This is one of the best do it yourself amp build threads on our forum in a long time!!!!
What a great job Steve is doing on his own. Our very own SH5150 has made it from lowly amp tinkerer to full blown amp builder and designer. His step by step process is well chronicled and pictured on our DIY Amp Builders forum. Very cool pics and excellent computer graphics with lots of great tips on where to find amp face panels, tools and while steve builds his amp, he uses the amp cradle which is super cool looking.
And this dude can play. He knows tone and works it for everything its worth. Check his sound clips out on his Music V2 website ll styles, all genres and many kinds of amp tones.
