Allyn,
Is there more clean headroom on this amp when you roll down the guitar volume?

Did you have to get some kind of government permit for this weapon of mass destruction!? Geez that thing must be loud.

Allyn,
About time we see an amplifier with the name MEYER on it.
I noticed this AC/DC welder has a variable foot control output, very nice when starting and stopping the arc.
I like it and I can see the need for such a beast. Is the owner running a 4x12 stack?

Very nice! It looks like a modern amp. Can't wait to see it on stage.
Re: New 80 Watt Wreck done!
That is incredibly cool! Hopefully he can send in some live video shots of it in action so we can hear it in a band context.

It sure looks like it is a bias pot two white wires going over to the board on the side with two smaller caps and diodes wired to the PT.
