Ceriatone Chupacabra Transformers Quality??

[nitro]

To me looking at the Ceriatone Chupacabra Transformer they look like they are not high quality or quality for that matter.

You can tell that by just looking at them huh?

ive built over 2 dozen ceriatones. (various models) only seen two with trannie issues and Im not even sure it was a quality issue. Might have been user error. If he will let you order it without and install the trannie of your choice here in the states.

I don't think he sells the Chup that way...

Is this because there's no bell ends on it so it looks cheaper?

jerrydyer: with which other quality transformers you can compare the Transformers use on Ceriatone amps like the Chupacabra?? great thread so far, since you built so many Ceriatone amps and you hint that Nik's would send a chupa without transformers to you you have ab special design transformers for this amps or do some upgrades to this amps?

My Chupacabra sounds great. No issues here.

I was just teasing steve. but if you need it like that I think he would for me. not 100% sure though but. As far as some sort of a/b them on some magical machine, sorry sir I have not. All I said was ive built over 2 dozen ceriatones and not one has had a problem. Ive replaced 2 , one OT and one PT but the reason they went down? it would be impossible to know for sure. I like the classic tones by magnetic copmponents. almost all the amps I have in stock now are using those trannies. Ive had great success with Mojo's heybowers and Hoffman amps trannies (prob heybowers since he is friends with all those guys, and I like the ones CE sells. I dont really buy into a lot of what some other guys do about trannies. I could be wrong ,, but my ears tell me the ones im using are great so ...???
