Guitar Gear

I’ve been very fortunate to have met some really awesome people in the industry. One of them is my friend Jeff Aragaki. Jeff contacted me out of the blue one day to buy advertising space on my site. I replied that I didn’t do that because I didn’t want to commercialize GuitarGear.org, but I’d love to evaluate one of his amps, and if I truly loved what I played, I’d put up his banner for free. That evaluation led to testing several amplifiers over the past several months, and we’ve established a growing friendship.

Jeff is one of the most humble people on the planet. He has a warm and unassuming demeanor, and never has anything bad to say about anyone. He’s just an all-around great guy. And the man is very smart. He has a successful electronics business that he’s converting into the amplifier business that is Aracom Amps.

Recently, Vintage Guitar did a “Builder Profile” on Jeff Aragaki that Jeff was kind enough to share with me. It’s a PDF, and you can view it here.

I’m so jazzed for Jeff! He’s the kind of guy that you can totally trust, and he’s got a real passion for the amps that he makes. Way to go, Jeff!
