Sad news. After closure last year of Euphonic Audio, not sure where Rick Jones' passing will leave the upright bass amp world.

Yeah very sad news. I saw this on Bob Golihur's site last night. Family aside and thoughts with them of course, this is a real loss to the community...

Sad news indeed. Rick was a real gentleman - took the time to answer several of my noob questions in very helpful detail.

Lovely amps, lovely guy. I had the pleasure to talk to Rick over email and on the phone. He came across as knowledgeable and friendly. He had a good chuckle when I scheduled the phone call in GMT: "I had to look up what that meant!"

 

RIP.

I've got an AI Clarus Series 4 head and it's pretty darn good. One that I'll never sell.

Me too.

Clarus with a double shot.

Sounds fantastic.
