Komet is a boutique guitar amplifier manufacturer based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, building hand-wired tube amps in small numbers. The company traces its origins to a collaboration with the late Ken Fischer of Trainwreck Circuits, whose design work on the original K60 shaped the brand's tonal direction and earned it a reputation as a torchbearer for Fischer's philosophy after his passing.

Its catalog centers on low- to mid-wattage tube heads and combos such as the Komet 19, Komet 29, Komet 60, Aero 33, Constellation, and Concorde, alongside matching cabinets and the patented AmbiKab wet/dry/wet speaker system. Construction details commonly highlighted by the company include hand-wired turret boards, laser-cut aluminum chassis, and U.S.-made transformers built to proprietary specs.

The brand is associated with players in the blues, Americana, and roots-rock world, with Trey Anastasio of Phish among the notable users. The Komet 19 drew a five-star review from Premier Guitar, and the Aero 33 earned a Guitar Player Editors' Pick, helping cement the company's standing in the boutique amp community.

Komet has 5 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Guitar Amplifier Heads and Combo Guitar Amplifiers. Their gear is featured by 4 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Folk, World, & Country, and Blues. Notable users include Ian D'Sa, Trey Anastasio, and Sonny Landreth.
