Hello everyone, big life update! As some of you may know, I recently relocated from Rochester to Portland Oregon. I'm still going to be fixing guitars and amps, just in a new venue 😊 I have some more things lined up that I am extremely excited about and will update y'all when I can. Peace!

Amp build is finally done. it's the first one that I've done everything 100% by hand from scratch (Except the effects loop). Built the turret boards, drilled out the chassis, did everything the hard way. This was definitely a massive learning experience, and I'm so incredibly stoked about the final product. Already planning the next build!

Inside a Bugera 333 amp, genuinely pleasantly surprised by what I saw. I think the only things I'd change are the super cheap tubes (which failed in this particular amp), and cheap filter caps. But overall, very solid build. I've seen a lot worse on amps that cost a lot more. I definitely wouldn't hesitate to scoop one up if I wanted a budget tube head.

Today on the bench, modding a 5150 signature combo!

1. This amp is an absolute nightmare to work on, would not recommend. The head is fine, the combo uses the Peavey folded PCB which are a notorious PITA.

2. Mods: swapped out 100ohm screen grid resistors for 500ohm. Added adjustable bias control. Swapped out filter caps with F&Ts. Swapped out power tubes for a matched pair of JJs. The stock tubes were fine, just not matched. Gotta get that noise floor down any way you can. Replaced v1 with a 12au7.
