My Father had built a Knight Tube Amp HiFi kit prior to me being born. That was my introduction to the rich sounds that can eminate from a vacuum tubes. Growing up my friend Larry and I were addicted to our Radio-Shack 100-in-1 electronics kits. From there I progressed to build many electronic kits and guitar effects pedals. In College I studied electronics, computers, robotics and became an electronics technician for Nortel (13 years). I've always wanted to build a tube amp, and after getting in touch with my childhood friend Larry, that seed was replanted.
I haven't taken a day off work in a while, so I spent it woodworking :) The Lower Cabinet (#2) is progressing. I was able to get it built-up yesterday. I still need to sand it and fill in the nail holes. Then it will be ready for Tolex.
