We will be at LA amp show Oct 2,3 2010

Post by VelvetGeorge » Mon Sep 13, 2010 4:41 pm

Booked the show and our flights this morning. Dave and I will be there. Hope to have full stacks of each of the True Replica cabs (basketweave and pinstripe) on display. I'm trying to borrow some amps to display to save shipping everything to Van Nuys, my budget is practically zero for this show. But no matter what, we will have the full line on hand. 12,000 10,000 GPM 45 45/100

Please join us, I'll fill the tub with beer and water as usual.

I'm coming on Sunday and really want to hear the '68.

What's up Mr. Scumback?

Hey James! I'm up to my ass in speaker boxes, orders, and unpacking at our new place in Whittier. Got a 3 car garage I'm renovating, I've got money falling out my bunghole at it I'd saved up, and it's still two weeks from being done.

Can't think of anything at the moment, but if I do I'll let you know....oh yeah...an 8 foot double pain vinyl sliding door would be nice. :lol:

Can someone fill me in on the location, price (if any), and if any of the amps on hand will be for sale.

Dave and I are on the plane headed for LA. I'm posting from my phone, how cool!

Didn't sleep much last night, had to be at the airport by 5AM. Ouch.

Looking forward to the show and seeing friends. It's been a stressful year. A nice show might be good therapy.

Ha ha...arriving today? Good for you. I'll be there tomorrow afternoon. You need to come by the room (probably right next door!) and checkout the new speaker I'm introducing. :wink:

Nope, sorry. Pretty sure the paper voice coil project died with Ted. TA can't seem to find a reliable source for the paper voice coils. I know, I know, I wanted them, too, but Ted only had 2 different machine shops that would do it, I guess. One's got a guy who's not good at communication, the other I don't know what the problem was.

TA has been trying to follow up, but nothing so far.

Amp show was awesome :mrgreen:

George and co. had a full stack 45/100 w pinstripe cabs (Hendrix Monterey Pop specs), half stack jtm45, '67 100w and a purple '68 100w.

Think I spent half the day in the metro room, and probably played on those amps for hours :wink:

It was awesome getting to just plug in and play any of those amps, any time, as loud as possible 8)

George, Dave and the gang were all really cool and down to earth... And I just CAN'T WAIT for the amp build that George has in store for me :shock: :mrgreen:
