The Amp Garage

I see what Tom is talking about.
The two 6247's listed on the schematic are actually 6267's which are EF86's.
I think it's just a typo.

Very nice! I've been curious about this amp for a long time. A friend of mine who is a member here actually played the silver alligator and remarked that it was the best clean sound he had ever heard from a guitar amp. I've built a very stripped down 50 watt version. No reverb, no tremolo, with a 12...

David, I'm using a 12AX7 PI with 12BH7 in the cathode driver section on my bastardized attempt at a 50 watt version of the pentode amp. It's got a little over 400v on the plates which scares me a little. However, I've been using it for a couple of months now and have had to crank it up pretty loud a...

No access through the back of the cab, and the dreaded 4-pin connector that I always seemed to lose. I put a quarter-inch "barrel" jack next to the 4-pin. Works just fine Very well made though. Solid as a rock and heavy as all get out. Heavier than a stock Marshall 4x12 by a good 20 pounds. That sa...

Expect a back-breaking beast!!! I had one in the mid 70's. Speakers were the square back eminence. Are you getting the amp and cab, or just the cab? A lot of people really liked the cabs. I did not. No access through the back of the cab, and the dreaded 4-pin connector that I always seemed to lose. ...

Had a really bad experience opening up for this band years ago. They were real jackasses to everybody in the club that night, then went and hid in their van when they were pretty sure they were about to get their asses kicked. They always reminded me of a half-baked fusion band that figured out that...

I've built a couple of fuzz faces. Finding the right pair of transistors and getting them biased right is the trick. Not that hard to do, just don't expect to throw one together and have it sound great right out of the box. I've heard stories of Hendrix trying dozens of them before he found the one ...

Love it!!
That finish gives it a really cool kind of Paul Kossoff vibe.

Rumor has it that JBL was selling the T4B cells until these guys bought out their entire stock of 'em and started selling them at a significant mark up. Drip Electronics used to sell a complete LA2A PCB including the T4 cells for $165.00. Looks like they're out them currently, but they might still h...

Here I am again with yet another ridonkulously expensive solution....

Some of the old ShoBud amps had faders:

Totally sucks!
I would definitely familiarize myself with tenants legal rights for your state.
Still, it's never fun being in a contentious relationship with the landlord.

Especially after getting a couple of shocks : Yep. 400 volts + accidental contact = pain! Seriously though, the math side of tube circuits can be a tremendous tool in your tool kit. Just remember to listen with your ears and not your calculator. We've all seen the threads where someone claims to he...

That means it's either me or not me.
I think.
Gotta pay more attention when I'm me.
Or not me.
Maybe.
OK ban it is.

Eminence makes a bazillion speakers to suit virtually every taste and most are in the $75.00 range. I have an Eminence Red White and Blues that would probably work great with an amp that is a tad too bright.
