While waiting for V.10 this prolonged winter, I decided to build a little tube amp. It's pretty cool in its simplicity. I got the idea from Dave Hunter's book "The Guitar Amp Handbook". It's very similar to a Fender Champ, with more flexibility. It can use a 6V6, a 6L6 or a EL34. The rectifier tube is a 5Y3 and preamp tube is a 12AX7.
I used two Jensen speakers, a 10" and 8". The speakers can be used together or singly to mimic the exact tone of the Champ (8") or Princeton (10"), or a Vox with both.
My cabinet is unique in that it is built out of reclaimed old growth virgin white pine, cut in the 1870's and aged for almost 150 years.
Not as simple as changing a preset and cab on the Axe ll, but a lot of fun!
