Years ago I got a red SLO-100 w/ a few factory mods. I might have got another amp from them as well, I can't remember.
As far as back then, Lynn was great to deal with. Even gave me a bunch of Preamp tubes to try in the new SLO.

Looks like he is a big Mezzabarba dealer now.

bought a Mezzabarba foot switch from him last year. GTG

Just got some speaker cables from them yesterday. Only place I could find that had what I wanted.

Ah yeah, I remember him throwing a temper tantrum when Mike sold Soldano because he was going to have to operate under a normal dealer agreement like everybody else instead of getting the good old boy discount because he knew Mike and then price gouged on his remaining Soldano inventory. Didn't strike me as a guy I would want to deal with. IMHO YMMV etc etc etc

I’m starting to get tired of the “cancel” stuff. He had a foot switch I needed, so I paid and received it. Communications were friendly.

Good enough for me nowadays. Lol

EDIT - Not trying to call you out or anything.

Call it what you want, dude seemed like an asshole and I don't spend money with people who seem like they would be a problem if issues come up with a purchase. For cables and crap who cares, for a couple grand amp? You do you but I'll pass and deal with somebody I know I won't have to fight with if something gets damaged in shipping etc.

Supposedly he doesn’t like any amp that is made by B.A.D.

Did he touch you inappropriately?
I remember Lynn is a pilot. Big planes if I remember right.
