I haven't drawn up a schematic because the amp is pretty much identical to the Express. Just need to change the pin numbers on the tubes and adjust a 3 resistor values and that's about it.

Looks like i will have a Lil Devil headed my way soon! Can't wait!

It will be part of a custom wet/dry rig I am putting together...I will post some pics of the rig once it arrives.

Thanks Dana!

Almost done with my Lil' Devil. I am just way too slow getting stuff done - too many projects not enough time :oops:

Here's some pics of my cabinet so far. Found some quarter sawn pine at Home Depot of all places. The dimensions are 7" x 7" x 13.5". The front panel will have matching pine.

So far I've rubbed Watco (natural) over the entire cabinet. I plan on shooting tranparent honey amber TransTint in lacquer over this. But, I kind of like it the way it is. I don't know. Hmm... What to do...

My taste has changed a lot lately as I have a new foundness for select pine boards and your amp is a good example of what can be done with pine.

Looks great. :)

I bought a finished amp (with a twist, pun intended). As much as I would love to someday, just haven't branched out into building anything yet. Maybe someday as I read about averything you guys discuss!

I will try to make some clips once I have it installed in a cabinet.

I am REALLY looking forward to it!

That looks great!!! Can't wait to see your combo cab. What speaker are you throwing in there? The 6" Weber?

For now it is going in a Marshall 2x12 combo cab. It will have a Celestion G12H30 for the Devil. I also have a Mojoverb reverb unit in it that goes to a Jensen. Wet-dry baby!

I MIGHT see if I can stuff all of that in the original 2x8" Mojoverb cabinet and get replacement Weber 8" speakers for a very little grab n'go.
