thanks kindly


Celestion Blue/ G12H30 ... GREAT combo, especially for this amp.
 
Re: here's a pic of my custom maple amp cab

Absolutely beautiful. :bigok: The only problem is... now you need a matching cab. :D

SICK!!!!!!
Do you have a link to the old post? I'm just wondering all the details which you prob already discussed in that earlier thread. Like, did you make it? how did you make it? how much did it cost.


Very nice, best i've ever seen.

thanks, Push ... how's Isla Vista?

anyway ... I looked but didn't find the old post

It's a 30 watt, 4-El 84 amp, made by Paul Ruby of Ruby amps, based roughly on a Trainwreck Rocket, with a half power switch.
I'll PM you the cost -- it was very reasonable for a custom amp.

the cab was made by my friend Glen, who is a great wood worker. we dyed the cab a light amber, and he shot nitro clear coats over that.

the Avatar cab was custom ordered to match the amp, with a Celestion Blue/ G12H 30 combo.

One of the most beautiful amps I've ever seen, if not the best. That's one I'd love to have in my stable.

I'd love to plug one of your teles or my ES-335 into it. It reminds me of one of those Allesandro amps.

Thanks for all the info, and congrads on your amazing amp! Moved out of Isla Vista Last year, moved my sister into IV few weeks ago. HOw'd you know i'm from there?

Anyways, i'm so sorry but eventually I will have to copy you and make an amp like this. It's just too beautiful!

I'm there. The Van Nuys Airtel Hotel is literally 200 yards from where I work.

In reality, there's no amp fanatic who's closer in proximity to the Amp Show than me. I have zero excuses for NOT showing up to that! haha See you there.
 
Re: here's a pic of my custom maple amp cab

Wow . . . that looks more like a fine piece of furniture than an amp. That would be so cool sitting in a den or a home bar. Or anywhere, for that matter. Very nice, Curly.
