Are you tired of Marshall and Fender amps? Are you looking for something vintage but unique? Well my guy, it sounds like you need a Hiwatt!

The Ceriatone 504 is based on the legendary 50 watt Hiwatt DR504 - the little brother of the 100 watt DR104. The 504 has big beautiful cleans and is the perfect platform for use with pedals. There's so much headroom you don't even need an FX loop!

In this video we're going to look at the controls, listen to sound samples and take a close look at the build. I'll even throw in a few really helpful amp building tips that apply to any amp you might be building.
