New amp—Brown Junior

Post by brewdude »

Inspired by the Fender 6G3 Deluxe, this single channel, no tremolo amp is powered by a pair of 6K6GT’s.

I used DIYLC to design the board and had Doug cut and drill it. It has extra space to allow for larger components and some extra eyelets for possible future mods.


I borrowed some ideas from many of you, and relied on your knowledge and expertise to guide me—whether it be directly or indirectly.


Thanks

I will see what I can do about sound... might have to wait until wife and kids are out of town—spring break?

I just put it in a vertical 2x8” combo cab with “3D style” side vents, that previously held a different amp.

I like it. It responds well to my guitar’s tone and volume controls. It’s quite loose feeling, but in a good way.

I haven’t tried it with pedals yet.

There's something very lovable about a 2 knob amp. Nice job!
