Looks very nice and clean inside. Now we all want to hear it :P. How is it heat wise as well? I noticed that my combo 2 stroke gets very warm. The Chassis is not quite too hot to touch but it gets hot (looked inside and everything seems fine). Seems like that would be an issue with an amp head where there is more metal to be touched and…[Read more]

Finished the two stroke last night at 2:00 AM. :huh:

Now that I have stuff all over my study it would be a good time to start a new project so some effects kits sound good.

Thank you for the pics. Of course now I want to redo the wire to the boost switch to look like yours ;). I think though that since I have everything set for final assembly I will just add a short piece from the ring ground to the terminal with the boost wire seperatly, it might be a tight fit there now with two wires there already but I…[Read more]

Thank you. Now that I am looking at Mr. Hunters drawing a bit closer I think I see what you were indicating about having to know how to interpret it. I am pretty good with mechanical and civil drawings but electrical drawings always make me a bit nervous probably because I don’t work with them too often.

So far this has been a fun…[Read more]

I was wondering if I could just wire the resistors directly to the ground or if I was going to need to use some wire. Looks like they can reach the ground lug directly, that will be easier than splicing in some wire.

One last item, I just noticed something on your wiring diagram that is not in the book.…[Read more]

I am currently putting my kit together that I bought here this summer just when Bluesman’s posts started. So I have one of these PT, and I am to the final stage of building the amp (ie everything is now prep’d and I am about to start the final build).
