Doug Aldrich is widely regarded as one of the most respected guitarists in the world, boasting an impressive career with legendary bands such as Whitesnake, Dio, Burning Rain, Lion, Hurricane, House of Lords, Bad Moon Rising, and Revolution Saints. Since 2016, Doug has also been a key member of the all-star rock supergroup, The Dead Daisies, all while releasing several solo albums

The DA100 Ruby turned heads and won awards worldwide. Developed in close collaboration with Doug Aldrich of The Dead Daisies and Whitesnake, it delivered a stage-ready tone that players everywhere wanted. The DA5 Ruby gives you exactly that. Same DNA. Same Ruby finish. Same legendary Aldrich character. Now in a form that fits your home and your studio.

Unlike most other low power valve amps which are single-ended, this is a genuine push-pull design using a 12BH7 valve that delivers the feel and character of 100W valve amp.

Authentic big-rig valve tone in a 5 Watt combo, with power reduction down to 0.5 Watt for any playing situation.

Doug Aldrich signature combo built on the award-winning HT-5R MK III platform.
