Joel at BBG got some great footage of the Electro-Harmonix factory, makers of the Voice Box that we showed you a few days ago.
Apparently this little Mom and Pop in Long Island City makes most of the vacuum tubes for the world; an amazing feat in today’s transistorized world. Great stuff from a great company.
