The world of music is one of loud and unapologetic creativity. Guitarists will always be searching for the next high-end amp and creating extraordinary music. Unfortunately, the customization of the sound from these amps has always been limited by the number of dials on the amplifier.

Through a Raspberry Pi enabled system, the GRasPi Guitar Amplifier is able to provide unlimited tuning options in customizing the tone and volume of music. The prospect of having this level of tweaking power is exciting for anyone looking to play music to the beat of their own drum, creating new, previously unheard sounds.
