Cool Brandon! Dig the Eastwood reference. Back to biz!

Just so some folks are clear on what I said. I am a pirate and a thief and I think so is everyone on here. You may not be breaking any laws but to the people who really did the serious work of designing these things we are worms. Read the back of one of Howard's bassman mods and you can see exactly...

Maybe I was a bit harsh in suggesting that we be more exclusive, but I'd like to keep this site as "A TUBE AMP BUILDERS COMMUNITY" as the name suggests, which would also indicate that the "Dumble Discussion" is a place to discuss the construction of Dumbles, and techniques, parts choices, etc. If y...

In fairness there are a lot of really nice folks on TGP. It's just some of the most active ones that aren't. Seems like it can taint ...
