Re: Is it true that Leo Fender couldn't play the guitar? Dick Dale advised designing the dual showman - if i'm not mistaken. He blew the speakers of all his previous fender amps, so he wanted leo to make something that could withstand his playing style. Legend has it - i believe - that leo made quite a few amps (50 as i recall:???) before dick was satisfied and the speakers were no longer blown...   At least, that's the legend... and that's what dale says himself... was in some fender frontline magazine...     I guess something like that is on his site too, http://www.dickdale.com or something.     SVS.
