I play in large rock clubs every weekend. I guess a hiwatter would be cool.

I looked at that kit many times and it would be a great build. Not bad price for the kit either. I also having been poking around the SLO 100 build site as well.

But right now I am in process of a 100w Express build just ordered my parts. Need loud amps.

I only see one Trainwreck styled amp unless I'm missing something. Do you have something against EL84s?
Isn't it pretty obvious that you need a Liverpool?

You could ask Pete Townsend about the HIWATT--if he could hear you. Build a Rocket

you seem to have your large arena rock covered. why not try something you can actually rock at "11"

If you are running out of ideas after a half dozen amps you need to expand your mind. Or if you are content with your tonal choices and you feel that it's covered. Spend the time you would use building another amp just enjoying what you already have!!!

Why not give me everything you have in the first pic, that way you could get a fresh start. I'll even drive to your house and pick it all up, you know, as a favor to you :D

On a serious note, like selloutrr said, may be try building something small, like a 1-5 watter...

Is that amp named ARMOR an 18w Marshall style?

If not I think you should build a lower 15-18watt using a 1-12 speaker in a light cab to take for small venues or horsing around at other people's house/garage/barn.
