The Amp Garage

Ok so, travelling for work last week up near Troy, NY. Found two music stores up there worth hitting if you’re nearby. Collar City Guitars. One of the guys there named John builds fuzz pedals in the Fuzz Face style with some nice tweaks. You can get Germanium, Silicon or Hybrid point to ponit wired ...

18 years for me. Some things just feel like home. This place is home for me!

Anyone know the specs on this transformer? Or a replacement? Not the Mercury Magnetics please. I can get a hammond for $60. The Mercury is $160. Mounting points are 2.5”x2.0”

Miles,
Been worried about you man. Glad you're ok.

Call you soon!

Pedal power jacks? 2.1mm barrel type? Have to be what is in the pic. No substitutes!

Alibaba has them but it 1000 piece min

Not sure of the difference in specs but there is a big price difference.

When I was at Jelle's shop we played it through his bench cab with an EV12L and then he brought in a 5E3 tweed cab with a rocket 50 in it. It was good with both speakers but I preferred the EV. I think Jelle prefers the rocket 50 iirc. The Greenback is what I had laying around. I do have an Italian ...

I've got a vintage greenback in there. Actually it is a recone

Mark,

It's still very 5E3 just think more aggressive with more headroom. I know that sounds contradictory but that's my story and I'm sticking to it

So Jelle pretty much built this for me. Even supplied all the parts except for the iron, chassis speaker and cab. I just put the lacquer on it today and re-assembled.

Amp sounds awesome. Thank Jelle

Ok so the unit itself is now in 2 pieces. The base and the head. The base is probably 3000-4000lbs. It is not a small item. I would hire a rigger to get it done but $2000 is better in my pocket than someone else's. So we have a plan to rent a lo-boy trailer. We have the use of fork lifts at my broth...

Unfortunately no! So, instead of paying someone to move the unit for me (cost about $2000) my brothers and I are going to move it ourselves. Getting all the equipment together and all the brothers is proving to be more difficult than anticipated. Tentatively this Wednesday or Thursday. If it doesn't...

But it sounds a ton like them. Enjoy!
