Two channel "100 watt" Danelectro with custom cab and speaker cable that I think runs the speakers in separate sets like a stereo. 2 6L6s per channel probably puts out 40-50 per. Did not plug in.

Nice explanation of power supply filtering including chokes and capacitors. Great visuals and he even uses a scope! (This ia an audio amp site, and the choke may be a little larger than those you are used to).

Getting a great Celestion tone from this speaker. Not too pricey either. These ET65s are the all-rounders, but the Invader 50s are really nice too-kind of a smoother greenback. More growl and top end than this one. Both are definitely the equal of Celestions sound-wise, as are the various Webers, if you know what to order.

Came across this Music Man 65 Watt 112. 2x EL34s with a tube PI! (And of course the solid state preamp section.) I did not have time to fire it up, but I bet it sounded great, especially as a clean platform.

This is such a cool build! I have thought of building an Ampeg SVT in this Mac. (-Jason)

Amp Club members Jonah and June debut their new band today at 2 in Somerville. Playing outside so COVID danger should be minimal. If your a regular or a lurker who wants to meet some amp club folks or just want o see some cool music come on down.

Miss Bones is a Boston-based indie rock band featuring June Isenhart, Jonah Ko, Jasper Park, and Mat Blum. Their music is loud and q***r, but you can dance to it, you know? Look, just give me the aux cord, I'll just put one song on --
