Scuffham Amps was launched in 2011 by former Marshall Amps designer Mike Scuffham.
The goal of the company is to continue the craft of guitar amp design into the digital domain, creating high quality products that are unique, simple and inspiring to use.
Mike studied Music Technology and Acoustics in London during the 1980’s, joining the Marshall Amplification R&D team in 1990 and designing the highly regarded JMP-1 Midi Preamp, the first Marshall product to combine analogue, tube, and digital technology. Mike worked on several other projects at Marshall Amps before going on to join Akai Professional in 1996 as part of the DD1500 software team. For several years Mike was involved in the development of high-end video processing equipment and other mainstream IT, coming back to guitar music technology in 2009 with the development of S-Gear.
