big bob Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Well when I got home from work yesterday there was a package waiting for me. Our own KBP810 was kind enough to send me some parts for my champ build, some super cool capacitors and six or so tubes of various makes and models.. Just a few parts left to assemble and I'll be on my way. Thanks Brian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HRB853370 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 So you are really an amp builder now too? What don't you do? Impressive Big Bob! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful about that one. Can you imagine a Big Bob amp with a Bigsby arm on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolero Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 cool beans!! I second the vote to install a bigsby on the amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonefish Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I think the bigsby should be installed on a pedal for the amp. Maybe a clean/hot button and a bigsby arm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I second the vote to install a bigsby on the amp Does this mean he can lose the 12AX7 that would have powered the tremolo circuit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolero Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 haha that would be hilarious, if you could rig a bigsby up on the front of the amp...push it with your foot & it causes a vibrato it could be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Well crap can I build one? I would love to have a little Champ head to run through a 12" cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big bob Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 Well the waiting continues, still waiting on the chassis and one of the resistors? I sent an email out, hope for a response today. Come on triode... I'm impatient! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
