Reviews • Vintage Sound Amps So, I spoke with Rick on the phone and set up a meeting in Nashville. Rick is very passionate about what he does and that came through in our conversation. The fact that you can actually get “the” guy that actually makes these things on the phone, was a big selling point for me. Well the big day came around and we set up in a room at the rehearsal place called “Soundcheck”. Jan, from “Soundcheck” was kind enough to let us use a room for a couple of hours to try these babies out. Now, I must say, that right from the start you fall in love. These amps are beautiful to look at. The VS “Classic” with the cherry wood cabinet truly looks like something from another era. Meanwhile, the “blond” VS-410 is simply gorgeous. Now, as good as they looked, I still had not plugged in. I had no idea what they were going to sound like. I was just hoping that they would sound as good as they looked. Mind you, this whole time Eddie Perez, my buddy who is now out with Dwight Yoakam was with me. I wanted to bring him along to have a second opinion. After all, it couldn’t hurt to have someone there with the skill and the experience that Eddie has. Besides, musicians are always looking for the next great piece of gear, whether it be an amp, or a pedal, or whatever. We are always in search for good tone. And since old amps are getting harder and harder to come by, and becoming more expensive to work on, these amps may be at the very least, part of the solution. Or as it turns out for me, “the” solution. My first date with my new amps was at the oldest dance hall in Texas- Gruene Hall. This is a great sounding room with wood all around and no walls to make the sound bounce around in. And we were doing two nights so I would really get to hear these babies. Well, right at “sound check” in the afternoon, my tour manager/ sound engineer, Ozzie, was in love with the sound of my amps. He described them as “beautiful” sounding. Now trust me when I say, he doesn’t describe anything as such. It’s just not in his nature. So for him to comment like that, I knew I had made the right choice in amplifiers. As soon as the show started and I hit my opening chords I knew I was going to have a good night. The tone that I had been searching for all my life was here…right behind me! The next night was more of the same blissful relationship with my amps. As the old saying goes…” you get what you pay for”. I think here the correct saying is “you get more than what you pay for”. Certainly, the quality of these amps alone is worth every penny, dime, and nickel. Not that I think they’re expensive… I don’t. There are many “boutique” amps with “boutique” prices that don’t even come close to displaying the quality and craftsmanship that ooze out of these amps. Then you get to deal with Rick, who is knowledgeable and passionate about his product, and a heck of a nice guy and realize that everything is going to be alright…You have great tone!!”
