Plexi Replicas plans for 2010

[VelvetGeorge]

Hi all, I've got big plans for Metropoulos in 2010 and want to share them.

One of the biggest things this year will be on Feb 1st when my great friend Dave Piechura takes over day to day management of Metroamp. This will free me up to build more amps, develop more products, add another amp kit to the Metroamp lineup, update amp kit instructions and more!
This has been a long time coming and I'm excited at the prospect.

About Dave: he has been a recording engineer for over 20 years, a gear collector, total vintage geek, walking encyclopedia of recording gear and spent 18 years at Vintage King Audio. He will be available here on the forum, by phone and by email salesrep AT metroamp.com

The first new product in the Metropoulos lineup are the True Replica cabinets. Due to start shipping in late February, these are the most accurate replica cabinets available anywhere, at any price. Updates to the True Replica cab page on plexireplicas.com soon.

Later this Spring I'll be adding authentic 50 watt Lead and 50 watt Bass replicas to our lineup. Conspicuously missing til now, the 50 watts are icons in their own right. An absolute must-have for Jeff Beck, Dwayne Allman and countless other tones.

Unfortunately, I do have to raise the prices of Metropoulos amplifiers this year. They will go up on Feb 1st. But anyone who contacts me prior to that date is welcome to lock in their build at current pricing. Just a $500 deposit will secure your amp/price. I have not finalized the new prices yet.

Metropoulos will be on display more times this year than ever before! Join us at these events:

NAMM show Anaheim, CA Jan 14-17. GPM 45 head on display in the Mogami able booth.

March 6,7 Austin Amp Show Austin, TX. Another Loni Spector amp show added to our calender. These shows are always a blast, this one is already shaping up to be a classic. we anticipate a special guest or two.
