About Black Widow Audio Designs

Black Widow Audio Designs is a manufacturer of innovative audio equipment for guitarists and bassists. We began as a simple idea: “What if you could take a digital modeler and recreate it with only vacuum tube based analog circuitry?” If it could be done, we felt it would surely be the most realistic amp modeling possible. Our debut product, the MGP-1A Modeling Guitar Preamplifier, makes this idea a reality.

Here at Black Widow Audio Designs, our philosophy is simple: we make products that we want to play ourselves. When this is your guiding principle, you naturally focus on innovation, reliability and quality. You design for the sake of the product. And you get inspired doing it.

We strive to provide the best customer service possible. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have; we’re happy to answer!

All of our products are lovingly handmade in St. Louis, MO.
