Elams1894 on YouTube if you would like to see some tube amp porn. I find them very soothing, sort of like Bob Ross but with tube amps.

Finally spending some quality time with the Peter Green AC15 cab :)

Cab jointed, all voids filled ready for tolex. Vents to be added first! Don’t forget BG!

Keep thinking of doing the stokes/ Paul c mod on my Princeton. Probably should just make the v1 cathode bypass cap a 4.7uf see if that sort out a bit of flub first
