Says it has a serial number?!!!! I thought they were all named instead of having a serial? I wish I had $27k to take a look! LOL!

Edison is a 5 min (or less) ride from Colonia BTW!

Funny that Ken/Ken's wishes/Ken in 2005 come up as topics of discussion.

Back around '05 I was contacted by a guy from New Jersey claiming that he "built Trainwrecks and Komets for Ken Fischer and Komet". I couldn't locate contact information on Ken but Komet was easy enough. Who's the nice German fella from Komet? Anyway... he (Komet) said, "We have no knowledge of (the individual in question) and he is certainly not part of the Komet organization. If you would care to pass along further information we will pursue this..."

Said Individual had some pretty convincing looking "Wrecks and Komets" in a workshop setting.

Said Individual later auctioned several of his "Wrecks" on eBay.

While I'll be the first to admit my grasp of reality is tenuous at best :lol: that episode had me further questioning my perception of reality.

The moral of the story... $27k worth of "good and valuable considerations" is pretty damn real. I'd make good and certain $27k worth of cash buys $27k worth of goods and not a cheap seats trip to Disneyland... :twisted:

We have a good collection of Trainwreck names and pictures on this forum but not a complete list of all names given by Ken. Has anyone ever seen or heard Ken list all the names he used?

It is authentic. I almost bought that amp!!!

Sal changed his mind at the last minute and I snagged Marisa instead.

I wish I had 27k!


Good amp and it WAS serviced before Keny died.
