"Fatboy Effects" by Ricky Don Vance (RDV)

[joecool85]

Ricky Don Vance, RDV, passed away on February 5, 2010.  He was an avid guitarist that was into diy electronics.  He was one of the people from diystompboxes.com that suggested someone start a site all about solid state guitar amps - without Ricky, SSGuitar.com very well may have never come to be.  He was also one of our Moderators here as well as someone I was honored to call my friend.

Ricky shared many schematics and sound clips online and I have collected as many as possible.  

Enjoy.  We'll miss you Ricky.
