WOW, is all I can say about the fabulous recording facilities here at Sweetwater Music's world headquarters in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. I was invited here a couple weeks ago for three days of sessions for some local singers and song writers. My old friend Mark Hornsby is the Director of Recording and Artist Relations for Sweetwater. Mark is a Nashville guy that I worked with since the mid 90's. Some of Nashville's best studio guys are here this week and I'm so grateful to be working with some old friends and some new ones. If your ever in Ft. Wayne Sweetwater is a must see. It's a music store, production facility, warehouse, learning center, cafeteria, barber shop, fitness center and I can't imagine what else all under one roof. The staff are the best.
I recommend that you take a few minutes and click on the link and take the tour.

I've done a lot of business with Sweetwater over the years, and I've dealt with the same guy for over 20 years. Usually sales people at these places change about every six months. It must be a great place to work.

Most of my recording studio equipment was purchased from Sweetwater. Same with the GK MB200 amp. Sweetwater gives a "free" second year warranty of most of what they sell.
I've been dealing with the same guy since I started buying from them (Patrick Dennis). |

| I have heard tons of great things about their studio. It's top of the line with all the latest and greatest. And they KNOW how to use it. I personally know they have the best support staff of anybody for their store. You have a question, if they don't know, they will find out and call you back. |
