Sound City was a British amplifier brand manufactured by Dallas Arbiter, active from the mid-1960s through the mid-1970s and notable for transformer designs by Jim Marshall. The company produced a range of heads from 30 to 200 watts, all built around EL34 power tubes and sharing the warm, harmonically complex tone associated with British rock amplification. This collection entry covers multiple Sound City models and circuits.
