Belated New Amp Day!

BowynMadley

I've Finally gotten round to posting this up. My new custom head and cab from RD Amplification. THE DUALIST!!!!!

Its Basically a Dumble ODS pre amp, Custom tone stack and a tweed output section. Its running 5751s in the Pre amp and Reverb, a 12ax7 in the Phase Inverter and a pair of Golden Lion KT66s (cathode bias) in the power amp. As you will see from the pictures it has the Dumble switches (rock/jazz, Fat and Deep) along with a bright and boost push pull switches. It runs two gain stages that can be split (kind of like a channel switch) 

Both head shell and cab are solid finger jointed pine and covered in mojo black western tolex with a vintage (30 years old) basket weave grill cloth.

This thing absolutely kicks ass!

Looks wise its a bit of an acquired taste but I love it!

Also a quick note to say that Rob (the owner and builder at RD) is a really great guy and the customer service is second to none. He also does services and repairs as well as custom builds so if you're in the Gloucester/South Wales area look him up he's brilliant.

Cheers @Barney Rob is a great guy. Every time I see it or play through it I still get that warm fuzzy feeling and think "is this is actually mine?" people keep asking me what it sounds like but I can only tell them it sounds like itself (which is just awesome in my opinion) can't recommend Rob and his amps enough
