Nah, torment would be sending DM a bill for the 'actual hours' put into building the amp.

Um yes....

There's a pic of the cab on here, Capt Black tried to get some sound clips when we used his studio but you'll just have to take his word on what he thought of the amp... other than that, patience is very much a key ingredient of this project (and has been all the better for it).
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

Here is a photo of the final chassis with the key bits mounted on it. It will be house in a carcass wrapped in high grade black NZ leather and has a mirror finish front and read panel. It will have blue glass KT88's.

Here is a bad shot of the matching cabinet... the head will look similar with the logo and triangle pattern cut in the front panel, and triangle only in the rear panel.

Yeah you'd never guess I used to be in a death metal band.... actually I was trying to get away from that sort of thing with this amp, I've just realised I completely haven't.... :oops:
