Well, if the Atlantic is your tribute to Ken Fischer ... then I would love to hear THAT go up against the Komet!!!

It's gonna kill. ;)

Hi Jackson

Noticed this thread today @work but didn't have much time, just had a look at your site right now, and if I may give you some educated advice (been working in web programming for the past five years now), the text color (#777777) is _way_ too dark for a black background. I managed to read it after I disabled this css rule, but only because 1/ I knew how to do so (ask yourself how many of your visitor will...), and 2/ I really was interested enough. Making this change permanent on your site is a 2 minutes job, so if you care about having your texts read - that is, if you care about selling your products - you know what you have to do.

PS: Send me a PM if you want detailed technical instructions - it's *really* a very simple thing to do.

Welcome from me too. I was very pleased to see a clip with a 339. Whilst I am not in the market for m amp right now, I was impressed and I have some friends in the USA that I shall mention your to.

Changed it to #999999 better? :)

Thanks!

Just having a nose around your website Brad, what are the other two listed amps going to be like? I imagine the Union Jack will be another British flavoured model, what about the atlantic?

The Atlantic has and will continue to be my version of a Trainwreck...sort of a tribute to Ken Fischer. Very American sounding cleans with very aggressive British overdrive. Version 2.0 will introduce a feature that has not been seen before in a tube amp. Shhhh.... ;)

The Union Jack is getting a complete overhaul. Nothing will be the same except for the name. It's going to be my first Master Volume amp with a very useful and sophisticated overdrive tone. Not quite as compressed as the Dumble overdrive but definitely not a Marshall type of overdrive either.

Think of it this way. The Atlantic is like wearing jeans and a t-shirt. The Union Jack is like wearing a tux. They are both clothes but each have a very different attitude. :)

nice amps and an elegant way of reducing weight.

talking of Trainwreck amps, here's an amp I built based on a 'Wreck, but with a fair few deviations (it's SE for a start)...

Wow, now that's being reactive  :lol:

Yeps, that's better - still too dark given the texts length IMHO (I'd just remove this style as far as I'm concerned and leave it defaulting to #B9B9B9 - as defined in 'body'), but definitly better.

It might be cause I'm using an Apple 24" LED display, but it looks perfect to me. I have the display set to maximum brightness too.

I'll try it tomorrow @work on the 19'' LED - here I only have an pretty old 17'' - and I'll let you know (I'll check this with our best designer / UI expert - he's a great pro, and a very decent guitar player too )

Cheers man - I'm really happy with the way that amp turned out.  It was a one-off custom job for a forum member here.

Ok, didn't have a chance to check this with my buddy designer yet , but here @work on a about-decent 19'' LED display, it's perfectly readable with #999999, so you'd probably better stick to it.
