The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes...
No one asked me about warrantee , but if there was a problem, I'm happy to put things right and even service it in the future but this wasn't asked .. in fairness with a little care these amps should last for many many years..
It was mentioned above about the cost, Im pretty sure I could make something cheaper, using much cheaper parts and such, but I wouldn't be happy with something like that for myself, so I doubt Id ever make something cheap and cheerful .. I make one off replicas of some of the best amps ever made, why would I skimp .. lol..
tbh if someone wanted a 50's Fender Tweed Princeton , there aren't many options other than buying an original ... ( oh these were never done as a re-issue either) , the last Original fender Princeton I saw was sold for about £4500 this amp was only half its former self, after being "serviced" ..
Someone mentioned about my soldering, about it being neat and tidy thanks, again I have nothing to hide, am I the best ? ... probably not but unfortunately she isn't with us any more, fenders goddess of soldering Lupe Lopez ... if your lucky enough to have a 50's fender amp built and signed by Lupe , then you've prob got the best of what they had to offer ...
Anyway, these things seem to get a bit silly, and everyone all of a sudden becomes an expert.. there is only one real way to see what my amps are like, come and have ago ...
I dont really understand what your saying ... your crap at amp building. ??
It is all about the price of parts , If I build an amp with a pine cab, tweed lacquer , CTS pots , carbon comp resistors , Sozo caps , leather handle , fender switch gear + fuse holder, matched tubes, Custom Jensen speaker , premium transformers .... I could go on .... then the cost of the parts has to reflect on this surly you can see this..
If I used rubbish parts it would cost less , and would be a cheaper build, but would be rubbish . .
