  • R.G. Keen - MIA?

    Does anyone have a current email and/or other contact information for "Big Kahuna" of Thomas Vox amplifies - R.G. Keen
    His website for publications and parts, especially his redesigned circuit boards, http://www.thomas-vox-repair.com/ , is closed and there seems to be no current contact information on Geofex.
    The email I had in my Contacts doesn't seem to be active any longer either.
    I have a Berkeley III and a chance for a "husk" Beatle but need to purchase the rebuild boards if possible.

    Thanks
    Michael

    Yeah that is odd. I think I imagined RG posting on Nevetslab’s recent repair of an old Vox amp but he has not posted since February. Last activity on MEF was in mid July. Hope he is well.

        R.G. Keen's website, http://www.geofex.com/ , is still on line. Several links that I clicked do work. However, the Vox specific links that I tried were all dead.

          My phone stopped working, wouldn't turn on. Turned out it was a charging issue. Just to be safe, I wrote down all the numbers in my phone book. Found a number for RG, so I sent him a text. He says he's still kickin'. Ya never know with Covid, anyway ... He says the web host for his Vox stuff changed the way the website had to work and he hasn't had the time to rebuild it. The repair books should be available on https://www.thebookpatch.com . New info for Berkeley III out soon when website is fixed.

            That's a relief!! You said it, what with Covid all over the planet taking prisoners and leaving carnage in its' wake.
