N(DIY)AD. It's done.

Now done. Details here: http://juansolo.demon.co.uk/stompage/ampage.html

Martin has done a cracking job of the cab. Blonde and Oxblood won in the end. I decided to go with a separate head and cab to isolate it. Cab will happen later.

That looks fantastic! Are you happy with the end result or is there any tweaking to be done? Very impressive looking amp in any case.  8)

Chuffed with it. The only tweaking done was a little re-biasing to run 6L6s. Not going to do anything else.

I was umming and ahhing about dropping a reverb in there (a pedal based one) but in the end, it's easier just to plug a pedal in (in this it'd require an additional PSU adding to run it). If I was making one from scratch I'd probably drop one in anyhow as the one we use does a spookily good impression of a spring.

Looks lovely mate! What a tidy looking head! Great colour combo too. Congrats!

Very nice! In the words of the TOWIE crew, I am Well Jel.

It looks gorgeous. Now we just need some sound clips  :D

Hope it sounds as good as it looks!

Do you use the Belton brick?

[juansolo]

New much smaller brick yes. It's a very simple circuit which is based on the recommended schematics from Belton/Accutronics. Single knob. Does what it should simply and well.

Got one left for sale. Martin snagged the other.

[PhilKing]

Looks great John.  Long spring reverb or short (or both)?

[juansolo]

He got the other single short one (we made two of them).

[dave_mc]

very nice indeed :)

I've not seen the smaller bricks, where did you get yours from?

I bought one of the larger bricks, but haven't got around to using it yet.

I had a pedal with the older brick that developed a very strange (intermittent) sample-and-repeat problem that would only be fixed by killing the power to it, but I thought it sounded pretty good-- have been wanting to build a pedal with the new one.

Love those ampmaker bits-- have wanted a couple of their transformers for a while!
