Somewhat off topic, but did you know that Standel also had a line of guitars? Here's my Standel archtop made by Sam Koontz - terrific instrument...

| That address must have been the old Standel building which was across the street from the new building they build on Santa Anita Ave. When I started working there in 1971 they were already in the new building. We were still building Standel amps, along with Randall and Gibson amps. I remember we still had three of the early amps that Robert Crooks built in his garage in the 50s. They we just in the corner of the service department collecting dust. The good old days. |

| I had a Studio model when I first started working the road. It just wasn’t powerful enough to get out there; but! I have wished many times over that I still had that amp-the tone! |
