- Daniele G., 08/23/2020I built this little bastard, I choose to bypass the noise reduction part because works better in clean tones without and the noise isn't a problem.
I have to try the "marshall" version of the tone stack, but also original is a really good sounding amp. I use it with my 4x12s and works very well also at bedroom volumes.
Really like it! />I have to try the "marshall" version of the tone stack, but also original is a really good sounding amp. I use it with my 4x12s and works very well also at bedroom volumes.

go to post - Marius-Adrian T., 04/23/2020Great head, although only 18 w it can push an 4x12 18 ohm cabinet with ease, very loud and a lot of gain to work with, had fun and took my time with this kit. It seems it can do cleans while rolling the volume pot down. this kit. It seems it can do cleans while rolling the volume pot down.

No regrets. It is so great to have all the components you need without the need to order a million things. All are labeled clearly and this was the easiest build so far I've done. Not due to difficulty but because of the clear instructions and having everything you need in one package. Built it over a weekend.
I did the "modern / tight" build. Info is in the schematics and all parts are provided. The amp itself is not a heavy metal machine as expected. Even with the boost engaged, more like Iron maiden heavy. Amp itself is really quiet even with max gain. It requires a separate boost pedal to get to modern metal. As it is, it is great for rock and older stuff. I am thinking about adding depth and presence pots, but don't really know if those are needed.
I did one mod. I added two germanium diodes in series from master volume pot leg 3 (p5/3) to ground. It clips slightly and gives a slightly more modern tone with small extra gain. Nothing major but I liked it better.
I am Jaakko and this is my favourite amp build on the citadel. />
