VHT changes name to Fryette Amplification

  • Thread starter Thread starter stephen sawall
  • Start date Start date
The company I work for sells products under many brand names. Brand names have value. VHT is a pretty well established brand name, I personally don't think selling it is the right idea, but I could be wrong.

I would have just made a VHT Fryette amp or Fryette series amp.....
 
As a VHT fanboy, I think it's a terrible idea.

Valvulator Buffer
GP3 Preamp
2150 Power amp
FB 4x12 cab
 
Does this mean SteveVHT is going to have to change is Screen name to

SteveSteveFryetteAmplification :confused:
 
It's starting to look like there maybe more to this story ?
I have never had a great day in court. :no:

VHT Changes Name to Fryette Amplification
Burbank, CA, December 15, 2008

Effective January 1, 2009 VHT Amplification, Inc., will be known as Fryette Amplification, a registered trademark of Steven Fryette Design, Inc. Fryette Amplification will continue to manufacture all of the VHT models currently in production including the award winning Sig:X™ amplifier, Deliverance™ amplifiers and speaker cabinets, Pittbull™ Ultra-Lead™ amplifier, FatBottom™ speaker cabinets, Two/Fifty/Two and Two/Ninety/Two power amps and Valvulator I™ Buffer + Power Supply.

In making the name change, founder and CEO Steven Fryette states:”Much like a musician who finds his own voice, my more recent designs have really captured what I’ve been searching for ever since starting VHT 20 years ago. These designs represent my personal vision of how an amplifier can interact with a player in a truly musical way. We’ll be introducing the Memphis Series combo amplifiers at Winter NAMM and these new products exemplify the use of our patented technology, years of experience and commitment to quality – all in an affordable format. For years I have thought about putting my name on a product and finally I feel comfortable enough to do just that.”

One thing for certain, the philosophy that carried VHT to critical acclaim will continue with Fryette Amplification - designing great guitar amplifiers that are really about providing a seamless, musical transition from one sound to another, empowering unlimited inspiration for players who wishes to discover their own personal creativity. That philosophy will be the foundation of every Fryette amplifier.

All the elements that made VHT an unrivalled amplifier will go into Fryette Amplification as well - innovative design, the best quality parts/materials and superior craftsmanship. These unyielding attributes and uncompromising philosophy result in an amplifier that provides the versatility and sonic quality that will appeal to every style of player no matter what their musical journey may be.

Fryette Amplification will continue to honor all warranty claims on VHT product manufactured before January 1, 2009. Fryette Amplification will exhibit at Winter NAMM 2009 in booth# 5596.

All those amps are gonna look mighty weird with "Fryette" written on them.
 
They don't look bad.....different for sure. I'm glad he chose to use a logo that's not in cursive! :)

I scored the last "VHT" SIG X for a customer today.....and D60 for me. :)
 
So all of the "VHT" models will still be produced but Steve will have a new amp line, is that correct?
 
Well I'm glad they don't look bad. And thank god for no cursive. I'd still like to grab a Sig:X...maybe I'll grab a pre-Fryette Sig. The "VHT" give it a darker tone, I've heard. :lol: :LOL:

All of the current VHT stuff as far as I know will continue to be produced....just new logo.
