The Fralin Model with an Eminence 15' Legend series Speaker.
Per Lindy's Recommendation our Fralin
Model comes the Eminence Legend
series speaker. After weeks of testing, Lindy's found a
speaker he prefers over the Weber Alnico. The new
Eminence offers a tighter more versatile speaker that
retains the high end sparkle Lindy is famous for. We
totally agree with Lindy decision to go with the new
speaker.
Don't worry as we know there
are people who prefer the tone of an Alnico speaker and
still offer the Weber 15' high powered Alnico speaker as
an option. Please let us know when placing the order as
this will add an extra cost to the amp as well as
delivery time.

When Lindy called us
about an idea he had for an amplifier we jumped at
the chance. Being avid users of his pickups for
many years and the ear Lindy has for tone was just
the challenge we needed to design and build an amp
he would put his name on.
After several conversations, Lindy wanted an amp
voiced primarily for clean full bodied articulate
tone. It had to perform well at a low volume, be as
light as possible and cool looking.
We made several visits to his shop in Richmond to
play and listen to many amps in Lindy's impressive
collection. Only then did we get a good sense of
what it was he was after. We finally agreed on an
all tube design that is totally hand wired.
After several prototypes the
design evolved into a single channel, cathode
biased, 6L6 powered amp with built in spring reverb
and a bright switch for Lindy's P90s. Careful
attention was paid the overall size and weight of
his design. He insisted the amp be as portable and
lightweight as possible yet still produce the warm
rich low end responce tube amps produce..Lindy's
custom made custom made 20X20 cabinet had to be
designed along with an integral diffuser to tame
those beamy highs. Lindy's speaker of choice was a
custom made Eminence 15' Legend series for big clean
chimey tone, a nice compliment to his pickups.
Lindy spared no expense when it came to the kind of
components we used , hand wound Mercury Magnetics
transformers together with Gavitt cloth covered
wire.
We back this amp up with a 10 year limited warranty
on all electrical components except tubes and
speakers.
As far as how the amp turned out,
well here it is with Lindy's name on it . Let me
tell you we couldn't be happier. This is a Tele
pickers dream
