in front of a camera? Maybe - but did you know that he uses a Mahalo AEM50 amplifier? And he's not the only one. Mahalo amps have been on and off camera themselves, playing on the Tonight Show, Saturday Night Live and the Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson as well as onstage with bands like Fuel, Blackberry Smoke, Collective Soul and the Jason Mraz Band.
Basic science tells us that the more we complicate a guitar setup by adding pedals and channels, the more quality the signal is going to lose going along the line. Mahalo made it their mission to help solve that problem, and they did it by building amps that have powerful tone-shaping tools built right in. The result is what you'll find in this amplifier lineup: tons of settings, every one as good as the next, translating to amazing tone every time you play.
If you're looking for the most compact and portable Mahalo guitar amp setup, start with a look at their combo amps. These come based on the same legendary platforms as Mahalo amp heads, including the Katy 66 and AEM50. On the other hand, if you want the biggest, most powerful setup you can get your hands on, then Mahalo's selection of tube amplifier heads and speaker cabinets will definitely put a smile on your face.
Whichever combination of Mahalo guitar amplifier hardware is right for you, one thing will always be true: you're going to love it. Everything about a Mahalo amp is top-of-the-line, from the materials and design to the style and sound. When you want to take the stage with the best hardware at your side, you've found the right amps to do it.
