Excellent website - you've got some major (in my book) players using your gear too!

Your website answers my other question of "How does the tweed pre' work with OD?" Looking at all the TweedyVerbODs, I'd say "Very well."

I was just listening to Elvin Bishop's "Drummer Boy" on The Alligator Records Christmas Collection (ALCD XMAS 9201, 1992) this morning. I'd love to hear him play that through your amp!

Congrats Henry! 8) Thanks for all your input here as well!

That issue hasn't hit the stands here in Ohio yet either.

Congrats heisthl! Is there a story or anything behind the name Red Plate and your love for red? If so, could you share it?

Mmmmm, biscuits...

So what was it like, working with Elvin Bishop? How demanding was he? How far off were your first two attempts? What finally clicked for him?

Last time I saw him, he was playing through a Fender Stage 60 - didn't seem all that discerning at the time. ;)
