quick question, I have a bb preamp, and I was thinkin about buyin a small amp to play at house volumes but still soundin real ... so, I ve read a lot about the HB ga15 and everybody say that you change the speaker to sound great, what do u think, is your HB modded in that way or its all original ? thx bro and great sound

Mine hb is stock. And it is not a quiet amp. 15w of all tube power is LOUD! I have a cheaper and quicker solution. Stick a graphic eq in the amp's fx loop and you are done. I use cheap beheringer eq. But you should mod the output tube to increase its livespan. And adding a gain control id also usefull. So much mods, so little time...

Hey man, you got some nice sound comming out of that box, I´m trying to build one myself butIi´m not sure that the layout I have is correct, could you tell me what schematic did you use?

[CarPolanski]

I used kusi's schematics on the freestompboxes,org forum.

Cheers!

How similar it is to the real thing?

Tanks for the data, checked it out and it´s different than the one i got, it´s from a japanesse blog but i don´t understand japanesse at all so I´m in the dark with it. Anyway, I´ll finish the one I started and then I´ll try the other so I can compare.

Cheers man.
