Hey JimiJames. Your build is extremlyclean. Love the industrial looking wiering. I would have liked to have liked to have had those pictures when I built mine.

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
Good job man...btw, i literally had to use two vise-grips to crush that power cord grommet down to size on the cord to get it squeeze in there. Was one of the hardest parts of the build.

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
yep, that powercord was hard work. I'm thinking about converting to a modern powercord. It,s more convenient when carrying it around.

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
I did change it to IEC. Pretty tough job just with some files, but well worth it.
If I would do a lot of this I would find a better way (better tools).

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
I've used it in the studio a couple of times now. Its a truly versatile amp. I used it on everything from heavy crunch sounds to more U2ish strumming.
When I get som finished mixes I'll post them.

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
Thanks!
I dont have any mustards installed yet. I've got a comlpete set for the amp but decided to wait until I've settled for the specs I want.
Since making the soundclips I've changed the NFB from the 8 ohm to the 16 ohm and installed a 0022uf in v2. I've also biased the amp correctly (after fleminras instructions). It was running a bit hot. The mods have made the amp tighter and focused.
I like this amp more and more.

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
I recently bougth a weber mass 150. I must say the attenuator makes a huge difference. The ppimw is ok, but when you get the power tubes kickin in its a diffent world. I could even get thrash metal riffs going. Who needs an OD pedal?
I recenetly bougth the Focusrite liquid Saffire soundcard. I'll try to make some new soundclips soon. Also bougth the Sennheiser e906 wich sounds very nice.

Re: 12.000 Finished!!
I got a PPMV kit but after hearing the amp just through a hotplate, I decided not to install it. All the tubes on 10 is were its at.
