He designed the toughest most durable, and great sounding amps imaginable........ Check this Video - you won't believe what he did to his own Amps!
Thanks for posting this brother.
I’m his son and all I have this show on is VHS and CD Rom lol! I’m showing my son now as he hasn’t seen this in a while. So thanks again.
Cheers 🍻
He was a genius, Devan! You should be very proud - he made a lot of people happy......
Just the person I was looking to chat with! I am an up and coming musician from Nova Scotia and was wondering if a 4x12 70s cab of your father's amplifier would be a good investment to start with? I'm not too familiar with them but I have heard great things about them. The uniqueness of the brand really reminds me of when John Fogerty of CCR was running a kustom amp from 69-72. Nobody had really heard of them until people realized that he wasn't running a big big name but a unique one! But my question is if they have their own distinct sound with the ability to emulate fender and Marshall sounds? Regardless I must say your dad's work was just great!
My favorite amp I just recorded with.. cheers to you and yours!
Love my ygl-1 🤘🏻
Needs more views. Thanks for the great upload!
People today don't appreciate the music at all, touring is almost dead, guitars and amps are slowly going to the road of death... Such a shame...
Great to see SongBird music shop again!
The summer of 1974 I was 15 years old and purchased a well used 1966 yba 1 for $ 150.00 the money I earned from my first summer job. I still have it , I have many other amps but that yba -1 is still my favorite .
I miss songbird. Thanks for posting this!
great tribute day :). ill bet mr traynor was over the moon ........ cool respect given
My traynor yba-1 head was shipped from Canada to LA and the cabinet was broken in three places, power transformer was bent and leaning over. . . . BUT IT STILL WORKED!
I was there that night. It was a blast.
Starting to get the love over here in the UK. The sound of a decent distortion pedal through the 50w/100w versions blows Marshalls away. Reverbmaster 4x10 cab is the pick of the bunch for me
Thanks for this gem
Good old Songbird Music.
So many weird guitars would pop up there in the cheap. I really miss that place.
more than happy with my ygl1 Traynor!! my first amp was in 1984 Traynor bloc 100g...loud as hell all solid state amp!
Gonna buy one for sure now
i have the traynor ts-50 from 1979 still rocks perfect! today
What a fantastic interview, thanks for posting this Dave
Just picked up a 76' TS-25 and gotta say, blows my Fender Stage 112SE out of the water for just pure rock and punk! Cant wait to get some pedals thru it
I love my personal Traynor....a 77 YGL Mark 3 Combo
Samuel - They're all GOOD!! They're all GOOD!! And they last. I'm living in Mexico now, and I just saw 2 Bass heads last week @ The San Miguel Blues Festival. Both players were using different speaker cab's, but they said that the heads are basically indestructible!
Built like a tank!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Can't break'em, can't shake'em. They just keep on workin' no matter what you put'em through!
A legend doing the legendary!
1977 ygm 3 and 5 watt Garnet stencil amp here. In stereo...Canadian gems and my 2 workhorse rocker amps. Best ive ever owned.
now that's an amp built to last!!
Wicked amps. Canadian made. What’s not to love
‘75 MK I here!
My first real amp in 1967...sang like a tank on steroids.
I was fully expecting to see it explode on impact.
holy crap it didn't
and it fukkin worked after too.
woooooooow
how many other amp manufacturers can do this with their amps?
Not a damned one and let me tell you none of these were lightweight either. Massive transformers
@@brentstewart59 now, the only issue I see is overheating since they are a Canadian manufacturer, what if you were to let's say, take a traynor bass amp and fire it up in Arizona in the middle of summer? They don't have fans and I had a friend from down south who said that would be a limiting factor in him getting one
@@jaymeselliot8181 the old ones had fans... not sure about the new ones
Like the Canadian Ross rifle, the most accurate of ww one, stolen by British, South African and Australian snipers but thrown away by Canadian troops as the slightest bit of dirt caused it to malfunction! Not so good in muddy trenches before an assault but excellent if you waited in ambush to dry gulch your enemy's. Sounds almost as good as a Marshall but harder to break
6:50 george stroumboulopoulos??
6:20, the myth is real.
Love my ygl-1, way better then a fender blues and not made in china
