I enjoyed this video very much :) commented timelapse is a great way :) I also like your voice and accent :)
Thank you so much!
Nice build and sounds great. Ive done three builds so far and i pretty much used Hoffman turret boards and doing scratch builds and i definitely learned a lot from those builds.I did a Hoffman Plexi build thst tuned really good. I love this hobby! Keep it up man your doing good.
Thanks so much! It's really satisfying to successfully complete an amp build like this. That's awesome you built a Plexi amp too and were able to dial in the tones you were going for. The classics like that are always fun projects to take on. I definitely plan to keep building and learning more about amp design and construction.
Great video brother I really enjoyed! I always wanted to build this amp but every time I look it up to purchase it’s always out out stock… This time it was actually available so I went and purchased because ur video inspired me!!! Please put a up a full rebuild so I have some references for my build!!! Keep up the great posts🤘🏽🎸#oyeahgottaloveit
Thanks so much for the kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that my video inspired you to finally purchase the amp. Congratulations on getting your hands on it! Happy building! Your support means a lot. Keep enjoying the journey
Damn thats some nice crispy gain on tap out of a plexi style amp build. I didn't see if you used any pedals, or is this just all amp? Nice!
Thanks for checking out the video! The guitar was connected straight into the amp with the wireless system. The sound was all plexi. I added a little reverb in post.
@@DIY_AudioGarage WOW...well hell yeah man that thang RIPS lol. So there's no diode clipping mods, symmetrical or asymmetrical, nothing? Cause that sounds at least to me that there is another gain stage or something. And that is not a knock at all bro, I like to be able to dial in preamp gain and also to get the power amp working hard. Because I've played many true Marshall 100w and 50w SLP, JMPs and to get those beasts really crunching it's rip your face off volumes lol. I am really going to look into one of these builds man, I REALLY want a good attenuator/load like a 2 notes or OX box but damn they are pricey. Cheers man.
@@PerfectCircle91 Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked it! There's no extra gain stage in this build. I just added a post phase inverter master volume. This lets you get that crunch without needing to crank the volume to extreme levels. I totally understand wanting to balance preamp gain and power amp saturation, especially with classic Marshalls that need high volumes to really shine. A good attenuator/load box can definitely help manage that, though they can be pricey. Best of luck with your build, and cheers!
Great work, i'm wanting to have a crack at building an amp myself so really enjoy your vids!
Thanks a lot. I really enjoy building the amps and seeing the finished product! Good luck!!!
Both transformer orientation on the chassis, is wrong
Thanks for checking out my video! According to the diagram provided by MOJOTONE, I installed the transformers correctly.
@@DIY_AudioGarage Yeah, their instruction have you install them that way, which is different than the correct way so to be different than the original, so Marshall doesn't come after them. But, it is still incorrect.
@@conjering Thank you for the information! I was not aware of the diffrence.
