Hi i'm new to the forum and to the world of Ceriatone Amps.

I am considering the TW expression kit and obviously to save on shipping costs , was going to source my own power and output transformers.

My question is ,  i have researched that Mercury magnetics and Toneslut are two possible choices.

Firstly the MM set is over Double the price of the Tonelsut.
Has anyone had experiences with either , is the price justifed for the MM over the toneslut and is there any other choices out there.

I'm in Australia and wanting to order very soon but want to sort this out prior to ordering.

I've also looked into the mod's for this model , and wondering what people would recommend.

I'm looking obviously to maintain tone, but can't discount the benefits of a master volume or half power switch, also maybe an FX loop , any thoughts suggestions ??

This is going to be 95% home studio amp.

I'm also considering a Plexi 50 lead for a gigging amp , so should i keep the TW express ? unspoilt so to speak

Appreciate any guidance you guys may be able to offer.

Cheers

thanks for the reply ,
your work looks great , congratulations on a fine job.
i also was going to put the chassis into a marshall style cabinet. i assume there's plenty of room above the transformers then , that was a concern of mine as the proper cabinets looks taller , maybe just becasue they are narrower.
I think i will go for the tonesluts for my first amp.
What do 2 PPIMV do , i thought it was basically a master volume.  Do you have one for the preamp section and another for the power
By clipper stage bypass do you mean - preamp stage    this means you can just run the head as a power amp ??
again thanks for your help.
