Check
out the Fralin Model reviews in these top guitar publications.
We
are currently offering the Fralin Model with our own custom made
Eminence 15' Legend series Speaker.
As per Lindy's Recomendation our Fralin Model
comes stock with our new Eminence Legend series speaker. After weeks
of testing, Lindy's found a speaker he prefers over the Weber Alnico.
The new Eminence offer a tighter more versitile 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 speaker
as an option. Please let us know when placeing 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. The cabinet size and tone were a big deal for
Lindy, he insisted the amp be as portable and lightweight as possible,
so a 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
