Derek Bernier!!. He was a great dude!.... he loved his Splawns and Engls!! He turned me on to Splawn back when you could get a brand new Marshall 1987x that Scott would modify. @1300.00 out the door including the mod. Actually I think they were 1250.00. IIRC. good times back then! Scott Splawn is a class act himself! His amps have "weird mids.".

according to the intergoogles..
I actually had my Splawn with me at NAMM the year I met Mark Cameron. We had a mini ampfest at our hotel room. Kage, Gainfreak, Bob Savage, Mentoneman and Steve Henning iirc, and some others.. Mark brought a few amps and I had my Splawn. I liked my Splawn, but his amps sounded a bit better to me and everyone else. Scotts amp hung in there pretty well but I sold it and had Mark mod a 2203 for me which was a beast! This was in 2005 or 2006.
The biggest surprise and the amp maker that got the most wow factor that year aside from Mark, was Randall Aiken!! Damn.... His stuff sounds glorious and he is such a mild mannered good human!
