Hello All;
I would like to invite everyone to come out to the SWSGA Steel Guitar Show in Phoenix Az Jan. 14-16 2016..
It will be another BIG show this coming January.
I am sure, Billy, Troy or Fred will be posting the show details in another thread soon for everyone.
The Telonics room will be well stocked so you are welcome to drop in & try out any of the products you have been thinking of buying..
As you know, Dave always has a couple of surprises & this year will be no different..
Stop by & say Hello to Dave,Sophie,Amber, Brenda & the others from Telonics + myself..
We always look forward to seeing all of our friends & meeting new folks too..
Let me know if you will be there..
Thank You

Hi Ranger Ron-
I am bummed that I can't come to Phoenix this year due to the tour schedule with Wayne Hancock. I am enjoying the sound of my Telonics neodymium speaker, however, and getting lots of positive comments from various sound engineers.
Hope to see you in Dallas.

I am sorry to have to miss Phoenix this year, but here's a nice memory from Sunday morning of last year's show, with some of the usual suspects. Bobby Black is recovering from an auto accident so not sure if he will be there this year...

Hello Rose;
As I said above in a previous post - we ALL will miss seeing you in Phx this year but we are all musicians and we do understand..
Thanks for sharing that great picture!
I would have to title that photo above -
" A Rose between 3 super nice men & all 4 are great steel players" !!!!!!
I'll bet a few of you out there thought I would say something else - huh ??
Who else is coming this year ???

Here is an update from Dave to all Telonics amp owners coming to this SWSGA 2016 show next week:
Telonics is offering a unique free service to any of the current owners of Telonics Amplifiers.
If they will contact us next week, before the show, we will be happy to update their units, and install our new tilt-foot assemblies,
and if their schedule permits the added time, we will install our new advanced reverb circuitry - all at no charge.
Just have them contact Sophie so she can work with Ron Blair to get them on his schedule.
Contact Sophie at Telonics:
Email - sophie at telonics.com ( all 1 word w/at sign )
Phone - 480-892-4444
(It will be necessary to transport them all in one lot to the Telonics laboratories for the rework, so there will only be time for one round trip during the SWSGA show.)
We now have some five (5) models in our TCA500 Combo amp series, we will have all the models at the show and we will be providing the back line amps for the main show.
Thanks for reading & let us know if you are coming to this show - it's getting closer!!
