Greetings from France
« on: February 13, 2020, 12:07:24 pm »
Hi everyone,

I've been reading the forum (and the whole Internet in general) for quite some time, pondering the idea of making my first guitar amp, and finally decided to move forward !
I do hope I'll find the time for it, as life is quite busy with two very young kids at home. But hey, let's start and see where it goes ;-)

I'm by no means a great guitarist, started my journey quite late, but I keep progressing at my place. I'm as much interested in practicing guitar as I am by the guitar and amp technology. I also love to design and build what I use in general.

I am a research engineer in the robotics field, I always try to learn new stuff, and I'm pretty sure I won't be disappointed here !

See you on the forum,
Baptiste

:laugh:
tube design/builds are ancient stuff  :icon_biggrin:
BUT, they are way more fun than the modern stuff
You're at the center of brain-trust here - welcome  :laugh:

I don't know if it's a commonly used term, but talking about ancient, I really like the KOOK (Keeper Of Old Knowledge) credo.
