Leo designed the new line of hybrid Music Man amps which are still to this day, very good amps and very underrated by many, but that's another story for another time. Started in 1971 by two ex Fender employees they originally worked under the name Tri-Sonix and then Musitek after Leo Fender, who was silent partner due to his 10 year non compete contract with CBS after leaving Fender, suggested the name Music Man and came on board completely in 1975.
