First build is alive.

[declan]

Here are some pics of my first amp build, I couldnt believe it when i fired her up on the bulb limiter and things started checking out. Unfortunately I have a cheap DMM which has been giving strange readings at the top end of its scale so i did not dare go any further than check voltages and a few second strum. Some of the B+ voltages are reading high so I intend to sit down with it next week with a decent meter before going any further.

I havent posted many questions here as most of the answers I needed so far were but a search away but I fear that it is now getting to the limits of my competence, so I will ask forgivness now for any stupid questions you guys have to suffer over the next few weeks.

If my bias voltage range is too low is it the 220k resistor across the PT secondaries that needs lowered?????

The cab is being left with a friend next week who does wood burning art... I have no idea yet what i am going to ask him to do..
