This is an AWESOME bedroom level amp with all the sounds of a vintage bassman.
Does a nice grind in a tweed style and put a BLUES DRIVER pedal up front and you got a match made in heaven.
BUT there is more, it has a passive FX loop, so put your delay/reverb for the ultimate RIG.

Hi Timbo,
Really nice work. (Those snap lockdowns have really brought out the best in your work)
Did you do the cabinet?
Kind regards
Mirek

Thanks guys.
The project is a joint build with a very good mate of mine.
He did the design of the board as well.
Would you believe the "TWEED" covering is actually tolex
