Sal's Tube Amp Repair -- I'm so happy with how they turned out. Holy grail shirt for me, wanted this for a loooong time.
Shipping these out with Sal's Amplifier Tips like a yahoo article your parents printed off the internet for you to read.
Last pic is Sal himself.
Hey y'all, wanted to share the (fellow) nerd shirt I screen printed.
Some folks may be familiar with Sal Trentino, Neil Young's amp tech and builder of the infamous Whizzer. Some may know him from Trentino Amps if you're lucky enough (imo). Some may even have had their amps serviced by him in the bay area, San Anselmo, CA.

Morning all - wanted to share a shirt design I screen printed in honor of the late great Sal Trentino from the Bay area. Some may know him from his work w/ Neil Young and helping build out the first Whizzer. Some may know him from his amp builds (Trentino amps). And some may know him from his shop in San Anselmo, CA. Shirt design lifted from an old picture of Neil. H

Howdy folks -- wanted to drop a little update. I reached out to everyone personally, via chat or email that had mentioned a want for a larger size (XL & XXL) and wanted to let everyone else know they are in and available, just in case I missed anyone.
I have (3) Smalls, (11) Mediums, (6) Larges left plus the restock of (6) XLarges, and (13) XXLarges. And I am also able to do international shipping now. I'm not sure I'll do another run of these so if you have any interest/desire, I hope you pick one up. I gotta say it's been a fun process, I've gotten a lot of positive feedback and just in general kind words, so thank you for that. Love this community, and I'm gonna keep it going. More on that later, or you can see some upcoming designs in the shop.
Again, another huge thank you to you all for the nudge to start this project, it's really fun.
Link to purchase these are in my profile page, Body Shop on big cartel.

Hello all -- about a month or so ago someone posted asking about info on Neil's Tinkerbell/Topanga All Stars/TNT shirt. There was enough information talked about here for me to dig into it and it spurred me on to screen print my own. I've always wanted to make bootleg band shirts and I've always wanted one of these so all of this was enough of a catalyst to push on. I think they turned out great and there seemed to be some interest that if I made any extras, some folks here would want one, so I did. If anyone is interested there's a link in my profile page, I made a little shop to order from, but most of all, thank you, I'm stoked to finally have one of these for myself. Now let's have a little sun on that palm.
