About

ToneSpawn is a small team on a mission to create better tools for musicians. We recognize that even while we are living in the golden era of gear, there are still many problems that need to be solved.

John Hamulak

John Hamulak heard Eddie Van Halen and knew THAT is what he wanted to do. Although never quite paying the bills, John has played semi-professionally for over 20 years. He delayed adulthood for as long as possible but now lives with his wife and children and guitars in Garland, TX. He continues to play daily and gig regularly… and is still chasing that tone.
