My wife just laughs when I say I sold something.
She just waits me out, until I say, I bought.....................

Hey now I have to add Richie Hall as a great Trainwreck builder.

If Wreckboy says that Express sounds good then it must.

I can't claim to have played more than a couple of Wreck clones.
But I do own a real Express, Liverpool, the original Prototype, the DLM, and Ken's experimental Komet. I know what they sound like and "feel" like. I've played them for years and years....at rehearsals, jams, gigs, and concert settings.
Richie gets my vote....great sounding amp. He is a please to work with, ironing out details are a breeze. No ego issues, just great work from a great guy!
From listening to sound samples, I also like the sound of Allyn's Express build.
Allyn seems to have done his home work on all the cosmetic details.
Aloha,
Wreckboy

Yeah Richie has helped me plenty with advice and provided a Cherry cab from his friend as well as I needed a faceplate for another type of wood presto he sent it. Great guy and knowledgeable.

Wreckboy aloha, my friend is from the big Island Craig Shig.... he is retiring in near future and coming home to the Island, lucky guy.

Still looking for more info on the DLM :!:
