This one took a long time. Given that John Mark has taken over building wrecks, this is wreck 2.0 I guess. I won’t get caught up in any of that old argument. I have plugged into a lot of amps. This one by far is the punchiest EL84 I’ve tried. Has a 3D quality to it. Swirling tones...

1971 Red Face EP-3. Only 400 made. Needs a wee bit of love. It's a hot mess.

Grabbed Brian's new version of the TBIAC. Has an independent boost function that is a great addition. Chimey cleans and some food AC30 distortion tones. The guy continues to hot home runs.

Just ordered one of the new Top Boost in a Can units. Clips sound great. Price of the new one is actually lower than most are selling the last model on Reverb. I also have a 7 knob Howie (thanks for the recommendation Rodney Gene) and a Wreck'T (trainwreck express) pedal. That Wreck'T is...

It's a green you love or hate. Best US made sub $1000 I've bought. Had one since Xmas. Play it all the time.

I guess this is a heavily weighted budget dependent question but: Are you a one amp guy or multi-amp guy? Do pedals affect this for you at all?

Evan has a relationship with D'A and had suggested I try these strings. So I grabbed a few packs and loaded up a few guitars. First one I ended up snapping a skinny E as I was installing it. Gotta say, I was pissed and not off to a good start. I've never snapped a string ever in 40...

This is a good price and recently services. 71-72 are the magic years for EP3. The three color logo is what you look for. $600 shipped. I am not affiliated...

Back to the first amp I ever built. Surf green and cane. Weber alnico, Merc Mag, Mojo pine cab, SoZo and TAD caps, carbon comp res, etc. Dime this bad boy and work the guitar vol Knob to clean it up. Just excels at it.

Chasing down some extraneous noise in the EP2. Got with my friend Echoplex repair guru Pete out in LA and had some fun chasing it down. What a rats nest cluster inside. Found a cold solder joint on one cap and then replaced an old black beauty cap on the oscillator circuit that was failing...

SOLD $675 Shipped and Paypaled. OBO 1x12 combo. In good shape. Will post photos and a price later tonight. Has pentode triode switch on the power tubes for reduced wattage. Reverb model. Logo on the front is intact. (Replaced it myself back when you could still find them. )

Lovepedal/Hermida Chrome Hall Mod verb. SOLD Mr Black Downward Spiral echo. SOLD Celtic Amps 6G15 Reverb tank serial no. 0001. SOLD Heritage H-530 Hollowbody. Pics and pricing here. https://reverb.com/shop/celtic-amplifiers

If you come across one, you should consider picking it up. They are no longer being made. Buy it. One of the best pitch shifting vibrato, and also has a more switchable standard vibe and a Sampson matchless style overdrive built into it. Stereo out is absolutely amazing. And it's built like a...

Komet Songwriter 30 headed my way. It's a one off. Has switchable Gz34 or Solid State rectifier. I'm stoked. Be here soon.

This is way freaking cool. The only difference in the coming soon flyer and what will ship in March is they are gonna use 10's instead of 8's on the wet http://www.kometamps.com/ambikab.html
