I'd love to be able to keep this, it's a fun little amp, but I need to move some gear. I'll likely be posting a couple guitars and more gear soon, so keep an eye out. This 3 watt head was made by Terry of D-Lab amplifiers, a small custom builder, you may have seen his amps on ebay, or his demos on youtube. Great guy to deal with! This is his Minuteman II model, with some custom labeling I chose, as well as a diode mode which I had him add. Tubes are a 6X4, 6AQ5 and a 12AX7. Amp is all hand wired, well built little unit. Surprisingly loud! Has 4Ohm and 8Ohm outputs on the back. I'm looking for $200 U.S plus shipping, you cover the fees if using paypal. Here be the pics! (If you need more, just ask)

Sweet looking amp!

BTW, FenderFan is a cool guy! Did a trade with him, and it was great.

Dude, I cant believe you want to punt that amp. I have a minuteman III, and just love it. I even ditched my Carvin Belaire 50 watt 2x12 in favor of the d lab. That Carvin was just not happening for me, too loud. I use the minuteman as a head pushing 2x12 Webers. I usually play at church which seats about 350, and it works great. My kid runs the board and we set it up so just a bit bleeds past the P.A. I also think it takes pedals well. Ill use a Rust Driver, Tube Screamer, or an original Rat usually, I like to throw other stuff at it too. It doesnt seem to like Boss pedals though, thats O.K. neither do I. If you havent sold it yet and are hard up for cash post it, I can usually scrounge up enough for a lowball offer.

I remember last year when you first had it built. I forget what it sounds like though in those different modes. Any clips? Since I was curious about it last year I have bought an Epi Valve Jr which I am very happy with once modded, and a newly aquired Blackstar HT-5.
 
Re: FS: custom made 3 watt amp

sorry I don't have any clips, but if you were interested I could hammer out a few sometime!

Hey Man, Did you sell the little jewel? That was a fun one to make. They go pretty well on ebay.

hey Terry, how goes it? I haven't moved the amp. I sure could use the cash, but I'm really not that heartbroken that it hasn't sold yet! :)
