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.

I realised I've watched his stuff before. Such a perfectionist and explains it so well.

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!
Yeah ok it’s going to be Emerald Green

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

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
