“My Snakesking Weighs A Ton”

The YBA1A is the one getting 90W from a pair of 6CA7 output tubes, with +500V on the plates, right? Hence the case fan?

Can new production EL34/6CA7 deal with the voltages? I need another amp about as much as I need a basement that floods every time it rains, so I'm going to talk myself out of this "because you can't get good tubes anymore" whether or not that's true. Maybe I'll add in a little "you should have bought one when they were $100" just to make it stick.

Yeah agree. I feel like my day has peaked at 8:20 am

I guess I'm not surprised in this day and age that I was able to find an AI text-to-pokemon image generator and a separate pokemon card generator. Took all of five minutes to make.

I do not need this at all right now, but it's tempting just because of proximity.

ah jeez that's exactly what I was considering for my next build. Toss up between that and a TL-505.

Years ago I was in a similar situation where I ended up w/ 2 homemade TL-606 that came up at a great price on CL. They are not as nice as I'd probably have made for myself cosmetically but completely solid & functional so I never built any coffee-table-grade/emperor-style.

the two concerns/questions I'm using to try to TMOOI is 1.) those cover holders are not even close to a symmetrical x-pattern and that would bug the shit out of me every time I saw it and 2.) I cannot see if they are two individual chambers or one single chamber...and tbh I'm not sure which way I would build it if I were doing this from scratch....prrrrrrrrrobably one large chamber as that's how the TL-606Q was built...

Anyway, this would be same scenario for me. A little Bondo and some Duratex would spruce that thing up nicely. FECK

Seller dropped the price so I guess I'm getting it. *shrug*. I wanted to have a cabinet in the house that doesn't move and then one in the garage for shows anyway so I don't have to deal with stairs. This is stupid though as I'm not playing shows hardly at all.

Seller also listed a Peavey TKO for $100 if anyone is looking for a very decent practice amp. It'd be absolutely capable for shows though too honestly, just kinda heavy.

Caveman Vintage Music in Los Angeles just posted a plexiglas 1x15 cabinet that was custom made for the Black Eyed Peas.
