Kustom Amplification proudly celebrates its 40th Anniversary with the introduction of two series of Limited Edition guitar amplifiers. Sporting cool racing-style stripes, the 40th Anniversary Coupe® Series consists of three models while the new '66 DART™ takes Kustom's popular 10-watt guitar amp platform and gives it a full-on "Tuck n' Roll" visual treatment.

The 40th Anniversary Coupe Series amplifiers will be available in 1x12 (36-watt) and 2x12 (72-watt) combo amp formats as well as a 2x10, 36-watt version - a new configuration for the Coupe Series. In keeping with the Anniversary theme, only 40 of each model will be manufactured.

The padded Tuck n' Roll panels of each Anniversary Coupe are crafted using the original Uniroyal® Naugahide material but with a bold racing stripe added and a special "1966 - 2006" embroidered logo stitched directly onto the colored panel. Otherwise, each model is identical to the standard '36 Coupe and '72 Coupe designs, which are now being endorsed by professional players such as Tracii Guns, Roy Z, Rich Eckhardt (Toby Keith), Van Zant, Jeff Bates, and more. Anniversary Coupes will be shipped with a matching cover that also features the Kustom 40th Anniversary logo.

The '66 DART is based on Kustom's best-selling DART10FX, but now dressed up in either Red, Blue, Silver or Black Tuck n' Roll. Each unit boasts a vintage Kustom logo, carrying handle, control knobs and grille cloth. The '66 DART is a two-channel amplifier with Analog Reverb and Delay effects and a plywood baffle, which enhances the resonance and overall tonality of any guitar amplifier.

Although it's a small amp, the '66 DART offers full 3-Band EQ, a speaker output to drive an external cabinet, Line Out and Headphone jacks as well as a CD/Tape input. The '66 DART amplifiers will be offered for a limited time only.
