I have been doing so much outside engineering and contracted manufacturing lately that my Metropoulos amp production has been very slow. So it was nice to finish this Superbass replica recently. I had a few one-off chassis made, without the gold finish and with all the extra holes my originals have. Just trying to be a little more authentic. Enjoy!

A work of art as always... pics don't do justice. My neighbor has your GPM45 head and I always enjoy looking at the art up close. Post some clips of this Superbass George!

Awesome! Is that a current production carbon film 100k on V2b?

Excellent !
Do you like playing the Strat or Les Paul through that and what speakers do you favor then ?

Hi, been playing this all afternoon. VERY sweet clean platform! Scared to crank it without an attenuator. Using rosewood strat w/ fralin vintage hot and asw kts70. Have never heard a better clean, skeptical if such a thing exists. George is the best!

[JimiJames]

Is that Kevin's Fuzz ? Your set up is very Jimi appealing. NKT275 fuzz and it's BOG ready !

I use PEC's where the large Mil spec pot is historically accurate. Most amps up to mid-late '67 seemed to use them. You see '68 era amps with smaller pots or a mixture. Mine has large 1M's and the rest are small.

Is that V1B cap different? IE .0022? Looks to be physically smaller.

Beautiful work G. Man I wish I could make em that clean.
Glad to hear you're busy workin weather it's for these builds or other folks via contract.
