“I finished this build must be nigh on 18-24 mths ago and it has been through a few revisons since. Started life as a stock PP-18, migrated into a SL-18 type build with a TMB stack, had a VVR in it for a while reducing the B+ voltages through the amp and toning it down to a more wife friendly level, but needed the VVR for another amp so added the 2,9,18 watt break before make switch on the very left of the front panel.
“The wooden case is New Zealand-native 80 year old heart rimu, all painstakingly dovetail jointed and finished in a wax rub.

“Amp is still going strong and must say this one gets more use than both of my two other larger amps. Great product Barry keep it up.”
