I passed this circuit around the guitar amp forum ...this was one response... Quote: "We'd still need a preamp tube though. And I'm not sure we'd be happy with the "vintage hum" from a half-wave rectifier. Never mind the safety issues that come with taking power straight off the mains. "
If you want a simple GUITAR amp , there is one being developed at Wattkins.com ...easy to build ,uses old vintage tubes(2) , and costs 100USD... and SAFE too... I built one , and I LIKE it !!! If anyone is interested , I'll post a link ...
