⚡️ Orion 25 Combo ⚡️

Fresh off the bench — rich cocoa finish, wheat grille cloth, and vintage-inspired styling wrapped around the unmistakable Achillies voice.

The Orion 25 delivers touch sensitivity, warmth, and clarity with enough punch for stage or studio, all in a compact combo format built by hand in Australia 🇦🇺

Every detail matters — from the cabinet craftsmanship to the final voicing.

20 years ago, Achillies Amps started with a passion for handcrafted tone, high voltage, and uncompromising sound.

What began in 2006 as a vision to build amplifiers with soul has grown into two decades of custom builds, loud stages, studio sessions, and an incredible community of players who believe tone still matters.

To everyone who has supported us over the years — thank you.

This anniversary belongs to every guitarist, musician, customer, dealer, and friend who became part of the journey.

Here’s to 20 years of valves, volume, and analog rebellion.

Argos 2x12 Speaker Cabinet

Bold, refined, and built to move air.

The Argos 2x12 is finished in black bronco tolex, detailed with gold pin piping along the edges and black & tan grill cloth, then topped off with a copper logo badge for a subtle but unmistakably boutique touch.

Tonally, it delivers a wide, punchy low end with strong projection and clarity — equally at home on stage or in the studio. It’s a cabinet designed to pair beautifully with classic and modern amps alike, both sonically and visually.

Built with premium materials and careful attention to detail throughout.

Available loaded or unloaded.

Classic looks. Serious tone.

Hydra 1x12 Speaker Cabinet

The Hydra 1x12 is a compact, no-nonsense cabinet built for players who want classic tone, solid construction, and stage-ready looks.

Finished in black tolex with retro black & silver grill cloth, it nails that timeless aesthetic while delivering a tight, focused low end and clear midrange punch. Perfect as a grab-and-go cab, a studio companion, or paired with a small to mid-powered head.

Built from quality materials with careful attention to resonance and durability, the Hydra 1x12 works equally well for rehearsals, gigs, and recording sessions.
Available loaded or unloaded.

Hand-built with care.
No fluff — just tone.

✨ The golden age of tone, reborn. ✨
Just uploaded a new demo of the Achillies Orion 25 Combo in a tweed relic finish – think vintage 1950’s Fender vibe, but with modern Achillies DNA and craftsmanship.
This one’s loaded with a Jensen P12Q speaker for warm, articulate cleans. Halfway through, I kick in the Nobels ODR-1 Overdrive to show how the amp responds when pushed. Recorded with SE VR1 + Shure SM57 to capture every detail.

It’s finally here!

Back in December, I had the privilege of hosting the Celestion crew all the way from the U.K. in the Achillies workshop and gave me an early teaser at their brand-new speaker, the Peacemaker. At the time I couldn’t say a word… then in January it was revealed to the world.
Fast forward to now — I’ve finally got one in my hands here at the workshop! ⚡
So here’s the question:
👉 Should I make a demo of the Peacemaker?
👉 And more importantly — which Achillies amp do you want to hear it in first?
Drop your votes in the comments 👇 Let’s make it happen!
