While this might be considered spam, I wanted to let you guys know that I've got some pricing on the website and I'm working damn hard on a dumbly-channel switching blackface type amp. I know some of you need to kick in the gain, and I'm working on it. (got lots of emails on this)

Also, I've listed introductory pricing on two models. Check the site.

sorry if I'm spamming. :dance:
 
Re: Celtic amp news

Scott, if here is anyway you can get a switchable gain stage on that dumble side, let me know.
 
Re: Celtic amp news

an 80 watt Brenna is a piece of cake.

especially if you are just going for a Twin Reverb type amp. standard trem and verb. 2x12? easy.

Cool. :)

Definately straight up Blackface 2x12 on one channel, but I do have a twist:

How hard would it be to configure one of the channels to break up earlier than the other (and to sound kind of Marshally to boot)?

BTW, I don't mind EL-34's in the power section. :wall: :naughty:

Mainly I would use it in a channel switching scheme.

Am I asking for too much? :burnout:

Not much to making a Twin clone and taking the normal channel in a more Marshall direction (increase the mids and gain), but you'd have to use an A/B switch to go between the two of them. But, I'd use 6L6's of some sort since I'm kinda partial to them.

Taking into account my unblemished record of staunch heterosexuality, I must say Scott, you just gave me a joy-gasm. :)

The EL's aren't a big issue for me, neither is the use of an A/B switch. If you can get very, very (I'm talking extremely ;) ) close to a Plexi sound from the normal channel, then I'm sold. :burnout:
 
Re: Celtic amp news

Scott, you're a mainstay here, if not the primary reason this place stays up and running smoothly. If you didn't tell us about your new business, how would any of us be able to support it?

IMHO, spam is when you offer something for nothing that costs us everything (Free IPOD anyone?). Your endeavor is a slight step above Stratdeluxer's offers of upgrading stomp boxes. Another useful service to those on the perpetual tonequest.

When can you give us some pictures and some sound clips, Scott?

as soon as all my parts arrive. the beauty of when I used to do kits is that all parts arrived at the same time. now, they trickle in.

in the event that someone buys blind with no pics or soundclips, I'm offering a couple of days approval period. but gotta get those parts in first. then I have to tweak until they sound right to me. then I build. I probablyh should have just done all the building and tweaking first before I put the website stuff up. :) sorry, excitement got the best of me.
