Howard...(I knew him before Alexander was in vogue)...not exactly a guy with a lot of business common sense. I know this personally.
But he made great amps, gooped the crap out of them, and created a legend. I heard from Drew Berlin years ago that Dumble had "forgiven me" for some baseless injustice I did to him. He kind of forgot that I was instrumental in trying to get his dumble.com domain name back from Andy. He also forgets things like completion dates, showing up on time, answering his phone, etc. It's a long story best told over a few beers.

This was a great podcast. I will listen to the others.captaincoconut wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 7:26 pm If you want to hear Robben's view on this story listen to the Guitarwank podcast episode with him. He told it without dropping a single negative word about HAD. Just had a relisten yesterday after I saw you posting the same story on TGP.
Good or bad, the stories about the man behind these great amps are nice to learn. To anyone who has a story, please keep sharing.

I guess no one cares that this obvious self promotion post by grammatico was posted on the gear page as well as here. It was called out as false on the gear page with supporting evidence from many, including a person or two that knows all names mentioned. After which it was deleted a day later by the person that created the thread (grammitico amps).

Crazy! If thats true. People on here usually build amps so the self promotion is wasted.Rob wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2024 3:40 am I guess no one cares that this obvious self promotion post by grammatico was posted on the gear page as well as here.

Yep, I know how it works here. Been here since 2007. This OP is a false flag.
