I reckon the carpet ones were the best

Shell Pink! Not perfect but better than my last effort at spraying nitro, and a million times nicer than the yuck poly that was on there previously.

nice, not very loud for an amp though I imagine.

Oh guitars are purely decorative for me. I think strings ruin the aesthetics.

Is the amp behind the guitar or within the cavity?

It's actually an acoustic. If you strum hard enough.

(And have strings on it)

Is that a euphemism?

Loosely based on a '39 Gibson eh185. Donor chassis did PA duties in the 40s at a country dance hall. It had been sitting in a farm shed for decades and was full of mouse piss and spiderwebs.

Power transformer is American as are the sockets. They came up good with a clean and test.

I have a 40s em Jensen speaker to go with this. The field coil has been rewound by a radio friend and will be a good match for the amp.

Tube lineup 5z3, 6j7, 6n7, 6l6, 6l6.

Aiming to have this and a few others finished for gearfest.

Underside before and after

Love it!!! Awesome upcycling Paul, can't wait to hear some more of your creations at the gearfest!!

Tone is in the mouse piss?
