The design is like a AB763 Fender Deluxe with a cathode bias and a ’59 super amp presence circuit. It has Sprague Orange drops, carbon comp resistors in the signal path, and top end components throughout carefully constructed on sturdy green double G10 board. The power transformer is a toroidal type giving higher efficiency, less noise and heat and more headroom than conventional transformers. The output transformer is rated at 20 watts made to AB763 specs but with a wider frequency response. The results are superb. Beautiful shimmering clean and/or thick tones at lower volumes and a sweet gradual breakup at higher volumes with great detail and response. Check out the pic of the inside. Very clean construction with teflon coated 22 gauge stranded silver plated copper wire and easy to mod. No rebiasing is required when changing power tubes as this amp is self biasing. It is quiet at idle and has a very nice warm and responsive sound, yet really gets it on when you turn up the volume. Other features include line out with level control, effects send and return, a standby switch, volume /treble /bass/mid/presence controls, 4, 8, 16 ohm speaker outputs, 12 inch Pyle speaker, 8 ft. 16 gauge power cord.  The preamp tube is located next to the input jacks eliminating wire between the two. The effects send and return jacks are positioned between the volume and treble controls which also eliminates over one foot of wire in the preamp circuit. Rigid G10 board is used for component assembly with a second piece sandwiched under it for maximum circuit insulation. Mods to the circuitry are a snap with this design and layout. The cabinet is from a Yamaha 45 watt amp. They don’t make great sounding amps but they really made a great cabinet this time. The chassis fits perfectly and is very easy to remove and replace and the mounting screws are copper alloy. It is a light yet very strong cabinet with a super hard Tolex black covering. The back panels have regular black Tolex applied and the grill cloth is new. The inside of the cabinet is 17 inches across making it just wide enough for a reverb tank. The amp weighs 30lbs with dimensions of 19”W X 17-1/2”H X 8”D     This point to point hand wired amp is being offered at a ridiculously low price! I am in the process of building a line of these as heads and I  have to move this amp to make room and funds for more. You cannot find a better deal anywhere! Comes with a six month parts and labor warranty on all parts except the speaker and a thirty day warranty on the tubes. I am so sure you will love this amp that for any reason, you may send it back in original condition within 14 days for a full refund including one way shipping!
