Will she need vacuum tubes to purr? My neighbor used to work on amplifiers and I guess old school vacuum tube bulbs is a thing to make them purrr better or something.
I know a while ago he was looking to sell off his collection. But if you need one I can ask him.
Peace

Thanks!
Most of my collection of vacuum tube is new old stock, I have some nice RCA, GE, and Sylvania tubes, along with the more generic brands. the old tubes are, for the most part, better sounding than the new made ones, but there are some new tubes on the market that are made very well and have that "sound" also. :-)
Of course, I cant help but wonder what tube treasures your neighbor has in his stash... :-)

Ahhh, good stuff.
No clue. I thought it was cool. But had no experience with vacuum tubes... So he could have had the crown jewels and I wouldn't have known!!

awesome build, any plans for a bypass circuit for it?

Thank you!
What kind of a bypass circuit are you thinking of? If it's a negative feedback bypass circuit, yes, that's what the switched pot on the back of the chassis is for. I have a standard negative feedback circuit with a switched 50K pot in the circuit so that I can shut off the bypass, or have it on with a variable amount of feedback to the preamp. I don't know how well it will work on an amp this small, but I guess I'll find out.

Sorry, I meant a standby switch so you don't have to turn off the power to the tubes when you aren't playing for a minute or changing things like effects pedals. Not sure why I said bypass. I'm curious on how that negative feedback circuit works out. Thanks for the response

Yeah, I understand. I didn't put a standby switch on this amp. I could have, but it seems that you very seldom see a standby switch on an amp this small. I couldn't tell you why. I usually put a standby switch on any push pull amp that I build.
