Here it is the clips from custom tube amp I made with another student for our end-of-career project in the university. We designed the schematic basing on tube amp fenders, and we too designed chassis and cabinet. It's a 15W push-pull class AB with three 12AX7 in the preamp and two EL84 in the output, it has a Celestion G12-65 and a Ruby Tubes reverb. We design it to be similar to Fender amps in order to play from jazz, blues and other soft styles to rock. We name it Bluexurious and it really sounds great. Its similar to a Blues Junior or a Princeton but with some more controls, a warmer tone and with less noise and a additional channel for having a little more boost for solos, which can be controlled by the switch on the front or by footswitch. We really enjoyed doing this project so we wanted to share with people around the web. The quality is not so good, 'cause I've recorded it on the video option of my photo camera, but it gives you an idea of its sound. If you want more there are some photos in this album of photobucket:

Thanks! That gain is which the amp gives with volume pot at 3 o'clock.

That has to be both quite an undertaking and inspiration at the same time. To build you own amp. How cool can that be.

You're right, the first time I plugged in and heard its sound was an indescribable feeling, it's my little boy!
