    Hey there Colleen, I like the work you do. I took the furniture out of living room , burnt it , bringing in all the military World War II equipment so I can conduct The Philadelphia Experiment also the aliens have been trying to contact me so I need to build the radio to call them back. Totally freaked out Sunday when I found a flux capacitor at a antique flea market ,Doc Brown said we can go back and tell Marty he missed a note when he was playing Johnny B Goode , and be careful with that Chuck Berry guy that will steal the sound. Colleen let me know if you can help me put this spaceship together.... (love your nerdy girl show it's totally cool) I'll start saving the money . PS Tesla said to ask you which do you prefer AC or DC ?🤭

    This is so cool.
    I still have the circuit you drew for getting rid of an old death cap on an early Fender in one of your videos from 4 or so years ago - I re-drew it for my 5C1 with rotary switch - and upgraded to 3-wire.
    I've since modernized all the electrolytic caps and upgraded a 1w resistor to a 5w, also moving it a little bit away from the tube socket to keep it cooler, following your advice.
    Let your videos be everyone's inspiration.
    Thank you.

Oh good God, the old radios in the kiss poster and what a freaking cool garage oh my love to hang out there I wouldn’t watch your work cause nobody wants anybody watch them work but just hang out you know , listen to or whatever. Wow, what an incredible place your house looks very comfy. Have a great time. Keep up with the most high-quality professional video you made it. Excellent thanks again. I’m really nice to kinda hear your story and peer into your house a little bit it’s a beautiful place man really

    Born and raised in Chitown and also a guitar player/teacher (civil engineer by trade) blah blah. Love the channel. We definitely share the same style. My ears perked up when I heard the recreation of Hendrix’s Like a Rolling Stone. I still have the Hendrix and Otis Redding split album I used to play on the record player in my parent’s basement and I have a fond memory of hearing it. I have restored cars, built engines, transmissions, restored houses and any and everything else in between you can think of EXCEPT electronics. It’s the one thing I never figured out and I am still fascinated by it. Beyond home and automobile wiring, electronics is still such a mystery to me. I am glad you are keeping the craft alive! I love vintage. 🤟🏻 🎸 Looking forward to your future videos.

    This video was so well done Colleen. It felt like it was filmed in the 1970's. I had to go back and re-watch the video to catch the anachronisms (time errors). There was just a few: the TV (90's), the kitchen appliances (late 90's or early 2000's), the Fluke Multimeter and last but not least the imprint of your cell phone in your front pocket when you and your dog are taking a walk...😊 With a last name like Fazio you're pretty much destined to have your own line of amps. Keep rocking...absolutely love your channel.

    Hi Colleen. Nice vid and dig what you do. I love valve amps too and have even designed and built one from scratch. I am from New Zealand and there’s just not enough of that vintage gear around down here to scratch out a living and live the dream unfortunately. I spent 4 years in London and worked for studio rental company. I used to keep a fleet of JCMs, SVTs and AC30s running. But also got to work on Fairchild 670 compressors and U47 mics.
    Those were great days.
    Everytime I tune into one of your clips I wonder if I should get back into it one day.

  • @IanGratton
    @IanGratton 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Colleen, I find your videos so relaxing and interesting - you have a true passion for your field and its great to see you breathing life back into these amps and devices.
    I'm a software engineer by day and for those working hours I'm immersed in the digital world. Whilst I consider building software almost a creative artform - the raw materials we work with are far from tangible - 1s and 0s flowing through registers, digital circuits and network cables. When my work day is done I love nothing more than to spin up a record. Its an occasion, I watch the ECC83 tubes in my phono preamp rise to a warm glow, drop the needle on that slab of wax and listen to that very real analog sound as my speakers move the air in the room - no bluetooth or streaming devices in sight. I'm also very lucky to be in a band with some like minded people - its a conduit for us to re-connect back with the physical world in our quite disconnected modern lives. Playinig really loud through EL34 valve amps and vibing with your band mates is a feeling like no other.
    Keep on keeping on.

    Ohhh golly!!! I loved this. 50 years ago my young bride, Diane and I lived the vibe in your excellent video. We were up in Bellflower CA north of Long Beach and would take our Honda Sport Cycle down to Newport Beach and go clubbing for Bluegrass Music and great seafood. Or a little further to Laguna and play art patrons in the old restored sports car we cherished. I played in a festival band, bass and lead guitar. I built aircraft for different firms and Diane was a manager of a florist shop. We had a beautiful Kerry Blue Terrier for walks at Venice Beach.
    It was a wondrous life. Hank looks at you in your advert just like "Harley" would look at Diane before a walk. From what I see, you are living a very best life. It would be dumb to ship my very old original Fender Hot Rod DeVille 212 out there just for a tune up. BTW... we are still living best lives here in the cold north... still playing in a band, but now Di is a retired Pastor. Go get 'em Colleen! Wellll done!

    Lucky for everybody there that one of the old school amp techs trained you. Here in Auckland, NZ the tech everybody trusted is pushing 80 now and only takes on a few jobs on select amps. He began to train somebody, but that person went off the rails big time. There's another tech that might be good, but he's getting on too. A city of 1.7 million people might end up with no amp tech. There's a few capable modders and builders, so maybe one of them will have to step up and take on amp work. That or we will all have to go the modelling route. :P (or we will have to convince Jason at Headfirst to move back to his homeland -- his country needs him lol)
