tony builds a guitar amp
« on: January 27, 2011, 02:32:47 PM »
inspired by this thread: http://www.wiredstate.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=19440&hilit=bamf i decided to make one for my son.....:)

the schematic is based on this circuit: http://ampage.org/schematics/spitfire.gif

having pulled out the 5Z4 rectifier tube from this amp, http://www.wiredstate.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=24477&p=404763#p404763, i gave it a new home:






a peek inside the chassis:




the output tubes used was a pair of 12W6GT vertical amplifier tubes used on tv's, they are simmilar to 6V6 except that their screens are only rated for 120 volts, a zener string of 3 x 47volt 5 watt zeners got that covered.
TV tubes are plentiful and very cheap, 2 output tubes cost U$1 a peice at Rogalski's in Florida......

so how was the amp build? my son was esxstatic/delighted:

Parang ganitong linya? " Ang dami mong kalat, ano ba ang mga iyan at hindi mo iligpit o kaya'y itapon na lang."

maraming available na tubes, yung mga 12ax7 tubes, gamit ng maraming guitar players kaya malabong mawala sa market, sa states ako umoorder, pero localy available naman yan, power tubes naman ang kadalasang bumibigay, yung signal tubes matagal ang aabutin......
