Designed in Collaboration with Billy Gibbons

The Chrome Grape cosmetic was designed in collaboration with Billy Gibbons, reflecting his unmistakable style and flair for bold stage aesthetics. Deep grape vinyl covering, polished chrome hardware, and coordinated trim create a finish that is striking without excess. A chrome faceplate with Billy Gibbons’ signature completes the design, carrying a unified visual identity across the Super Fifty-Nine M-80, Baby M-80, and Super Fifteen while leaving each amplifier’s original circuit design untouched.

Classic British Voice, Finished in Chrome Grape

Portable British-style warmth and drive, wrapped in striking Chrome Grape. Available as a combo or head with matching cabinet.

The Baby M-80 Chrome Grape edition pairs classic British crunch with a bold visual identity designed in collaboration with Billy Gibbons.

Finished in deep grape vinyl with polished chrome hardware and coordinated trim, the amplifier features a chrome faceplate with Billy Gibbons’ signature. Compact and ultra-portable, this 12-watt amplifier delivers warm drive and responsive feel in a format built for expressive playing and unmistakable style.

Beneath the exterior, the Baby M-80 is powered by NOS 6AQ5 pentode tubes producing 12 watts of warm, dynamic output. A 12AX7 preamp with LO and HI gain modes allows seamless movement from clean, articulate tones to smooth, saturated overdrive. A master volume maintains the amp’s natural character at any level, while an effects loop between the preamp and power sections preserves clarity when using pedals or external processors. Handbuilt in St. Louis under the guidance of engineer Obeid Khan, each Chrome Grape Baby M-80 is available as a 1×10 combo or head with matching cabinet loaded with a WGS ET10 speaker. It is a compact amplifier designed to balance portability, versatility, and a refined visual statement.
