Man that looks great.

They actually taste terrible! I could make you a key chain out of them though…

Steve

That would be one delicious looking key chain.

Very cool, thanks for posting that Steve, very nice! That looks like a ton of meticulous work, lol, wow. What's the timeframe for just the actual build itself, not including all the testing?

Cool - glad you enjoyed! I'm gonna give a rough guesstimate here and say between 24-26 hours for what you see in these pictures... I'm gettin' faster/more efficient though.

Now of course that doesn't include testing, or the time it takes to populate the boards. As I mentioned I have another individual who does that at amazing speed...

I'm sure someone could figure out my design from the pics, but I don't care anyway...

Just to finish things out...

Amp is now volume tested, effects loop tested, put in it's black headcase, packed and ready to ship! I just LOVE playing this amp LOUD! I have all the controls set to my recommended settings and always keep the OVERALL MASTER on the back COMPLETELY CRANKED before shipping. If the buyer doesn't want it that loud when trying the amp the first time it is up to them to turn it down.

I always recommend people try my settings first and see what they think and then mess with things from there. The manual is full of useful info, so I also recommend that people read that - I bet nobody does though...

Here are some pics after I put it in the headcase:

Here is just after I tested the effects loop and everything at MAX OVERALL MASTER volume!

Here is the pack:

Very epic and detailed post.
Incredibly clean work! I have been inside many an amp head, and that is some of the most pristine work I have ever seen. Beautiful!

Much appreciated!
