Montecristo CBA

This is the first amp I've made.
I used a Montecristo box that my CBG Masters CD's came in, and a Kemo MO32 12 watt amp module from Maplins, so it wasn't too hard, but still complicated enough for me, having never done anything like this before!!
Couldn't have done it without Smojo's "How to build a Cigar Box Amplifier" leaflet!!!

Maplins are shutting down by the way.

I've used the same amp module and am trying it with different speakers and boxes. No actual Cigar boxes yet but going to try it with this one next https://flic.kr/p/24cioiQ
