"As some of you have known I have been suffering from a bulging disc and pinched sciatic as well as spasms from the muscles surrounding the sciatic nerve in my lower back (very painful). I am very happy to report that I can finally sit the bench & work without being in pain!. Yesterday I was able to work from 7am-5pm pain-free!. Many thanks goes out Dr Jacob Skezas and Chiropractor David Kloch in Rochester NY for fixing me up - you are a Godsend!!

Our turn around times have been lengthened due to this. We whole heartedly appreciate your patience as well as your continued support while we are getting caught up. It won't be long now! Many thanks to one and all - back to the bench I go!" - Trace Davis, President/Founder

Look what the freight company just delivered! These are two (2) 4-Channel “R4-100” Voodoo prototypes that  were built for Richard Fortus of Guns N’ Roses. This was Richard’s main rig for the past year with Guns N' Roses. Richard is also taking these out on the 'Uproar Fest' this month. Richard is playing lead / rhythm guitar for the rock band 'The Dead Daisies'.

The amps were shipped to us to be gone through and to have a footswitch designed as Richard is scaling down his rig for the upcoming tour, which kicks off on Aug 9th. We initially designed the switching system to work with an external switching unit as he was switching several things at the same time. For this tour he wanted a footswitch that will work hand-in -hand with the R4-100's. I reached out to CBI & RF Chapman and they were kind enough to accomodate the quick turn around with regards to the parts that we needed asap (Many thanks!)." - Trace Davis, President / Founder

Note; the I-1x12" Iso-Cab is not a part of Richard's touring rig.

This video is from 'High Voltage Festival' when Richard toured w/Thin Lizzy. Voodoo Amps is on the stage for all to see & hear, Thanks Richard!!

 

Some behind the scenes tidbits; In the late spring of 2010 Guns N' Roses had just wrapped up a leg of the tour when Richard received a call asking if he would be interested in taking over guitar duties in Thin Lizzy from departing guitarist (and Voodoo Endorsee) Vivian Campbell as Def Leppard was gearing up for a Summer Tour of the USA.

"We built this amp as a V-Rock Single Lead 100watt and Richard toured with it for a couple years with Guns N' Roses. I later made some custom tweaks to it, which became the foundation for the two (2) prototype 'R4-100' amps that I built for Richard." - Trace Davis, President / Founder

Richard has used the R4-100's with GnR for over two (2) years and is now using then on the Uproar Fest 2013 with the band the Dead Daises! "If you love vintage Marshall's AND hot-rodded vintage Marshall's, this is the amp for you. I swear, it's like having my 4 favorite Marshall's in one amp. Dream come true!" - Richard Fortus of Guns N' Roses / Dead DaisesThe 'R4-100' model will be released shortly - Stay tuned as you'll see it here first!
