Ken - Just ribbing you a little. You're an expert. I'm still trying to figure out if a 15 amp circuit will carry 5 Nashville 400's, 5 Steel Kings, and 5 Nashville 1000's. I'm not sure if the 15 amps have to all be the same kind of amp.

Got it fixed. Thanks for letting me know. I still can't change the color of the two links on the bottom of the home page! No matter what color I change them too they stay the same when I publish the website!

Oh well! Lots to learn still.

That is Jack Conyer's fine ride! Went down there Thanksgiving day and checked it out. He even let me steer it by myself. Now that's a buddy for you!

Lonnie. I am bringing both new amps to the next JAX show! You gotta try them out for me.

Fixed up Larry Moore's Christmas Tree amp. Sounds great now. Guess yours is next??

Ray, come on down to the Dallas Show this year and visit a bit. I hope to have at least a table, and hopefully I might talk another vendor into sharing some space to let folks try out the amps with their products.

Sounds even better that I remember.. And that was your amp and just a touch of reverb in a garage with a vocal mic, recorded into a lap top!! Wow what an amp ! One thing about it that amp will definitely make you aware of whether u are IN TUNE or not... Never played through anything like it.. Gotta be THE BEST sounding amp I ever plugged into. Instant match made in Heaven. Good looking, built Fox tough for the rigors of the road! :mrgreen:

You can hear Tommy on the website. He did a great job! We just ran thru my pedal board and turned off the tuner, echo, compressor, and chorus. Just used a little RV-5 in the mix.

Not a studio recording, but more like a live situation with just the bare essentials to record with!
