A bus stops at a bus station. A train stops at a train station. On my desk, I have a work station.

RIP
Thanks for posting.  Had not run across him or his site.  Seems like a pretty cool guy, I wish I had.

He was a regular on several tube amp forums and although he was a recent member here, he never made any posts on the site. But many forumites will have known him from other forums


Here are some articles he wrote

RIP Tele Man hats off to the mods he did on that poor Tele. Would have sounded pretty wild and wide sound wise.
