How many of you have built their own amps from scratch?I have'nt yet,but thats one of the things I'd like to work up to.The amp I have plans for to go with my first CBG build is basiclly I'm gonna rob a old amp of it's guts and place them in a CB or other unusual container.I'm gonna finish my guitar first,then I'll build the amp.
