Whats on your amp workbench?

Since the other faceplate turned out fine I made another one for my dual rec Tremoverb. I've had a wooden panel on there ever since I got it, this is just the rear side so it's reversible I suppose.

Hello all piping experts....

Playing around with some piping prior to tolexing... This ain't tight yet but I don't think those corner gaps are acceptable. What you all do to get the piping ooking nice in a 90 degree corner?

Cut it? Heat it? Please advise

It depends... a vox handwired cab type actually has a rounded corner for the piping to fit perfectly - yeah a little bit of plywood = moar tone. The usual marshall type and when I can't be too finnicky on a cab, has the square corners and I just make them as close as I can.

I also think that once tolexed those gaps will be way less, maybe just staple some scraps of tolex on to the cab to test? Even with piping it should still be a nice tight fit. Oh and don't forget to notch each corner ( like a v ) from the back on the piping, it makes square corners easier.

The corners of your baffle look rounded? In which case, I'd go vox and make some small rounded pieces of plywood to fill the void.

And I've given all my piping trade secrets away.... feel free to donate to the forum in exchange lol

That looks great, now I want one!
What sort of wood do you use? Anything I can get from bunnings?

It's vitex, but for some reason Tez's vitex always looks a lot prettier than anything I can find.

New faceplate installed on the Tremoverb.







Looks very saurian.

Nice indeed

So aroused.

Yeah that looks super sweet

Wall of noise.
Was running short on floor space so decided to use the wall.
I put castors on the shelves to get to the back of the heads and muck around with cables.
I had one guitar and one amp for years, played way more often and sounded better than I do now with a room full of them. There’s probably a message in there for me somewhere.

Any one recognise this. In again for a blown 2a fuse at the initial power socket. What is the standard value in something like the BE100 Friedman ?

[Optical]

2A for 100W, 1A for 50W

[Timoes]

Cool thanks ! Just wondered if the value had been changef fir some reason. Will replace the blown 2A.
