The standard version is equipped with 2x ECC83 preamp tubes, 1x Input High / Low switchable, Volume, Gain, Gain Boost, Treble, Middle and Bass controls and a 4/8/16 Ohm Speaker Out as well as a Line Out! The possibility of a powerreducion is by switch on the back of the amp also standard.For the housing I take am "Middle Thick Fiber Plate", after waxing it looks like leather. Look for further pics of the Amp at my side.
I see you got a five string banjo. My CBG got a Banjo neck too!
Hi Brian,
Nice builds you have done. I've been building cigar box guitars for a few years, along with some six string electrics, lap steels, a few bass guitars, strum sticks, and now I am sort of obsessed with building tenor guitars with solid bodies. There are a couple other cbg builders here in NS that I know of. One is Darren Brown, in Canning. He was on the Dragon's Den show a couple years ago. And Mike Breen, in Halifax.
Cheers, great to connect with you.
Friend Req gleefully accepted!

Brian, how did you hollow out the antler? I have a few chunks of antler dog ches that would be awesome slides if I could figure out a sensible way of boring them out....
