It's like the klon's people are quick to rag on them, but just as many are happy to capitalize on the reputation and make money off of someone else's work,
Mesa amps are expensive and don't appreciate, reminds me of the people who jack the price up to make you go away unless you're serious, and it ain't bill or Howard
asking 2-60k for their work. Now you get a pair like Poop reed smith & mayer , Gee, he owns dumbles but play a prs amp they gotta be good!

Guitar amps….serious business!

I so dislike the modern digital world that I need to use semi-digital effects to emulate the analog world of cassette, VHS, and vinyl.

“Telephone consultation for 10 minutes or less is……….$200.00” in 1992 money which today is $400.78.

$900 per hour once over 10 minutes! He sure didn't like talking on the phone. (And only $55/hr for actual servicing.)

Charging such a high fee is a (perhaps inelegant...) way of avoid wasting time with people who would never become customers of their products anyway. :roll:

True, and a brilliant way of ripping off your real customers!
