So a buddy of mine builds amps in his spare time. Has a few he already buiilt and was jonesin to build another but no funds so he's tells me "hey, want to build an amp?" So he builds it for free, all i pay is parts. SOOOO...
I tried out a few that he already had built and decided on the Firefly 1 watter. I had my doubts about how it would sound being 1 watt but damn.......
So warm, so full. Sounds the best through my LP Standard IMO. I don't know all the nasty details other than its all Baltic Birch with Celestion G12M Greenback speakers. 25 watts/16 ohms.
Here are some pics of the build...

Here is a pic of it pretty much complete. I just need a logo, faceplate and handles on the cab...

Instead of the standard Firefly logo we decided to go a bit different. Like so...

I am very happy with it and although it was a bit higher than i expected to build even with free labor i am totally psyched with this amp. It will be with me forever and i am honored he took the time and effort to build me one.
He is a member here so hopefully he'll chime in with some of the details that i have no friggin clue about
Enjoy the pics !
