GAETA NU50 Preorder

A  single channel, modern high-gain amplifier built from the ground up to cover everything from classic rock to early 2000s nu metal—without compromise.

This isn’t a clone. It’s the result of years spent studying the exact modded Marshalls behind some of the most iconic nu metal tones. After tracking down original amps and breaking down what made them special, the NU50 was designed to capture that character—then refine it.

The result is an amp that’s tight, articulate, and incredibly clear, but never sterile. It retains the raw aggression and chew of vintage-inspired circuits while delivering the precision and control needed for modern high-gain playing.

Whether you’re chasing classic rock crunch, punchy drop-tuned riffs, or saturated nu metal tones, the NU50 responds with depth, clarity, and authority.
