I scored an old Carlsbro amp with good iron for cheap and built a 50W plexi-ish amp from it.
The choke is huge so sits before the OT-CT, diode rectified, 460V plates, Frondelli master and otherwise JTM45/JTM50 front end (still tweaking cathode bypasses and feedback resistor).

Looks really good. The basket weave has a good look to it for the front panel. Makes it look older like a 66 Marshall somehow. Just my opinion. Nice use of the old pa head.
