Carlsbro CS60 - Hermansson Amplification

[Hermansson Amplification]

I have a new amp project for you guys!

It's an old Carlsbro CS60.

Here is what it looks like on the inside:

Time to clean it out from the old components and put in some NOS components

This amp will be built on turret boards!:

Here are the turret boards filled with new components. I’ve come up with some new ideas to get more growl out of the distortion and still make it insanely tight.

And here is the finished result:

It’s a two channel amp with a tube buffered effects loop. Channel one is a crispy clean channel with shimmering highs, channel two is a super tight heavy distortion channel with a lot of growl and punch!


Here are some clips of the amp:

Hi! This amp is custom ordered from a guy in Ohio, so it's already sold.

Dude, you are seriously on to something. That's some ridiculous growl going on. You've got serious talent.

I love it, but why do you remove the markings from all the caps ? How would someone service that amp in the future if it was sold and shipped to the states for example ?

A guy in Ohio?!? Sweet, I wonder if he's close to me? I must track him down lol. But Henric, I have been watching your videos for months now and I have to day that you are just getting better as a builder! You have amazing skills and a great ear. Great playing too! I have decided months ago that when I get the funds for a custom job, YOU are the man I'm going to turn to. No joke, I WILL be getting in touch with you some day soon my friend. Keep up the great work!

My schematics is my trademark. So far I send instructions to techs or pay for the shipping back and forth if a local tech can't do the job. It's easy the measure and set up bias in the amps which is the most common thing.
