THESE ARE ALL SOLD
S.I.R. #36 Chassis only
How about a chassis only version of the 25W S.I.R.#36 and 25W from a pair of EL34’s? Very cool circuit and is nice and bright. IMO there is a similarity between EVH’s amp and Slash’s. Eddie’s was BRIGHT – listen to the first chords on Runnin’ With The Devil. And listen to GNR Sweet Child O’ Mine – Slash is using his neck pickup with the tone rolled all the way off. The resulting (great) tone is into an amp that is BRIGHT!
You’re looking at US$599.00 – Here is a pic of one. No loop, you supply tubes.
TRIPLE F (15W EL84)
Three types of Fender tones. Tweed, Twin, Bassman. 3 position rotary switch for the 3 channels. Has a loop. Fantastic.
The Shadow
A 5E3 type thing. 15W from a pair of 6V6’s in cathode bias. Cathodyne phase inverter as per a 5E3. One channel covers the 5E3 tones, and the other covers blackface tones. Super versatile.
BLACKWATER 35W
Excellent pedal platform. 2XEL34 for about 35W. DNA from Fender Blackface.
FIRE AND WATER 15W 6V6
A custom build. 2 channels each with their own input. D-style ODS high gain channel and a Bassman/JTM type lower gain channel. Loop included.
TAIPAN 50W 2 Channel
This was a custom build and is 50W from a pair of EL34’s. H channel is based on the Framus Cobra crunch (which is based on the Soldano SLO100) and the L channel is my very well regarded and tried and true Corona channel.
HIEROPHANT
What is the Hierophant? It is a 100W M800+ beast. 4XEL34 in the output stage. And it does sound better than the Friedman BE100 it is sitting atop of.
STARRSHA 38W KT77
This was a custom build. 2 channels – one F Blackface (Corona) and one Bassman/JTM, and it turned out fabulous. On it’s way to Australia.
M800+ 18W EL84
Fabulous! World Class! Chimey clean tone to HEAVY tones. US$745
McClane 4XEL84
This one is the latest McClane circuit and sports 4XEL84 for about 35W. US$799 includes pine head cab and tubes.
Daisycutter 6L6
Consider this one a slightly simplified version of the Atticus. Covers A WHOLE LOT OF GROUND. Loop included, and this is a channel switcher. Somewhat related to the AFD, this one has shared tonestack though, whereas the AFD has separate tonestacks for each channel.
Asheville 60
Another example of the exemplary Asheville circuit and this one with 4X6L6’s that are lightly driven resulting in the tubes lasting many years. The 1-2-3 control makes it very flexible, as does the bright control.
Asheville 18W
The Asheville gets it DNA from the Soldano SLO100 and I have built many! This one has a pair of EL84’s for 18W. Has a loop. Loud enough for gigs, master volume works superbly so it still sounds good at low levels. I think the Asheville circuit is so refined now, it IS better than the SOLDANO – the 1.2.3 control makes it very versatile.
AFD 35
A channel switcher with 2 superb M-style channels. One is crunchy/med gain and the other is med/high gain. A pair of 6L6’s in the output stage for about 35W. Loop, separate tonestacks for each channel. Would love to do another one.
Blackwater 18W
I was running my Savage pedal into this one and was blown away. Excellent clean amp and also a great pedal platform. Almost the same as the Rocinante just slightly different tone control
HRM 35
What does HRM stand for? Hot rodded Marshall? Hot Rubber Monkey? This was a custom of my HRM (Harem) which is based on the D-style Overdrive Special. Custom absolutely loves it and tells me everytime he sees me or talks to me. I am not a fan of the hanging tubes, my preference by far is Marshall style.
Jube 30
Latest single channel Jube 30 (DNA from the Silver Jubilee)
Fullerton type
This one was a pretty wild build. 2 separate amps (but sharing the power transformer). One amp is a Vox AC15 and the other a Fender Deluxe. Oh and did I mention there an effects loop for both!
M800+
Another custom build of the proven M800+ circuit.
M800+
Another custom build of the proven M800+ circuit.
Invasion MKII
Another custom build of the proven M800+ circuit and this one was 50W from a pair of EL34’s.
M800+ (Vidaluxe)
Was a custom build of the proven M800+ circuit and this one was 50W from a pair of EL34’s.
Sunset 22
A unique custom build, and DNA is from the Bogner Ecstasy (XTC). Red and Blue channels. I have to get around to building another one of these as is exceeded my expectations. About 22W from a pair of 6V6’s
Duophonic KT66
Custom build using a single KT66 in the output stage for about 10W output. One channel is Fender 5F2-A and the other a JTM (Bassman). Master volume, master bright.
Duophonic 6V6
Another proven design. 20W from a pair of 6V6’s. One input but there is the ability to blend the channels together. I love this aesthetic – white cab, black corners, black front, white faceplate. Both channels are world class and complement each other nicely.
Doxy
A custom build with a quad of EL34’s in the output stage for about 100W. This is a version of the M-Class M800+. World class. You can see it sitting on a Friedman BE100, and I prefer the Doxy. Just more refined sounding.
Healer
A custom build with a pair of EL34’s in the output stage for about 35W. Loop, tube recto, separate inputs, H channel is Asheville and L channel is a McClane. This green tolex is quite nice!
Atticus EL84 18W
The Atticus has been built with many different output stages and this one uses a pair of EL84’s for about 18W. But this is not your everyday EL84 amp. This amp uses fixed bias (not cathode bias) and feedback is crucial to elevate the performance to a truly exceptional level.
Atticus 60W 4X6L6
The Atticus has been built with many different output stages and this one uses a quad of 6L6’s run very conservatively.
All Things Fender Plus Some Marshall
This is a unique amp with 2 channels that you can blend at the same time. Blackface+Bassman.
40W Barracuda
Latest as of July 12, 2025. H channel is my latest Crocodile and it is fantastic. The REFERENCE high gain channel is based on what I have learned over many many years. L channel Fender twin but tweaked. Both channels 2 DIE 4. The channels complement each other nicely. Channel switcher, loop, ready to go. EL34’s. US$949. Email me if you are Canadian and want to pay in C$.
40W M800+
Just completed. SPECIAL PRICE US$785. This thing is WORLD CLASS. Where is it on the gain spectrum? Crunch to high gain in the Soldano SLO100 territory. 70’s classic Marshall sounds with the gain rolled back. Has an effects loop. 40W from a pair of EL34’s. June 20/25
Corona 40W
This was a recent custom build and is an OUTSTANDING Fender-style clean amp. Blackface/Twin tones but REFINED! It has a master volume and very useful bright control. Takes pedals superbly. I would gladly build another. 40W from a pair of 6L6’s. No loop. US$699. Contact me for more info.
