Ampwares Gone???

TD_Madden · 08-17-2008, 07:25 PM

www.ampwares.com

The URL no longer works....anybody get the content of the Fender Field Guide before the site went away?

I noticed the same thing yesterday. I don't care if Ampwares is gone, but the FFG was very cool. Hopefully someone will host it somewhere else.

I even tried to call, disconnected. Website store was not found.

Fender Amp field guide, as well as other ref. material was still on-line as of this morning.

And now they're back. Weird. At least we can get to the FFG again.

Seems to be gone again. The domain has definitely expired. I seem to remember there being an alternate URL for the FFG. I'd like to get a copy of the FFG and put it online elsewhere, there's not another place you can get that data.

If anyone can still get to the ampwares.com website please give me the IP address if you can, I'll try to spider it.

Fantastic news. The planets aligned this evening and I was able to get hold of the entire FFG contents. I've got it stored away safely in a couple places.

Ampwares' web server is still running even though their domain expired. I've added a redirect from my site, if you go to http://ffg.audioartillery.com you'll end up at the FFG. When their web server inevitably goes down I'll put the content up at my site proper, but this was a quicky fix.

I just added the FFG to my DNS, so if it doesn't work for you right now it probably will by morning (DNS entries take hours to propagate around the world).

Here's another "public service" link to the site:

The whole site is back now, just in case no one else has noticed.

i've checked fot the field amp guide via ampwares a couple of times this past week and, as of monday, 09-22-2008, nothing

zhyla · 09-22-2008, 09:40 PM
