Jm Liverpool rocket?

[cap217]

Interesting amp on eBay. A Liverpool rocket. Rocket controls, rectifier, 2 different pairs of el84s (not sure what this is).

I always wanted a lp rocket in my head. Never knew that existed.

Ken originally called the Rocket "Liverpool Rocket". It's not a different amp, it's a Rocket.

I use two different brands of power tubes in my version of the Rocket. Something Ken and I experimented around with. In my amp (and Ken's) the outside tubes form a pair and the inside tubes form the other pair of the P-P. To mix tube flavors it should have one of each per side, i.e. X/Y/Y/X, not XX/YY as shown in this amp.

I saw this amp and was momentarily excited until?

I really have stress with JM using the Trainwreck name but never hearing or playing through one of JM build next to Genuine "Wreck" in person, it would be nice to get some feedback from those folks who has?

Does JM have the legal right to use TW name on his builds? I understand he was friends with Ken but trademark ownership is a different thing all together.

Now that's a strain relief!

It looks like a nice build, but $9k? I think not.

He's got the credentials. If he can get the money, God bless him. Not my place to say.
