Sad News - Ken Seikel passed away

Post by Graydon »

Guys,

Some of you may know Ken Seikel. Ken was a gentleman from North Canton, OH who was building an 18W way back in '01 when the group first started. Unfortunately, Ken passed away last month from the cancer that he had been battling for about two years.......

Ken and his brother Larry visited my booth at the Michigan Guitar show last fall. It was a pleasure to meet in person one with whom I had emailed quite a few times. It makes my heart very heavy to tell you guys of his passing.

When I built my red 2-10 combo which was the first 18W that I ever built, back in '01, Ken had a couple pieces of the gold aluminum mesh. He sold me a piece and that was what I used on my red 2-10 combo.
