Ontariomaximus is also my ebay username. This is a gutted Epiphone Valve Jr. All new amp installed. All TUBE. Creamy distortion with Marshall bite. Also cleans up very well.

  • very cool video, and sweet amp. Thanks for sharing. So, is this a drop-in amp you built, sell, or bought? I'd love some more info. I'm thinking of gutting one of my VJ's and making it a tiny terror.

  • This is my design and I do sell them. The cost is around $300 with chassis trade-in about $350 without trade-in. I don't have clips of my Tiny Terror version yet though.

see all

  • Because it's a very inexpensive way to get a cabinet, chassis, and transformers. You can't even buy a head or combo cab for the price of a new VJ. So it's a great launch-pad for amp projects. Start pricing a "ground up" amp project and you'll see what I mean. :)

  • why do people bother with "gutting" a valve jr? why not just build an amp from ground up and call it something else? lol

  • This guy builds great amps...I have the Phaez 50. Its a smokin' head! If you have the coin, buy an amp from him, it's well worth the ching...all hand wired, point to point...

  • I see that these use 2x12AX7's and 2xEL84's, but what about the rectifier? Would you be able to build one with a tube rectifier instead of solid-state, and what would the price be?

  • could you post a video on how to put a slave output into a epiphone valve jr head

  • That is aint talkin bout love/Van Halen. Randy built an amp for me too. Like the others that own his amps. They absolutely rock. Flat out rock. BUY IT!!!

  • What brand/model speaker are you using?

  • Thank you so much Randy these little baby high gain amps

    are so good that I,m at a loss for the right thing to say I just

    got my 5 watt version ,its so simple inside you think, hay

    what? then you plug in a guitar and jeez man awsome!!!!!

  • ain't talkin' 'bout love by EVH

  • Nice! Sounds great. What's the tune at 0:47 ?? It's driving me crazy trying to remember. :-)
