I've owned a Two Rock and Bludotone, this has been my go to amp for about 5 years now. Not an original but a great clone.

Didn't hear anything worth a damn.

Yeah, and if you happen to try and listen to the whole series of videos, you just might have the thought of tying Henry Kaiser to your bumper and driving until there is just a loose rope left…or maybe that’s just me. ?

I've got a VVT X40. It's a 20 pound 40 watt HRM based head on a Thiele cab with an Eminence Delta Pro 12A speaker. I'm on the fence about the speaker.

In a Thiele these are awesome!

Eliminates some of the "negatives" peeps have aboot the beam blockers (which I have never had a problem with).

I took delivery of this from MK about two months ago. Absolutely spectacular amp and I'm very happy. #102 circuit and I just put NOS glass in V1, V2, & V3.

Not my go-to map, but when you want that Politician toan it's got it in spades.

Love Henry Kaiser. One of the coolest guitar players out there. The Deep Unreal is fantastic. He did a great album with David Lindley as well. Super underrated. Thanks for sharing.

Pretty lame for a clone to say "By Dumble".

The - op is long gone but running a Line 6 into the front end of that rig… Almost like he was trying to bait this crowd.
I had an L6 and it was handy for quiet stuff but once it got loud went to hell. Not what I would suggest for putting a rig like this with a reasonable expectation of getting anything tasty.
I did like built in wah though. The best I ever heard really.

Boogie-are you around? What is the story with this guitar? Killah!

That's a 56 P90 to Humbucker conversion with original top. Killer flame under the paint.

 

[corpse]

That’s a whew for sure!

I finally built my own #102 based Dumble clone earlier this spring. I bought the chassis in 2007, it was the only one I could find at the time. I spent a lot of time over on the Amp Garage absorbing information until I felt confident I could pull it off. Mark Kane also gave me some pointers years ago. Tried to use NOS CF Piher resistors where I could, as well as MF Dale, Beyschlag, & Roederstien resistors. 6PS Orange Drop capacitors. F&T Electrolytics. CTS pots, including a NOS 5 turn CTS pot for adjusting the bias. All jacks are Switchcraft. Heyboer transformers, even the old Radio Shack transformer to run the relays just like Mr D did. NOS Cinch power tube sockets. Tried to follow the correct lead dress, which is important.
It turned out great. I have about 200 hours on it now, and it keeps sounding better. It was really bright after I built it, but after around 100 hours the amp started to break in and sounded warmer and richer.
