I just love those point-to-point wired amplifier turret boards, there's something about them that makes you want to look at them, can't quite put my finger on it though.... :hmmm:

I'm deffinitely going to have to get into building amps this way, see PCBs may be neater and more efficient for mass manufacturing, but turret boards is where it's at because they make you think and plan your layouts.... :thumbsup


That Ruth 66 amp looks cool too.... :thumbsup

Dumble Ods Hrm 100W Clone with 4x 6L6 with Heyboer irons, Xicon Mpp's signal caps, Holco H4 0.5% plate resistors, Mundorf Cathode Caps, some other military grade stuff here and there...
The sound of this amp is out of this world!

Cornford MK50H porn. First version, single channel with dual master switch.

Uuuuuugly inside, cost hell of the money and all you get is modified SLO pre, wit JCM800 50W poweramp, weird FX loop location and bigass resistor in place of choke :mrgreen:

I wish I could post the schemo, but I'm not allowed

I may post my layout for this one day, but I must to think about it little longer. I don't want to put Cornford into shame because of paramedic from Poland do nicest layouts than them ;)
