I was looking for something in my old email inbox and I came across the time I sold a small Vox Pathfinder to Joe (I think his screen name was Jofa on the old site). He used to build pedalboards...FB page still up but looks inactive...just wondering...nice guy

He built me a very cool custom Tonebender pedal board that looks like a '57 Chevy.

I remember Jofa, I sold him an AD201 many years ago here via the gear trade thread. His youtube channel looks like it still has some activity in the last year.

When I was selling up all my gear before leaving the USA for Thailand, he answered one of my craigslist ads. I was in Central NJ at the time and he was going to be at some conference at a local community college campus. We met there and he bought a small Vox amp I had. I think he lived near the Jersey shore further south of there. Seemed like a really nice guy.

I am pretty sure it was Joe Faraldi. He was ( is ) a super nice guy, and I believe the guitar I sold him was for his son.
