MY MONTHLY RANT

The damn politicians are telling us that it's never been better when 

it is not only worse but they made it 50% more f__ked than July!

TIME OUT 

Well today was going to be something I was really looking forward to. 

The release and launch of my own pedal brand LENARD Re-Inventions. 

But I can not ship without prepaying the electrical goods duty which 

neither country can say what it is. So I have to wait until the squabble 

is over. That will not happen until one side agrees to give the other a B.J.  

 

 

TOYS FOR THE OLDER BOYS

                             some old, some new, all cool !!!

PEAVEY VTM PreAmp

The big ...big deal last month was the Friedman JOSE 20 head.
Well in 1987 Peavey brought out their VTM 60 & 120 watt VTM 

heads that were JOSE  amps too. They just released a killer clone 

of it with a pedal. $200 to my ears sounds better than the 

$1800 for the Friedman.
