Before joining Vintage King, Darrin Fendley learned the ins and outs of maintaining a successful recording studio first hand, as a founder and owner of busy Roshambo Studios in Hazel Park, MI. From engineering and producing to teaching the gear (and buying more gear!) all the way down to cleaning, maintenance, and paying the bills, Fendley did it all. Today, as a VK National Sales Representative, he draws on that experience to address his clients' needs and give them the best possible options for their own studios.

Fendley first heard about Vintage King Audio while working with Mark & Jeff Bass, the team that wrote and produced many of Eminem’s early records, at F.B.T. Studios. The Bass Brothers had been purchasing gear from Vintage King, and Fendley was impressed with the VK sales reps’ level of honesty as well as the overall style with which Vintage King conducted business. So, in late 2005, Fendley began working in Vintage King’s shipping department. By year's end, he accepted the National Sales position and has been working directly with Vintage King’s clientele ever since, applying his real-world knowledge and personal passion for vintage recording gear. When he isn’t talking shop with customers, Fendley has been known to fire up the grill and cook a mean summer meal.

Hi Darrin,
Thank you for amazing service, look forward doing business with you again. Gear is unfortunately a thing you can never get enough off :)

All the best :)

Darrin,
I just received the UA Apollo yesterday and I wanted to say thanks for recommending me the quad.This thing is awesome! Quad turned out to be a better fit for me as you mentioned.I'm lacking sleep today because of messing with this thing all night yesterday lol. Wish you guys the best and I hope you'd help me out again when I need some other gear purchases.

Thanks!
