My kiddos gave me an amp kit for my b-day/father's day...

Amp is done!
It is very quiet. Tonally, it has some Vox chime, wonderful edge of breakup tone.

RCA 7025 in V1
Mullard EF86 in V2
Mullard 12AU7 in V3

Some old cheap 6L6GC'S for testing right now...

I'll play it more this weekend and report...

Added the bias test points and upgraded the cathode and plate resistors for the cathodyne phase inverter to a two watt rating since I'm running it in parallel.

Replaced the final b+ node resistor with the proper three watt 33k.

I will assemble in the combo tomorrow. Have a work meeting this evening. Won't be home til' late...

All done. I'll make a clip later this weekend. Got lots of family visiting this weekend...

Got bored and did this quick clip:
