Dozens of amps, but SF Quad reverb, Rick Johnson cabs. JBL 15, '64 Vibroverb for at home.

Ouch! Ralph has been at the center of my "acoustic American music" world for a long time. I simply cannot imagine a world without Ralph Stanley. This is gonna take a while to get used to. I think we all figured he'd just live forever.
