My first amp build, 2204 based.

[Steveo]

I wanted to post my amp build because this forum has helped me out quite a few times. Its my first amp and im really pleased with it. The layout isnt perfect because as you can see its a 2204 in an slo chassis which is all backwards. I learned a lot from it for the next one though. The output transformer is what heyboer called an SLO wind so maybe its got something different from the normal 2204 OT.

Wish I could say my first build looked that pretty!

still have the chassis from my first build. gutted a raven solid state 1x12 combo for a 5e3 kit build. didn't have any real butts it even a powerful drill (let alone chassis punches) so i just drilled a bunch of holes and used pliers to work out the pieces. turret board wasn't even attached to anything... just floated suspended by the wires attached to the offboard components. i actually gigged with it quite a bit until it mysteriously stopped working.



gutted this awhile back for other builds. the transformers ended up in my oft-modded fender excelsior

nothing like yours... good work!

Wow,it shows how determined you were to make it, thats cool. I was able to borrow a nice greenlee step bit from work for the bigger holes. I did have a drill set for the smaller ones. The chassis was $50 off of ebay from russia and it came with the grills. I didnt realize how different things would be by using this chassis though compared to my original layout. I made some mistakes in wiring i didnt know until after like wiring the presence pot just a little bit wrong will give you around 350vdc on it I kind of rushed the woodwork because i needed to get it enclosed before the kids got to it. Thanks
