Re: AB165 Longhorn Mod and other questions

Re: SLO style 100 watt
Very beautiful amp. I really like the snake skin I'll be honest, I think it looks super 90s metal. Did you use the Onetics transformers? I'm pretty excited about the turret board build of one of these. And yes I agree, the time I spent with one of these definitely elevated it to 'classic' status in ...
