It's been well over a year trying to get useable cast block ends and I finally had some machined instead. They turned out fantastic! I'm happy to have built one of these amps again. It was far too long.

Very cool George.

I think you let me play through one of these when I dropped by to pick up my replica cab. This was just over a year ago I think. I'll have to think up an excuse to drop by again soon. 

That looks fantastic! Did you use some shielding tape inside the chassis? I built one of my own, and I did not do anything like that. If I could get my hands on a block end chassis like that I would have to build another, but you just go make your own! :worthy:

I've been having a love affair with the jtm 45/100 for two years now but have yet to build one, still waiting for a block end chassis source. I like the ceramic pre-tube sockets, are they current production? Beautiful work George!
