Is this another mystery TAG member?

I see in his disclaimer that he is not affiliated with any companies - yet he omits TrainWreck from the list. Is Stu-Daddy sanctioned by Ken's family?

Using the TW logo is a real stretch...

It doesn't ruin much of anything for us methinks but I doubt they will be using that logo for too long..

I wonder why he also doesn't use the Fender logo on his Tweed amps.

It popped up while I was yahoo image searching Trainwreck liverpool then Trainwreck rocket. I curious to see what I could find on Ginger, the 2nd page was that website. The image was the logo pic.

It does seem like it could be a TAG member or at least a site visitor, since they offer the NAT chassis Dumble and TW.

EDIT- It doesn't "ruine" at least not direct cause and effect, but it does give the estate a reason to hastle the forum. As well as any KF built trainwreck owner's, tech's, etc. a reason to distance themselves from sharing knowledge.

No one has "right" to hassle the forum about anything. He isn't here. Just some guy putting a logo on a clone. Guys a clown.

I didn't say they had a "right" only a reason and all to often they confuse the two which ends in a hassle.

So let me get this straight. Is it the use of the logo or the two week turnaround that is going to ruffle feathers? :?

There is no reason at all to hassle this forum, just because a member posted the web-site link of the 'bad guy' who 'ruines it for the rest of us'. That would be like charging a guy with being a pimp just because he writes the name and number of a girl on the bathroom wall.

I think the issue would be soley with Stu-Daddy and his use of the T-wreck logo, and they should THANK SELLOUTR for bringing it to their attention, albeit indirectly. Aside from that, Stu-Daddy can build and sell all the T-wreck clones he can...and more power to him. There is no copyright or patent on the amp, is there ?

logo on clone

Post by steviea55 »

IMHO, Selloutrr is right. No one should put the logo on with-out permission from the family. However he may have that agreement with them. :roll:

I received a threat from Stu-Daddy that he would sue me for the slanderous statement I posted: the disclaimer statement he posted on ebay which he then modified. Also saying my posts could be construed as threatening because I wanted to take a road trip in a motor home?

I am quite sure the rest of you understood that I enjoy visting with fellow amp builders and have plans to attend amp shows when I retire but apparently I am not welcome to bring a motor home anywhere near Michigan so I quess I better tell Bruce Egnator I am not coming to visit his shop. :(

Boy this guy is a piece of work.
