About

Monster Effects is the creation of electronics whiz John Spears. John combined his obsession for the brown face tremolo sound and his electronics experience to create the original Swamp Thang. The response to the unit inspired John to launch Monster Effects in 2001. Since it's inception, the Swamp Thang has become a favorite among touring musicians and studio types as well. Heck even the beginner guitarist should have it in his or her arsenal.

2005 brought along the creation of Atom Amps, which specialized in the building of boutique, point to point, hand built amps. Atom Amps is a collaboration between John and the best guitar cabinet builder around, Larry Rogers. All products are hand built in the U.S.A. just like it should be.
