Dana! Any other thoughts on hum reduction? Thanks!

I saw your 1st blip on tgp. It all sounds great! Could you be convinced to oecord a rhythm thing like all right now or anything ad;dc? Thanks!

Easily.

Can I play it is another question. Those clips are all just spur of the moment where my fingers take me in one shot. I don't play very much with my house remodel and young kids, so don't know a lot of other people's music other than my little licks and noodling from time to time. (Although the main reason for this rig is to have a nice little set-up that sounds and feels great so I can get inspired to play at low volume when I get a few minutes).

I will give "all right now" and AC/DC a try, just need to find some chords and listen to a few youtube clips.

Great tone & playing. Your clips will help show this little gem off. Well done!!!

All the amps I have seen before have the control labelling designed for upright orientation. Can you request labelling for inverted orientation or did you modify the original?

Dayn requested it and I had my panel supplier make one upside down. I don't stock the flipped panels but I can order them and get them made for a slight up charge.

Thanks, though makes me slightly nervous to post as my playing is limited, as is my time to record with my cheap camera. Sounds and feels, and responds amazing in person though, much better than the clips can portray as good as they sound.

Been through:

(2) Star Nova 5 watters
(2) Kendrick Roughneck 5 watters
Kendrick Black Gold 5
Blackheart Killer Ant 1/4 watt with Bitmo mods
Epiphone Valve Jr.
Dr. Z Mini Z head and Mini Z combo
Bumbox 1 watt with reverb
S2amps 6 watt Wreck with power scaling
60's single-ended 3 watt Vox 1x6 combo
Love pedal 2 watt Plexi 1x8 combo

As well as Komet 19, Trainwreck Climax and numerous other Kendricks, Fenders, Marshalls, several boutiques, Wreck clones, etc all with attenuators (tried Kendrick Powerglide, Dr. Z Brake Lite, Weber mass, etc.). Dirt boxes like the Kar Krash with clean amps. Yellowjacket power reducers.

Even tried several PODS, Roland VG-8, VG-88, VG-99, and many other modellers with headphones.

All trying to get a killer tone at reasonable volume at home/in studio. All of the above sounded great in their own way but something bothered ne. Too loud, too expensive, too big, or just not the right tone or feel.

This is the best solution yet and as much as I buy and sell, I don't see selling this rig as there is no where to go to sound and feel better at this volume!

Thanks Dana for a wonderful amp...what else you got up your sleeve?

Sounds as though I could have written that last post! I have 2 Lil'Devils and I run them on top of a Marshall 1936V with each amp going into one of the V30s. I run my guitar through a Voodoo Lab Amp Selector which is a great product for a setup like this. I voiced one of the Lil Devils a little gainier than the other (R12) so I have the best of both world. I really enjoy playing this configuration.

In addition I have a Stephenson Stage Hog in my mix which is a 1W amp with great verstality and is a keeper. I have a 1/4W Little Lanilei from Songworks but I find myself using it less & less.

Summary... Lil'Devils are great and I am sure they will be here to stay for a long time to come. Dana has done a great job.

Most recent idea on my mind is to try to build one without the PCB using a more traditional TW build approach. Just a thought for now.
