Re: Building a tube amp. Questions----->
Well, I'm not trying to take anything away from your accomplishment - as a matter of fact, it just points out what a difficult thing you did and how rare IMHO it is for someone to do that much by themselves.
Necessity is the mother of invention, but you went the extra mile. Very cool, and I'm glad your project went well. We want sound clips! [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Coulden't get VATECS anywere.
SO I ALSO MADE THEM MYSELF. After a day of tests I came out with an optoacoupler better than original VATEC (sealed in epoxi putty [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] ). Just an example to show how yor limited resourses push you to achieve your goals OF COURSE WITH LOTS OF EXTRA EFFORT! Would be easier to go to RADI-o-SHAC store and buy them..

You need dedication, effort and no givin up (no matter the problems that ALLWAYS come out)attitude to reach your goals.
BTW. PCB (new process I used. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] ), metal chasis, wooden head housing, tolexing, even speaker cab, made it all myself.
Once again, didn't have the money, and if I would had it, here wouldn´t be available to get. So I HAD TO do it myself.
The biggest pain in the ass is the fact tha the best tubes i could get were Sovteks [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img] . Can't wait till I get enough cash to import JJ's!
