My Overtone is built! It seems that it took forever, but, its operational and sounds awsome! This was my first ever amp build and would have been done way sooner, but, we had a family emergency that took priority. Now for the head and speaker cabs. Here are some pics.

Make a joyful noise...that is smooth, tight and punchy! I believe that God likes tube tone.

And then... The cab is solid red oak with maple veneered ply front and back panels. Sorry for the poor pic quality, I took these with my cell phone.

I found this to be a fun challenge. I am fortunate to have a very patient wife who loves to here me play. So, she wanted me to finish it so she could here me play it. I'm hoping to post a sound bite, or, two soon. I have tinkered with an old 4 watt Kay 703c that I bought at a thrift store and brought back to life. It sounds really good...quite by accident. I recapped and retubed it from info I got on the internet. I had no idea what I was doing! Now I'm hooked! REAL BAD Too! I want to build more!!!!!!  Grin
