Behind The Bench
Brian Kocian Jr
My name is Brian, and my passion is servicing the instruments of local Texas musicians. Not only are they my peers, but they are the reason I founded Busy Bee’s.
I've seen first-hand the amount of work it takes to make a name for yourself in this industry.
You fight daily to gain another rung on the ladder. Everything from massive record labels, to rampant AI usage, is pushing against you, but you put in the work.
The last thing you need is for your tool of the trade to go silent mid-show, scratch during a volume swell or fade, eat strings during solos, or any other catastrophe that can't be fixed between the verse and chorus.
That's what I'm for.
You do the heavy lifting, I'll keep your gear going.
David Neal
With over 25 years of hands-on experience, Dave’s seen just about every problem a guitar, amp, speaker, or piece of pro-audio gear can throw at a technician. Tube amps that won’t bias. Guitars with wiring nightmares. Speaker cabinets that have been through one too many gigs. Mixers that crackle, hum, or just plain give up. He’s fixed them all.
What sets Dave above most is the care and love he puts into every piece of equipment that comes across his bench. Each piece is treated as if it’s one of his own. You won’t get a runaround or an unnecessary upsell. You’ll get an honest diagnosis, a straight answer, and a fair estimate before he touches anything.
AllAmpedUp is an authorized warranty service center for Line 6, Ampeg, Mackie, and DigiTech — which means he’s earned the trust of some of the biggest names in the industry, not just local musicians.
True dedication to his craft, fueled by a passion for live music, Dave is the man for all amps and pro-audio equipment.
