The Amp Garage

Hi all, that is the same as the one we had. The cherry veneer covered the front edges just like that picture. Some of the veneer was stripped from the top and all the veneer from the front edge. The box was constructed with locking a dado joint covered with cherry veneer. If it wasn't the same one i...

Omar, I can mail you a CD. The pics I have are 137MB Zipped! :shock: Add Greg's and I think we will all be in good shape! The Owner of the Trainwreck Nat, is a super nice guy and hung out 'til almost midnight as we poked and prodded his prized possesion. We discussed cloning one for him to use for g...

What can I say? excitement ruled the night! I think we were afraid to wait and take a chance on Nat changing his mind! :lol: BTW, Nat is a great guy to talk to and a great musician. We thoroughly enjoyed his company! Allynmey P.S. the pics are totaling 137MB zipped up. Yeah, we took a couple! I thin...

Oh by the way....Kelly '90 is correct! Right down to the last wire! Good job Dave for the schematic. Saved us the time to draw it out.

Hi all, just got back from HeeBGB's late night TW Party :lol: 4 hours each way and worth every minute! The TW was named Francesca and it was made in 85-86'. After taking it apart :shock: Yes, he let us :shock: We took lots of pics and blueprinted the whole amp. It sounded great! After greg spent som...

Thanks for the layout Snide, I am getting old and can't remember where I get or put anything anymore. I like your layout and built 2 power boards from it. HeeBGB's power board is your layout also since I had both boards made by Ken at turretboards.com. Although it's a little big in it's current conf...

Good point Doc, I think this PHP-Nuke and it does have a pic resizer if I remember right. I will endeavor to resize prior to posting pics. Thes pics don't seem to be this big when I post the elsewhere. Who Knows...I hate computers. I own a computer business! :lol: Allynmey I removed the pic. I hate ...

Woo HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Allenmy - Thanks for the info. I'll try the acetone this weekend to clean up the chassis. Any tips on polishing to get rid of the small scratches without making swirl marks? Andy - You get just tell Nik that you would like a chassis like the one he made for me. However, my chassis is a little bit s...

gnugear - Yes, it is aluminum. Nik also offers stainless steel chassis. Allenmy - I'd like to see your layout. I'm having trouble trying to layout the power supply. Since I'm trying to be as close to a real Trainwreck as possible, I'm going off the grainy pictures of the real TW in the Files sectio...

Nice Omar! :D Nik does great work. I just got a 36 watter and a JTM45 Chassis from him and they are top notch! I may have to get a TWreck chassis from him now. Greg (HeeBGB) should be finishing his TWreck build this week and I'm sure he'll post pics. I'll follow right behind him (we laid out the cha...

Hi Ricks57, What version were you using in that build? That sounds amazing! Exactly what I'm looking for. I'm almost done with my A1A version. I'd like to know what if any changes I should make. I absolutely love the sound of your 'wreck.

Hey Funk, you bought an express Chassis from Nik? Was it done special or has that little minx been holding out on me?

Allyn

Hi Omar, I've bought a 18 watt TMB Chassis (steel) from Nik as well as an aluminum JTM45 and 36 watt chassis. Always top quality and all the nasty work is done for you! Nik really is tops to deal with!

Sozo Caps break-in. They do sound better after break-in! I don't think it takes 100 hous though. I built a hi gain 18 watt tmb with Sozos and it took about 20 hours to smooth 'em out! Here's a tip: Plug in a dummy load or one speaker wwrapped in pillows. Take a portable cd player or anything with a ...
