Peter Wade Biog
Peter Wade’s interest in/obsession with valve amplifiers and the valve sound formed in his teens, playing in a host of local bands.  His first proper job was repairing band equipment for a musical instrument importer and he then became a partner in “Everbimes,” importers of Randall amplification and the original and sole importer of Leo Fender’s G&L guitars.

Moving into the computer industry, he worked on “DEC” Mainframe Computers, large company Intranets and Operating Systems. He gained a Masters degree in Interactive Multimedia Production from Huddersfield University in 2000.

Peter then worked as AMS Neve’s London Engineer with clients including Abbey Road, Air, Pinewood and the BBC. He has now moved full circle, from cutting edge network and computer technology back to valve equipment.  He runs his own business in West Yorkshire, UK “Revalver,” specialising in repairs and modifications to valve guitar amplifiers.

When not in his workshop, Peter can usually be found in his home studio playing guitar, keyboards and drums - to his own satisfaction!
