Orange OR18 clone "The REAL Tiny Terror" 1x12 combo EL84 18 watt demo

@lennythefence sweet! by retrofit do you mean you just replaced the tubes or changed the circuit to accommodate them?

[lennythefence]

@Ombrenuit I rebuilt/re-arranged the components on the entire board, and used the existing tube complement in the amp. I had an extra 12AX7 left over, so I decided on a second channel with a different voicing.

Strange indeed - and eerily beautiful like your others. You are doing something very right. I wish I had the $ to spring for this right now!

@DrOnymous Thanks! I enjoy doing these handcrafted folk-art/re-purposed style stuff as a contrast to my tidy-er "clone" and "production" amps.

Wow, sounds badass! Like it better than my tiny terror. Would totally snatch it up if I wasn't out of the job :(

@Ombrenuit thanks, I dig this thing. I just did a rebuild on an old no-name amp from the 60's, retrofitting the actual tiny terror circuit, but with 7868 novar output tubes. Interesting sound without the EL84 breakup and chime, more like early tweed Fender style breakup. Will post vid of that one next.
