Ceriatone 2202
BASED IN KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA, Ceriatone has been selling hand-wired tube amps to satisfied customers around the world for going on two decades now. Although the company, headed by Nik S. Azam, originally earned its reputation as a maker of amp kits and quality homages to several vintage and boutique amp models, Ceriatone has delved into original designs and concepts over the past several years, and appears to be earning an entirely new following as a result. Yes, the 2202 “lunchbox head” on review might be inspired by the legendary Marshall JCM800 2204 model of the early ’80s, but it boasts far more original and creative thinking than the Marshall-alikes of a good couple dozen boutique makers working today, including several features which coalesce to make this one of the handiest little rock machines I’ve plugged into in a long time.
