I have 2 updates to my amp collection since the last one

Jackyrhode · 07-14-2009, 10:28 AM

Both from ebay.

Big John · 07-14-2009, 11:08 AM

Very soon, I'm going to get rid of every amp I own and just keep this...

This little green 2x12 bitch does everything I need, and weighs just 29 pounds. I'm done with amps.

Unique SE amp... 12AY7/6V6 job

Torren61 · 07-16-2009, 04:33 PM

Two heads are better than one. 1/2 or 2 watt kit head with 12AX7 preamp tube and 6N1P or ECC99 power tube and 20 watt custom head with a vintage 1973 Raytheon 12AX7 and a vintage 1970 NEC 12AD7 preamp tubes and JJ GZ34 rectifier tube and (2) Vintage 1950 Svetlana 6V6 GT tubes.

1X12 Celestion Alnico Gold custom cabinet in figured AAAAA maple.

Thank you. Now if I could just play as good as my gear looks....

hipofutura · 07-16-2009, 05:05 PM

Bout time you finished up that cab and put some tolex on it!

It really is beautiful! Have you considered building another? You could have a mini stack. Would be very cool!

Torren61 · 07-16-2009, 05:28 PM

Thanks. I have spent something like $900 altogether on that cab. I'm not sure I wanna do that again. I think my next project is this:

It's a 4X10 Yorkville cabinet (from my Canadian neighbors). I think I might be looking for (4) 10 inch speakers. They'd have to be low watt speakers to get the 20 watt head to push them properly. I'm also considering a 8 inch speaker and cab for the 2 watt head.

You guys know that you need to be able to physically push the speaker to get the head to overdrive naturally even if it's a low watt head.

HellfireLP · 07-16-2009, 05:38 PM

$900 for a 1x12...DAMN! but it does look sexy though man!

hipofutura · 07-16-2009, 05:38 PM

Go Traynor!!

I'm guessing that's way to big a cab (internal volume) to properly tune 4x10s. Once you select your speakers you should do the math. I bet an internal baffle would help. Be sure to insulate it. Traynor speaker cabs sucked. I think it's one of the reasons Traynor never was able to break into the big league back in the 60s - 70s. Most of their amps were phenomenal!

If you ever decide to scrap the cab rebuild, let me know and I'll buy the rubber bumpers off you.

That was $300 for the maple, $220 for the Celestion, $150 plus tool trade for the carpentry on the cab ($100 for the chisels, wood hammer and draw saw), $100 for lacquer, dye and sandpaper and $30 for hardware.

If you need the bumpers...I'll give them to you if you mail me the postage after they arrive. PM me.

Torren61 · 07-16-2009, 05:56 PM

The 4X10 thing wasn't a huge vision for me so a small cab for the 2 watt would suffice. I just need to find an 8 inch speaker.
