Martin's company, Newall Amplification, offers meticulously hand-wired amplifiers circuit boards and offers expert amplifier repair services.

Based in Toronto, Canada, at present Newall Amplification is in the process of designing signature amplifier and cabinet models. Prototypes of these designs will be featured prominently on Wayne's upcoming CD with Billy Kilson and Mike Milligan. Soundclips will be posted soon and a Newall Amplification website is in the works.

Martin Newall has been a guitarist for nearly 40 years, and an amplifier technician for a decade. A player of remarkable facility and range, Martin has been a major source of inspiration and close friend to Wayne for over 20 years.
