  • In this video, I take a trip out to Soundhouse Studio to play through Jack Endinos twin reverb, the very same one Kurt Cobain used for the recording of their first album "Bleach" One of the best sounding amps I've ever played through!
    If you're interested in booking time at this amazing studio make sure you shoot them a message through one of these links.

    I had the great pleasure of recording with Jack at Soundhouse in summer of 2002. I was a stupid English teenager trying to act all cool when I was actually terrified, Nirvana were my absolute heroes and visiting Seattle was a dream come true. Well our band didn’t end up famous but Jack was an absolute gentleman for the three weeks we worked together. He works super hard, he’s a very very smart guy and I have memories to enjoy forever. Great video, I hope you had a blast. :)

    How awesome is getting to go talk to Jack and play the twin Kurt used? I might be sort of jealous… Jack is eq-ing the twin while you’re you’re playing. Sooooo frickin cool.I’m gonna shut up andwatch the rest of the video. Can’t wait to hear the aluminum guitar! These tiny details that no one else has ever even thought to find out about are amazing! Thanks bro!

    I was in a metal band back in 2018 and we recorded 6 songs at Soundhouse, and Jack let our guitar player use this Cobain amp (it was a Cobain amp from bleach, so I assume its the same one). It blew my mind that we were allowed to do that.

    I’ve actually met Jack twice. One in 2009 I was a college student selling some gear on the old Yahoo Seattle Studios group. Jack bought it and I went to his old studio and he humored me for like 20 minutes, talking about the documentary ‘Hype.’ We also talked about some of his former colleagues who I’d rubbed shoulders with T the Art Institute of Seattle (now defunct) in ‘08. Then I met him later in 2012 for a few minutes with a mutual friend. Again he was casual, yet professional and friendly. A super cool guy who seems genuine and eager to engage with fans and music enthusiasts.

      @@kastro99 there's hardly a proper record industry, no music papers, much fewer live venues, no music sales Vs Spotify etc!... if the revival happens most people won't know about it, the band's won't make any money because of that and will have to jack it in if they want to settle down. Lots of good bands about, esp the punk harcore scene... it's just a total DIY ethic...wich those have always had.

    Love recording at Soundhouse. Never worked directly with Jack, but once when we were recording in there with Steve Fisk he was running late, so Jack came up and let us in and hung out and talked with us for a bit. Ending up getting our rhythm guitarist to record on that amp (which we ended up micing up in the bathroom lol). He also did an amazing Jello Biafra impersonation haha

    I’m a Nirvana nerd and I’m in the navy stationed in Bremerton. I read online recently that Jack Endino, before becoming a producer, worked at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. He said he picked that amp up in Port Orchard in this video and it gave me goosebumps. I go to Mainline Music in Port Orchard a lot. I’m not sure if that place was open then but if he picked it up there that’d be crazy
