This the wood I use and the joints for woodworking. ,this should give you idea of the look of curly birch
The back cover has not been stained or varnished
The nob missing is the treble .no matter ,, 40 watts
The amp for now is connected to 4 x 12" organ speakers. at 2ohms.
more pics later when I get some batteries

Tom,
Beautiful work! Is that a darn knot that popped on you on the right side? Those are hard to fill!!! Please do post more pics as you finish. Will you be doing a cabinet with the same wood?

hi
thanks
Yes that's a knot . The router dug it . I dig it ,,lol.
well my daughter needs to buy a speaker,,,,, and from there , not sure ?
for me in my environment one the of longest lasting wood joint that I see in furniture .Canada,, Eastern Ontario.
and easy to do but with screws and glue . but I use antique square nails instead .I like old stuff.

nice; I like the 'old school' circuits a lot also. nothing fancy in a B15 except a lot 'o tone and a lot of 'get er done'.
congrats

hi
I buy the rough wood and i use a planer .and old tools .from the good old days when things seemed to me ,
to be made better...
.
the tone of this is something else, with old tubes in their poor condition 6l6 gc runs at 60% the rest are fine .
The sound reminds me of the bass on the album Fragile ,
YES Round about ,
Today is new tube day for her . just the 6l6 tubes and ill get some pics

Hi
Well it has the new tubes tung-sol 6L6GC STR.
the led lights are 220k ohm ,4 leds possible 12 volts, diode ,,,to 120 v ac ,,,string ,for the pilot light
The amp is now pushing 44 Watts. and Jen is enjoying it ,, her new born baby. .
and the 4 X 12 inch organ speakers are sounding ok for now .better then their pa speakers.
good sound .
I would like to buy a vintage pair but the ones I like are $140 for the pair,, old 6l6gcs
These tubes cost $54 Canadian...
A few pic of Jen's amp and John's amp ..John s amp's reverb is amazingly strong :m12.
the tremolo intense,, :m7
Both done with curly yellow birch with a red wood ? mahogany trim.
some cosmetic work left .the reverb tank needs to be bagged and maybe not in the cab..
