JTM 45 kit instructions

I thought a catagory for these new kits would make it easier to find info on them.

And it gives me a place to upload the instruction pages.

Here's the board wiring diagram I've made. Please let me know if it seems intuitive.

Looks good, so you must be ready to ship me that beast right.......hurry, I actually resorted to reading a novel this week instead of working on amps, oh the horror........

make sure you identify the pins (number...) from the sockets!!

How about this board layout diagram?

BTW this is a smaller version of the actual diagram.

I guess it's not very intuitive at all then. Do you see a link to download the image?

It's working now. I think I had html turned off.

George,
I noticed you have the ground symbol for each one of the ground points in the first layout, but personally, I think it would be a great help to indicate exactly where each ground point gets grounded to. (For the least possible noise/buzzing) Of course you might already have it covered in your step-by-steps, but that was the first thing that came to my mind. I know it's a given to all the guys who build amps a lot, but for guys like me who have only built a couple, (or none for that matter) concisely indicating the ground points might be appreciated by all.

The grounds are detailed in the instructions.

And the kits ARE shipping. I am just refining them a bit.

I like it George. They grey background lets you draw white wires, and I like the colors of the componets matching what they really look like.
As far as the grounding situation. I remember that I had to look at my 73 to double check the grounding on the under board filter, and the grounded
filter near the board. Sometimes I wonder if I over grounded, but the amp soudns killer, and that was a 100 watt project anyways.

All in all, your instructions are incredible. I could teach a kid how to build an amp with them. My 11 year old son for example already has GAS and wants to build. He's learning. See what you started? Now we have generations of amp builders here.
