Clean sounds better than my clean on my BE-100 for sure, though i also like the stock clean. I just prefer yours.

Gain is always hard to tell on videos, but it sounds pretty close to my updated 2015.

Great Job!
 
Sounds great without a doubt.

What speakers are you playing through? Did I miss that somewhere?

My BE100 sounds quite different through my 4x12 loaded with EVH Greenbacks on top and H30s on bottom, than it did with V30s in there. Speakers affect the tone so much that it's hard to compare apples to apples without a similar speaker config.

I'm using al V30s. I have a set of 65w cream backs I was considering putting in the top 2 slots. What do think is a better match

That's exactly what I'm running and it's awesome.

I would try that, to smooth out the ice pick mids. I had V30s in bottom and EVH Green backs in the top. When I swapped the V30s out for H30s, it made a HUGE difference. Really made it less harsh and extra creamy and crunchy.
 
I run GB's up top, and V30's in bottom of my Bogner cab. I also built a new particle board back, contrary to popular belief it sounds better than the birch back with the poly fill.
No ice pick what so ever.

The problem with WIMAs is that they are all radial lead, too many physical size options, etc. Bogner , Dieze, and Henning uses them
Radial lead WIMAs are awesome for PCB.

Well you're certainly no Billy Blades but I GUESS the build looks ok....


LOL! I kid! Looks killer and sounds GLORIOUS!!! Really awesome tones there man.
 
Thanks all. I was hoping I wasn't going to blow this up when I turned it on. Yeah no billy blades here. Definitely took me out of my comfort zone, but lots of smart people helped me understand things. I have Lots of respect for people that do this for a living and I make to much at my day job. Not sure what I want to do next.

I thought about doing a scaled down version. The switching on the real deal is mind boggling.

Really nice job man!
Sounds awesome.

What schematic did you use as a base?
I'm interested in building one too.
