Krank Amplification is a guitar amplifier company founded in 1996 in Tempe, Arizona by Tony Krank. The company built a following in the hard rock and metal communities for its high-gain, hand-built tube amplifiers and solid-wood speaker cabinets, with product lines including the Revolution (Rev) Series, the Krankenstein, the Rev Jr. and Krankenstein Jr. micro stacks, the Nineteen 80, and the Distortus Maximus distortion unit.

The Krankenstein head became the brand's signature flagship, developed in collaboration with Pantera's Dimebag Darrell as a variant of the Revolution tailored to his specifications. Krank amps have been associated with a number of metal and hard rock players over the years, contributing to the brand's reputation as a boutique high-gain builder aimed squarely at aggressive tones.

Krank has 10 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Guitar Amplifier Heads, Guitar Amplifier Cabinets, and Overdrive Effects Pedals. Their gear is featured by 28 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Metal, and Electronic. Notable users include Dimebag Darrell, James Hetfield, and Patrick Stump.
