Hey Kustom Freaks!

I'm wanting to pull together a nice wiki page for kustom! I would like all the input that I can get, history, stories, photos, and so on.

If you look at the one now its nice but not alot of info I would like to go more in depth on history, and model info. If anyone has a complete listing of models can you send it to me via email? also I can't remember who the admin is for this site but can I include a link to the VK website?

Thanks

Hi, I'm new to the board, I have no knowledge about the Kustom amps, but am willing to supply some images of mine if that's helpful.

My amp : K100C-8

Two months ago or so in vintage guitar magizine they did a two page black and white ( what a wast of time for them to not have color pictures of the amps) article on the founder Bud Ross and Kustom amps.
You can probibly contack them for back issues, as they always offer them.

Well starting with the basics
The What? What the company was and how it was started. Staring with the idea.
The Where? Chanute Kansas I know but alittle more info.
The Who? Bud Ross once again I know but more info.
and The Why? Why is it that Kustoms are so freaking awesome! and WHY was the company closed

I've been trying to find the serial No. breakdown. I know it was on the old forums but I can't seem to find it now.

Any info will be helpful and Nice photos, or old ads would be nice to include.

It's going to take sometime to pull this together due to my schooling times. Once the snow starts flying it will pickup!

One more thing.
Should I try to contact the new Kustom and include their history or should I just keep this Vintage Kustom (or Kustom by Ross)

Thanks
