So How Do You Like It? Cathode Bias? Neg Feedback Switch?
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

That's one......SWEET.....SETUP! That amp looks SICK on the inside. The photo with your Vibrolux and Tele is giving me capital G A S.

Jeez Scott, that looks like something special. In car terms, that reminds me of a T/A 340 six pack--tons of REALLY great stuff, stuffed into a little package. Solid. :smokin:

75 -- Hey thanks. I'm glad you like the gut shot. With the addition of the cathode bias switch, things start getting crowded in there. Tweed chassis' are a pain because of how small they are. But, nuttin sounds like a tweed. So, there you are. That particular little amp is the 2nd one I've done like that and they are both hot-rod's.

jeremy-- yep, same configuration as yours, but I put the C-F switch in the old ground hole and put the NFB switch down near the speaker outs.

greg calls me up and says, man when I take off the NFB and put it in cathode bias mode, it sounds just like the 5E3 but much bigger, more headroom. he has good ears in that the 5E3 is cathode biased and has no NFB.

I'm starting to get American Amp Gas again. All I've been using for the past few years is EL-34's and EL-84's.

Hehehe

I know who is getting Celtic "016"

And it's a dual voltage "Franklin".

Sweet amp.




Hey, let's start a Celtic Owner's club, it would be similar to a Dumble owner's club - open only to exclusive members who own Celtic products....
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

Looks really, really, nice! Enjoy!:dance:
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

Holy cow that looks nice!!! Gonna have to get my mitts around one of those one day. What does one of those go for Scott_F?
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

Nice to see some Celtic's rolling of the factory floor again. Glad to see that Scott has some free time again, and I know Greg will enjoy the hell out of that amp.

Congrats, and post some about the tone soon!
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

Factory! That's priceless. :) I've got the sweetest 10x12 foot factory you've ever seen. Well, that doesn't count the other side of the garage that is used as my shipping and receiving area, or the back seat of my truck that is used as a delivery/parts vehicle. :)

Thanks for the congrats though!
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

Yo, Papa Smurf, is that serial number on the back of the speaker? If so, what happens to your serial number if the speaker is changed? Jus' wonderin'....

Hey, let's start a Celtic Owner's club, it would be similar to a Dumble owner's club - open only to exclusive members who own Celtic products....

I'm in...

Do I get to be president since mine is a one of a kind?:D
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

There's a secret serial number in another spot. Also, it's a peel off sticker. I'm really not worried about it. I could spot each one a mile away. (at this point).

:)
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

As long as we don't have to start auditioning to get one Mr. Dumble....cuz then I'll NEVER get one! :chairfall :laugh2:
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

I got to hear Greg playing today. He's got enough chops for both of us.
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

I hate this thread! I come here thinking "oh no, a Celtic got one of it's corner's smashed in, and leave here thinking "man, I want another amp!" $%#^^@$%@
 
Re: OMG... FedEx did not just do this to me (New Celtic Arrives)

OK just got back in from playing this thing at church in front of about 400 people and I am worn out. It's been a long day for me. The tone was spot on and I honestly had this stupid grin on my face that only I knew where it was coming from. It reallyturned some heads. I'll review it once I get better aquainted with it. Here are some shot from tonight. Sorry they are a little dark.

The Lux was there just in case.
