What'd they do, replace and/or re-badge their entire product line?

Yeah I don't mind it so much though. Still the heads rule. But at namm didn't they still have actual VHT heads there too?

Word has it that Steve Fryette defaulted on a $200k loan taken out from AXL amps, which used the name VHT as collateral.

Fortunately, Fryette has retained all his amp designs, so yeah, they'll just be re-badged with the very un-metal name and logo.

Sure looks that way. Damn, I love that logo.


"In exchange for a loan in the amount of $150,000 from AXL, which VHT has not repaid, VHT agreed, inter alia, to a contingent assignment of the VHT AMPLIFICATION and VHT trademarks and the goodwill appertaining thereto. On May 7, 2008, the contingent assignment becam an actual assignment when VHT defualted on the loan. AXL subsequently recorded its ownership of the VHT AMPLIFICATION trademark and the goodwill appertaining thereto by filing the assignment in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Despite AXL's repeated demands that VHT cease using the VHT AMPLIFICATION and VHT trademarks and transfer all the goodwill in the trademarks, VHT continues to use the VHT AMPLIFICATION and VHT trademarks. Upon information and belief, VHT's continued use of the VHT AMPLIFICATION and VHT trademarks constitues trademark infringement and unfair competition in violation of laws of the United States and the State of California...."
