Port City Amplification - OUR VALUES Port City Amplification is based out of Asheville, NC, where we design and build all of our products to a strict quality standard, while striving to keep them affordable for working musicians. We approach what we do as an art - not in a lofty, unapproachable fashion - but because we find beauty in the simplicity and depth of what we create. When you buy a Port City product, you are buying a piece of gear that we have invested in so that you can be inspired to make music.

The concept of these cabinets emerged from a place of asking fundamental questions about how to get the best tone possible from a guitar speaker. The simplicity in this approach to designing products continued as Daniel designed the Twelve, and soon after, the Pearl... HOME Asheville, NC. We are very proud to operate this business from the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. We are located about 10 minutes outside of downtown Asheville and couldn't be happier with this home base for Port City Amplification.  (view less)
