I have done business with John for a few decades. This is truly SAD ______. He was only 3 years older then me. http://www.guitarplayer.com/article/speaker-design-innovator-john-harrison-dies-at-age-59/148903 davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 10770 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, June 29, 2012 - 4:36 pm:    Sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. lbpesq Senior Member Username: lbpesq Post Number: 5174 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Friday, June 29, 2012 - 11:05 pm:    Sad news. I too knew John. The hemp cone Tone Tubby speakers he developed are fine speakers used by Santana, among many others. John was a character and I enjoyed hanging with him when I found myself in his shop. May the four winds blow you safely home.
