You wouldnât believe Mico Klokoc Thompsonâs storyâitâs like something out of a rock and roll legend. This guyâs been hooked on electronics since he was just a little kid, probably around six. His grandfather used to tinker with tube TVs, radios, and ham radio setups, so there was always some cool gadget to mess with at his grandparents' house. Oh, and his grandfather also played a little guitar, which kind of planted the seed for Micoâs lifelong love of music and tone.
By the time he was 12, Mico was already reaching out to big names in the industry. He wrote to Ken Fischer from Trainwreck Circuits and even the artist relations team at Kramer Guitars. And get thisâKen Fischer actually responded and told him to stay in touch. Talk about a promising start!
Fast forward a few years, and by 17, he was on the road with Aerosmith, working behind the scenes while Guns Nâ Roses was the opening act. Can you imagine being a teenager and getting that kind of backstage pass to rock history? From there, he jumped into the Hollywood music scene, fixing tube amps and working with local guitarists at Amp Crazy.
It didnât take long for Mico to start rubbing shoulders with the biggest names in the game. He worked with Eddie Van Halen, Ratt, Poisonâyou name it. And when he moved to Nashville, he didnât slow down. Instead, he started working with country legends like Marty Stuart, Travis Tritt, and Merle Haggard.
But Micoâs not just some behind-the-scenes tech guy. Heâs been a key player at Trainwreck Amplifiers for years, partnered with One Control Effects and Amplifiers, and he even designs his own amps now. Heâs all about restoring vintage gear and helping musicians perfect their tone. I mean, heâs worked with everyone from Ted Nugent to Pat Travers, and even up-and-comers like Benito Di Bartolie and Dante Bonasera.
Micoâs the guy you call when youâre serious about tone. Whether itâs building a custom amp, restoring a classic, or just dialing in that perfect sound, heâs the one who makes it happen. Heâs a legend in his own right.

What a day! I teamed up with Music Therapy Laz and Magic Man for an unforgettable jam. We cranked up our Positive Grid Spark Mini Steve Vai amps, shredded through MXR Randy Rhoads pedals, and swapped between some killer guitars.
The riffs were flowing, the vibes were electric, and we had an awesome time connecting with the live chat. From jaw-dropping solos to gear talk, it was a music loverâs dream.
Stay tuned for more epic jamsâyou donât want to miss the next one!

Sammy Hagar is building excitement among fans with hints of something big on the horizon.
The rocker recently posted videos on social media featuring himself and Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony in the studio, captioned, âBig announcement coming up next week. The best of all worlds bandâwe are up to something.â The post also included hashtags like #newmusic, fueling speculation about whatâs to come.
In the clips, fans get a taste of what could be a new song. In one video, Anthony is seen laying down a bass line while Hagarâs vocalsâsinging âthank youââplay in the background. Another clip shows Anthony recording backing vocals, adding to the intrigue.
But it might not stop at music. The post also included the hashtag #moreshows, hinting that another leg of the tour could be in the works. Hagar tagged Anthony, guitarist Joe Satriani, and drummer Kenny Aronoff, who stepped in for Jason Bonham during part of the previous tour, suggesting the entire lineup could be involved.
Hagar previously told ABC Audio that he had plans to create new music with his Best of All Worlds tour band and had already collaborated on a song with Satriani. He also expressed hopes for additional tour dates.
The Best of All Worlds tour, which kicked off in July, showcased a mix of Van Halen classics and Hagarâs solo hits, leaving fans eager for whatâs next.
