The Truth About Vintage Amps, Ep. 40

Steve shares stories of meeting Leo Fender, Doc Kauffman and other legends from the world of electric guitars; he recounts of some of his days of vintage gear buying and selling; and he even walks us through the time he joined Dick Dale’s band.

Plus: What to do with a free Hammond M-3 organ, the New Bedford Whaling Museum and much, much more…
