Okay let's see if I can upload a few pics....
Green jewel lamp, of course!
wow, that is righteous looking dude
Nice work Scott.
I bet that thing sounds even better than it looks!!!!Love the quot;*****y / Sweetquot; switch
Very nice. I just hope a certain amp company doesn't say something about the dress of it. But then again, that company hasn't used that style dress in over 20 years.
Nice work.
IMO
the sweet/*****y switch should be on the front.
othervise, looks realy nice
wow, that is high class, friend
you gonna put it in the truck and drive it to him?
clips !!
t4d
My Les Paul and Strat just jumped outta their stands, and ran to take a closer look at the computer monitor!!! haha
How much for one of those? What power tubes ended up sounding the best in it?

Did they scream, quot;Daddy, can we have one? Can we? Can we? Can we? Huh? Can we?quot; LMFAO.
Very, very nice my friend!
I ended up going with Groove Tube KT66HP's. They ended up costing a bit more than the Chinese, but they just sounded better.
$850 plus shipping. Might have to bump that up if I keep having to go with the Groove Tube KT66HP's.
It also sounds pretty good with EL34's and a weber solid state rectifier. You can't see it, but on the inside there is a switch that changes bias resistors depending on running EL34 or KT66's.
Davey, the ***** Switch needed to go on the back as I am kinda out of room on the front. It's just a little gain boost. Someone will likely end up probably leaving it in one position most of the time depending on taste.
Maybe you should make that gain boost footswitchable?
Nice looking amp for sure though, love the looks.

Nice work.
Iquot;m kinda counting on the fact that I do not believe anyone has trademarked black tolex heads with gold piping yet. Maybe I should!

My goal is to keep these things affordable. The more stuff I add, the more work I have to put into it, time equals money thing.
Thanks for the kind words.
For what it's worth, I now understand why all you Marshall-heads get off on this tone. The entire Bluesbreaker KT66 thing never really interested me that much.
WOOOOOWW!!!!
so thats the amp you've been talking abt , alex? no wonder you're being so impatient abt its arrival.
Scott, how similar is the sound to the Dr. Z Route 66 you had? Same type of amp, I presume? How would you describe the gain on the B1tch setting? Like a JCM 800? How tight are the lows with your Les Paul?
This Thread Is Worthless Without Soundclips!
