Splawn Quickrod 100W

I have a new Competition 50 in the mini Plexi headshell that was supposed to ship this week. He said he was finishing it last week, and sent me a link to pay the other half before it was even done. I thought it was odd, but against my better judgement, I paid. Checked on it today and got crickets, but I'm sure he'll respond tomorrow.

Good luck, bud. But I am sure he will come through. New amps make him money. He wouldnt mark cameron all of a sudden

Loved my 2005 until it died in 2021. Called Scott to see about sending it in for repair. I was willing to pay for the repair, as I knew the amp was old. He told me he wouldn't look at it, and told me to just buy a new QR. That is not standing behind your product. I will never own another one of his amps.

I've read other experiences like yours that state that Splawn is not in the business of repairing their amps. That is disappointing, and maybe a reason why I'm a bit hesitant to buy one. They sound great in most clips I've heard.

Like others have already commented, I've had similar experiences. The QR is one of my favorite amps of all time, but both times that I reached out to him about issues over the last 10 years he was zero help. Luckily I'm 30 minutes from Andy Fuchs and Andy and his team are incredible. They got my QR sorted out and back to me in under a week.

I've been casually trying to find an amp that I like more than the Splawn because not standing behind your products sucks, but unfortunately the amp does sound killer I haven't found anything that I like more yet.
