I've been seeing lots of posts on Facebook in the Dumble Clones and Tones group. They sound and look good, but I can't find any other information about them. There's no web page, just a FB page. Has anyone heard about them? Link below...
 
I am getting 'content not available' message. Do you have to be a member of that group to see it?

There's contact info on that page. Clearly a small builder. Why not reach out to him directly or send a message through FB?

The lack of new activity in the past 2 years makes me wonder if he got conscripted into the military at some point or perhaps has gone into hiding.

This happened to another builder I was working with last year. I basically lost $1K between parts I had sent him and the payment I put down on a guitar he was building for me. Sadly, that's nothing compared to the loss of his workshop and his freedom.

I would warn anyone to be careful dealing with builders in Ukraine right now. Ukrainian artisans make great products, but the political situation is very volatile and things can change quickly.
 
I've communicated with Mr Voznyak. He's in a relatively safe area near Poland. The amp sounds grateful to me, but he doesn't have a web page and I can't find a single customer review. The "mini" putting out about 20 watts sells for $700.​
 
If he's selling something you're genuinely interested in, feel free to take the plunge and let us know about your experience!

I don't think you're going to find too many people outside of Ukraine that have experience with one of his amps. In fact, it doesn't seem like he's built very many amps at all!
 
I tried to contact him for purchase. He seems like a nice guy with a good, reasonably priced product. He sent numerous tempting videos. However, PayPal is blocked for "the region." I've moved on.
