Oh wow thank for the heads up. It seems I've to but heaps in Japan before heading back lol. Both output and power transformer?

I generally use Hammond iron (PT, OT, Choke) & usually get them from Mouser.

As long as they have mouser I should be sweet. Hammond is awesome. I'm gonna miss the shops here though. Will take photos later as I'm going past these stores again before I get to work.

Probably gonna buy a few of these OPT, PT and Choke before I head back. They have brands like Sansui, Tango, Lux, General trans, eightric and then there's Toei which has been in the industry for quite a long time. managed to be friends with the actual owner so I'm gonna ask if he can supply these to me in NZ. At least the OPT, choke and reverb trans.

Amp powered on last night without any issues. Does anyone know how to post videos from Imgur to this forum?

Amp spec. el34 or KT77 10w SE
PT: Toei Custom 310-0(210ma)-310

Getting tired of making these cabinets lol.

Re: 2 green amps. Still need to tidy up the tolex before installing the corners, handle and grille

Had a bit of time to do the baffle and grille last night. I'm using the checked grille and brown piping. Came out nice. Still waiting for the handles and corners.

Can't wait to try all this goodness...

OOps I forgot the other amp.. Sorry for spamming. Next photo i'll upload will most likely be the photoshoot images

Man, they look awesome. Any chance you’d be keen to build a trainwreck rocket?

Thanks! Yea rocket is in my building list!

These finally came in. Medium decay for the two reverb amps.





Also was checking out the tube collection. Didn't realize I collected this much. Mostly from old stores unaware of the price increase.

Lotsa little bottles... Love those Tung Sol 5881s

Do you not label the controls on the front?
