Amp brand name pronounciation thread

PainKiller8191 · 01-10-2006, 12:14 PM

Alright people, I hear too many people going around playing brands they can't even pronounce, so I decided to make a thread where people write phonetically how the brand name is pronounced....

brands such as

hartke
behringer
ampeg
ibanez
aguilar
Gallien-Krueger
rickenbacker
and any others u can think of

the101er · 01-10-2006, 01:01 PM

Hart - key

DaveTNG · 01-10-2006, 02:32 PM

Am - peg

How else is that pronounced?

yea cause the name apeg originated when the owner created a amplifier that had something to do with the peg of a upright bass lol....

And I used to say bay-ringer but now I say more like bear-n-jer
