It was another huge success & worked smooth thanks to the hard work of all involved.
We also want to Thank everyone who stopped by the Telonics showrooms & also those who purchased Telonics products.
Thank You !!!!!
We all had a great time visiting with friends there + meeting new friends.

Hello Paddy;
It was great for all of us to get to see you again.
You did a great job on you set on the main stage.
You are always welcome in the Telonics rooms.
Folks, if you do not have Paddy's CD - pick one up -
he has that pedal steel guitar singing.
Glad you & Brian made it home safe!
Thanks from everyone at Telonics. _________________ "Tone is in the hands. Unless your wife will let you buy a new amp. Then it's definitely in that amp."

The Rick Alexader Non-Pedal Sessions would like to turn this around and thank Telonics... they brought us two amps and a volume pedal for our backline and contacted us at least three times a day to make sure all was well. It was a pleasure to meet Dave Beatty and have him walk me through the functions on the amp and pedal. This is the kind of old-fashioned customer care (even though we weren't buying!) that gives you confidence.
So thanks Dave and crew... you helped make our 2016 show one of the best in memory. See you in 2017! _________________ Too much junk to list... always getting more. |

Hi Ron
One of the highlights of any steel show is the Telonics room!! As others have said in the past, it is about the "Hang". Hanging with Ron is the coolest!
Superior Products with Great People!
I can't say enough good things about the products and people at Telonics!
Dixie says hello TOO and LOVES to "Hang" in the Telonics room!

Phew! What a busy show... Great to catch up with you Ron, the Telonics crew, old friends and meet some new friends.
I missed the Friday evening in the bar... suffering from the old jet lag! But caught the late night Saturday show and several main stage performances over the weekend.
I must hold my hat off to Paddy and his good buddy on guitar. They did an excellent job on the main stage, using the 'upgraded' Zum! Enjoyed our jam mate!
Sadly I missed Marcel's performance and just didn't bump into him over the weekend - next time:)
This is one festival I will NEVER forget...
Dave Beaty and Telonics greatly appreciates each and every customer that uses the products. So a BIG Thank You to everyone who supported Telonics during the festival.
Cheers all |

Telonics never fails to provide the help I need to get me back to full operational condition. They have my total gratitude and admiration for work above and beyond the call.
I salute Dave, Stacy, Sophie, Amber, Brenda, Ron W., Ron B., and John B. for exemplary service in the field and in the shop. Truly remarkable people creating a truly remarkable company. _________________ My rig: Infinity and Telonics.

Thanks to Dave and Ron and crew for working with me in the selection of my new Telonics amp. I had to make sure that it would sound good with not only my G2, but also with my Tele. I hauled all my stuff into the cave Friday morning and was able to tweek it all to my satisfaction.
Thanks again!

There's an old saying my Grandmother used a lot:
"It's easy to be nice to nice people"
It was true then and it's still true today.
We get to meet and work with SO many great people in the steel community; it's a privilege for us.
Our thanks go out to YOU.
Thanks for making this ride such an enjoyable experience. We're already looking forward to new developments to share with everyone.

The Telonics people are all so warm and friendly, and their products are all at the cutting edge of technology.
One observation that I will make is that generally the out front sound in the main hall was way superior this year to previous years. This was due in no small part to the fact that many of the performers were using the back line amps graciously supplied by Telonics. Thanks to them for their part in making the concerts and dances sound so much better. _________________ Show Pro D10 - amber (8+6), MSA D10 Legend XL Signature - redburst (9+6), Sho-Bud Pro 111 Custom (8+6), Emmons black Push-Pull D10 (8+5), Zum D10 (8x8), Hudson pedal resonator.

We wish to say a big Thank You to all the folks that use & support the Telonics products.
If you know anything at all about Telonics, you know that the customer ALWAYS comes 1st with Dave.
I watched Dave patiently explain everything there is to know about the Telonics volume pedal to a potential customer early Saturday morning.
By the time Dave finished we had several folks crowded around listening to Dave.
Yes, the new customer did purchase the volume pedal
& was very excited to get it..Just one example & I always learn more when I listen to him talk about his products..
After all, each product was at one time just an idea in his head..
Randy - when we saw his rig we did not know if it would work for him -
that was why I asked him to bring everything he uses to the Dallas show & we would hook it up & try it..
Dave dialed his amp in for Randy's steel to where Randy was happy with the sound then he switched over to the Tele thru his rack setup..
Within a few minutes I saw a big smile on Randy's face & I knew he was there..
I had never heard Randy play but I have to tell you - he is a great pedal steel guitar player & a smokin' hot Tele player -
a real asset to any band he plays with.
Thanks for stopping by the Telonics room & trying then buying the Telonics amp..
We appreciate you giving us the chance to show you all the features of the telonics amp line.
Everyone at Telonics says Thank You !! _________________ "Tone is in the hands. Unless your wife will let you buy a new amp. Then it's definitely in that amp."

We at M.S.A. would like to thank Dave for letting us put a Guitar in the room, what better way to hear the difference in pickups when you can change it in seconds..
No one makes better Steel Stuff BETTER than Dave!!!!!!... I never leave home without Telonics!!...
