Bill Burgess now on Tube guitar amp builders FB page

Post by M Fowler »

Not sure who let this clown into the group on Facebook but here he is talking crap again and funny now he says his Trainwreck amps are clones?

My Trainwreck copies use only NOS Mullard, Telefunken, Genelex Gold lion etc. - plus all the real Mullard filter caps and original Ken Fischer transformers.

While I am a fan of the EL37 myself, it was never used in the Trainwreck.

My guess is he hated the original TW circuits so much that he did what he could to modify them rather than appreciate Ken's hard work. :lol:

Ugh... I'm on there. I suspect, given time... he will hang himself with his own rope. :?

If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.

yes he is ...

Someone started a thread asking "what's your favorite production amp?"
The OP said a Z Wreck ... which I agree is an amazing amp!!!!

of course 'someone' posted about a one-off Wreck clone they had done ...
I replied that "I didn't think that was what production meant ..."

'the someone' did edit the original crap they posted BUT ...

I guess he took the comment down - but this is unfortunate. People like that taint the air of many a great conversation. I just want to build cool stuff and learn from cool people.

I agree with HeeBGB... Burgess ain't worth a fart in a whirlwind... a complete waste of oxygen.

Yesterday he admitted "I have days where I can't get a sound that I can even stand."
