Hey, all! Hang tight...some things will be changing under the hood of www.bullheadamplification.com very soon. The website doesn't necessarily get the attention all the time due to builds, the speediness of posting on Instagram (www.instagram.com/bullheadamplification), etc. If you need anything in the meantime, feel free to email info@bullheadamplification.com and we will get you squared away ASAP. Cheers! -Scott

It is with great excitement that we finally get to announce that Jess Franklin (session guitarist and guitarist for Brantley Gilbert) is playing Bullhead on tour and in the studio now. He's rocking the Bullhead Matador 50W head and it's been powering his rig since the start of Brantley's "The Ones Who Like Me" Tour. See if you can spot it in the video from BG's Instagram post... ;-) Special thanks to @jkp143 / @clydesdaleguitars for the connection and shot of the rig.

Stone Sour -- House of Gold and Bones, Part 1I'm extremely proud and excited to say that I was a piece in the puzzle for Stone Sour's second part of the Album "House of Gold & Bones Part 2" -- It's a two part album, second of which came out today. One of my Bullhead Amp models, the Lead Sledwas used for recording guitar parts. I was even fortunate enough to hang out and see some of the tracking as well in late Spring. The album SLAMS. Get Part 2 now, and Part 1 came out in Oct 2012. Just like the first part of the double disc, it's such a good album. I'd like to send out a very special THANK YOU again to David Bottrill, Michael Phillips, and of course the guys in Stone Sour for letting me peek in at the action.
