The Amp Garage

I'm new here but have been using forums since Deja News was a thing...Hopefully I'll have something worthwhile to contribute. Looks good Stephan. One suggestion, maybe mention the users here are from all over the globe and consequently many speak English as a second (third?) language. This makes pho...

An update... After no updates for 2 weeks on shipment progress of the chassis/boards from the Netherlands Erwin contacted the shipping company. Long story short we finally got an update that it is at US Customs and is scheduled for delivery Monday. Big THANK YOU to Erwin! With the encouraging news o...

Maybe take a look at the schematic for Mojotone's Studio 1 Watt kit. https://www.mojotone.com/Mojotone-Studio-One-1-Watt-2-Channel-Amplifier-Kit It can use either a 12AU7 or 12BH7 tube that pulls double duty as PI and Power tube. Super simple power section that would be good starting point to tailor...

As I work on the BOM and parts lists I find myself needing to make decisions on various parts of this build. One big decision that will have a big affect on the normal use is the type of power cord. The chassis has allowances for both a hardwired or IEC type removable cord. Charlie Wilson made a pos...

Hi Ian, Yes I had picked up on the 2 x 47uf in series is 23.5. I was mostly just letting everyone know I'm not attempting a "purist" replica type of build. Actually I'm building this to ultimately go to my 14 year old son. He's already a pretty talented player, better than me (not saying much there ...

Thank you Erwin and Reel for your help! Well....looks like I've had a change in plans. I didn't realize Erwin's boards aren't really fully suited to a 124 build when I purchased them. That's ALL on me, in no way Erwins doing. His filter board is more suited to something like a 183 build that utilize...

Need a bit of help. I've been looking through ODS builds but haven't found one that specifically uses Erwin's chassis and boards. Can anyone please point me in the right direction? I have been working on the BOM putting together shopping lists at some vendor sites and need a bit of information. Spec...

Where are you from?

If you leave in Europe, I am curious at if the price for the trannies includes import taxes etc?

NB I'd recommend Erwin, too ...

I live in El Paso, Texas, USA. I'm afraid I have no idea of what the import taxes would be.

I've been looking at different transformer options. Current pricing I have found: $325 shipped for Heyboer/Mojotone. Pricing on website. $410 +shipping for Pacific Transformer. Quick response to inquiry. Mercury Magnetics similar or more than Pacific, pricing on website. Merren hasn't responded to p...

Received an email from the Netherlands that I have a package on the way. Thank you Erwin for the prompt shipping!!!

Hello forum! I've been lurking here a while soaking up as much knowledge as possible. I love being in a room full of people much smarter than me (not that hard :lol: ), I keep hoping some will rub off on me. I've been thinking about my next amp build for some time. Finally decided to try #124 and am...

I dug it out of my garage and took some pics. https://i.ibb.co/RNTSzNq/20230626-181517.jpg https://i.ibb.co/Y2c4mX8/20230626-181604.jpg https://i.ibb.co/BV2rHBk/20230626-181641.jpg https://i.ibb.co/w6RYwBF/20230626-181535.jpg https://i.ibb.co/z4KfmTY/20230626-181449.jpg PM me if interested.

Did you find one yet? I replaced a 12" 16 ohm speaker in my son's Crate Stealth GT50 some time ago. Speaker is fine just wanted a different one. I'm not sure if it's this exact speaker you're looking for, let me know if you are still looking and I can post some pics.

Hello all. My first post here, thought I'd show you my main guitar. 20230225_105500.jpg 20230225_105456.jpg 2019 Epiphone Dot Deluxe (335). Totally stock here but I've been collecting items to add to it. A couple of Seymour Duncan reverse zebra pickups, Graph Tech nut and saddle inserts, and Grover ...
