“Justin loves the new Notch pedal. It’s on all the time!! Robert had asked all the band to turn their stage levels a bit. Justin was concerned that he’d lost a bit of body from his amp but then found that the notch has added it all back again. Very happy.”

de Lisle Quadralux Reverb Amplifier

Pony Bradshaw is the songwriting project of James Bradshaw. A southern Rimbaud, the nomadic Bradshaw grew up drifting due to his father¹s career in the military. He continued that drifting most of his life, but for the past decade has called North Georgia home. On his debut album, Sudden Opera, there seems to be no fear of being lush or sparse, dense or loose. Space is welcomed along with high drama. His songs are the nomads now. Inspired more by the 19th century French novelists, poets and painters than modern troubadours and pulp fiction, Bradshaw seems to be looking to make a new way for himself; a way that is not dictated by trend or time.

“This amp crackles with life. Every note rings out with a serene beauty that can only be attributed to some kind of mystical force. It’s hard to imagine or accept that such a living breathing sound can come from wires and capacitors. I would be surprised if I dropped it and it didn’t bleed because tone so pure must have a heart. When you play that giant open E chord, your hair will stand at full attention. Every hair and pore will anticipate that next volume laden assault of pure unadulterated tone. I would question the sanity of any guitarist that doesn’t fall head over heels for one of these delectable masterpieces upon first exposure. Surely such an admission would be an act of musical treason; psychic vandalism if you will. If I were king, I’d mandate that everyone pay tribute to these magnificent amps with a World Wide de Lisle Amp Appreciation Day. I play country, rock, blues, and something loosely resembling jazz and I can traverse these styles with relative ease with my 35P. Get one, but be forewarned, it will not just be a commercial transaction, it will be a pivotal moment in your musical destiny. Are you ready?”

“This amp is the most versatile amp I have ever had the pleasure to own! The variodyne control is genius! Finally a wattage reduction design that works, without any noise or sag… From the dovetailed pine cab to the customized faceplate; this amp is a work of art. Amazing how the amp brings out all the subtle characteristics of different guitars. It’s a very inspiring rig and I can’t wait to turn it on every night. Thanks Jer and de Lisle amps for restoring my faith in American made TUBE TONE!!!!”

His lyrics resonate as memorable and gut-punching reflections of hard truths that spark human connection.

Quinet’s new record, Buckeye, immediately received high praise, as the singer-songwriter moves effortlessly from Americana, to country, folk, and rock-n-roll.
