Who is who?

[bruce egnater]

I am new to your group. Curious who the "regulars" are. Who is Shawn? Who is Talbany? Are you guys from, or own, Two Rock? Just trying to get a broader picture?

I never knew or thought it before, but after reading the post in my Emerald Pro thread, it sure seemed like Talbany was one of the original twoRock owners. Joe or Bill, is that you??

I am just a guitar and part time Dumbleholic, but a lot of people here seem to think I am an assaholic.

Bruce,

I can think of two quick ways to figure out the regulars.

1) Look under Dumble files & look for posts of information that have
hits of 4000 or more and who started the post.

2) Look at the Dumble amp building section and look thru about 5
pages of threads with hits of 4000 or more and who started the
post.

That will give you a sense of the "regulars" and some of the individuals who are very knowledgeable and perhaps have helped break some new ground in the clones.

As an example of someone who has broken new ground and contributed in a truly remarkable way: ic-racer and his ManZamp build.

His thread has 26,000 views:

With respect, 10thtx




(as an FYI, I am a regular viewer but have never built a Dumble and prefer Dumble inspired amps like the D'Mars and the TweedBluezMeister which are lower volume cathode biased dumblish inspired. I don't post very often on this foum)

I must mention Mat's 2010 EL84 HRM which was a great inspiration for me too.
Not forgetting of course, Gil, Martin M, Tom, ChrisM, Aaron, AmplifiedNation,
Martin Fowler, Firestorm for all things Fender, Funkalicious, Husky (Suhr),10thTX, Jelle, Henry (Redplate), Bluesmanfenderblues,ic-racer,Ultrahookedonphonix.......
well the list just goes on!
Sorry if I left anyone out, please add some of your own!

[jelle]

I have the impression is that the question that is being asked is to which companies the different - and often anonymous - forum characters are connected.

[rogb]

You might be right.
Oh well my Hall Of Fame still stands

[10thTx]

Perhaps Max may be (?) the most knowledgeable around the history of the Dumble amps, time periods, models, etc......

Who is Talbany

Bruce
I founded and ran VVT Amps in 02.. Sold company and retired/ moved in 010
At present I build for a selected few (mostly Nashville players)..I also design consult and draft work for other companies (no affiliation with 2 Rock so far)..
Although I love tube amps I have been playing guitar professionally for 35 years and continue to do so!

BTW good to see you posting here as there are many here who are fine builders and wonderful contributors to the Garage..

Hope this helps!

Tony
