These look pretty sweet. Very impressive! How loud do these things get?

And by "loud", I mean perceived volume. Not dB.

Hi Rick,
for me Rick is an amp guru. Great Rick. I love it.

Do you think someday to share the schematic with us?

Thank a lot Rick

Regards

Did you see the MkII? (the MkI was too difficult to build).

Either way, the work is stunning as usual Rick!  :o

Oh my GOD this looks incredible!  I just joined and have spent the last 3 hours checking out various things but KEEP GETTING HUNG UP ON RICK'S DESIGNS.

The last update on this dude was almost 2 years ago, any word on this ever becoming an item for purchase?  If not, any hope of ever getting our hands on the build detail? :icon_lol:

Seriously, though...as someone just getting into DIY pedal/mods/builds, ALL of the ideas you've put forth are in-crd-di-ble.

Thanks Rick! This amp was my inspiration, now i'm working on something similar:




The amp is running with 220V provided by the max1771 smps, has a 12ax7 as preamp and a 12au7 as cathode follower and SE power amp.
BMP tonestack, gain and master volume.
I'm trying to get a little bit more distortion from the preamp to use it before solid state amps right after the master volume.
Build in effects would be nice, but i think it wouldn't fit in a 1590b, so, no chance to test the little tremolo from the vibratone submini amp...
cheers!
Thomas

The final result, not as good as Rick's but still in a 1590b:

From my series of new videos, old amps, I'm reviving this thread.

Now with the small Marshalls, Fenders, Vox, Palmer, MPF, Wangs available it looks like there a lot of this kind of small amplifiers around, every brand has one!

Well most of them use a real PT, and not a SMPS, but still...

It really sounds nice with a bigger speaker, but the camera mic has it's limitations.

Hope you like it.
