Here's v2 of the Sixty-One SRT amp badge designed & 3D printed by bobiron.
I'm very pleased with this and it's a keeper!
Thanks again Bob.

Paint the base line black. It'll really make it pop.
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.

Re: MikeC Sixty-One SRT
Righto, an update of sorts. Have sold 3 more SRTs recently including my first to the USA (Ebay ad). Wanted this one to go like clockwork for all the reasons. I got me a DHL credit account but the freight cost is still hellish. So, built a 120VAC version, tested it for hours and freighted it to Alaska. Freight was worse than I calculated so I will be lucky to break even. The amp arrived with the new owner today but has been damaged in transit, fuck. I can't believe it, chassis ends are bent, tube shields are squashed and front panel is chipped. It must have been a seriously heavy crush injury and I'm extra glad I got it insured. It was a completed chassis but sans tubes, reverb tank & footswitch so no glass fragments at least. So the new owner plugged in a bunch of tubes and fired it up & it still runs which is good news. It's a tough road to being a tube amp mogul, more lessons learned...

Re: MikeC Sixty-One SRT
Yep, just what I didn't want. I might be able to spin it though...
