NAD.... New amp decade ? 6g6-b Vibro-kraken !!!!
Well... The Saga that was my amp build finally has an an ending... And what an ending !
I give you the VIBROKRAKEN!
And... It's matching 6g15 hand wired KRAKENVERB!
The amp is a 6g6 bassman clone with added bias wiggle trem, bright switch , power scaling, triode / pentode , adjustable impedance output.
It's a deeply cool amp and shoots surf out of it like a spawning jack trout does milt.
I have to say it sounds the biz with my JL telemaster loaded Avri jazzmaster 'pink'
Sings with an attenuator and a bit of clean boost. The presence knob is super useful.
Happy happy happy

Having heard this in action, it is glorious. And I don't even like surf. OK, I might a bit now.

The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

This amp is so cool it made an Ampeg SVT run away and sulk.
