May/June 2020: New! Speed Shop 5F4 Tweed Super / 5E7 Bandmaster
Fantastic Speed Shop Tweed Super 5F4 Heavy Relic Combo featuring 2 brand new A10Q AlNiCo speakers. This amp sounds amazing and is fitted with all the best componentry from Rondo's stash. NOS everything (where applicable) and the very best new production parts everywhere else. NOS tube set (featuring micro-matched vintage Tung-Sol 5881s available). The star of the retro show is a very rare vintage output transformer that adds the extra swagger. This new Speed Shop amp was in development for several months and is essentially a stock - but carefully tuned and dialed-in - 5F4 Super. Much more versatile than vintage/stock while retaining the great Tweed cleans, but with a JTM45-style overdrive that was always in its DNA waiting to be set free. Big, bold, and in-your-face 5F4 Tweed Super / 5E7 Tweed Bandmaster tone. You can truly get lost for hours playing this Super with every guitar, pickup selection and guitar/amp settings. The Speed Shop Super will accept 5881, EL34, 6L6GC and more. Currently running EL34s @ 42 watts RMS. One-off custom build prototype (featured in the demo videos and photo below) is available. Also taking new orders. Contact Rondo for more info.

February 2020: Rich Williams of Kansas!
Hanging with Rich Williams and Zak Rizvi from Kansas. Rich is a Speed Shop P2P Combo owner and a total gear head! (Also a very nice guy.) Great gitbox players and a great band! Terrific Point of Know Return show!

Rondo working out acoustic guitar parts with [the legendary!] Obie O'Brien, in Ob's beautiful new Sanctuary III Studio, located somewhere on the foggy country moors of wintry Pennsylvania!
February 2020: Cool new studio track from Rondo, featuring all '68 Gibson 335 parts (with a few '57 AVRI Strat fills in the 2nd verse) through a P2P head (stock 6V6GT power) and A12Q speaker. No pedals or effects (a little reverb in the mix only). Guitar straight into the amp, SM57 straight into the recording system. The P2P is dimed and channels jumpered. Download the MP3 here.

What Customers are Saying...
"I have been playing it nonstop lately and I am loving the myriad of tones I get out of this thing! I'm enjoying noodling around on it so much in fact that I find myself stopping to sit down and play in the mornings before work now too. I can't thank you enough for building me the P2P Deluxe Combo. I can honestly say that I enjoy playing the amp more and more, each and every time I use it. I have some other vintage style amps that I enjoyed playing through; but while they sound great and all, the tone on your Deluxe absolutely destroys them, hands down! The amp sings man!" - J. K.
