Nobody needs this

I think Billy should team up with Andy (Y-DNA) and create the Triple Soldered Cupholder Supreme. Voltage quadrupler, heatshrink on the caps, hotsnot and liquid electrical tape - the full 9 yards.

Maybe Steve Carr can reach out to him and together build the Carr Crash; an amp for real men*.

* Real men who don't mind having to grab the fire extinguisher and put the amp out after it self-destructs. Real men who will then remove the charred, gooey remains of the hotglue and rebuild the amp. Real men who don't want an amp to work, but rather need an endless supply of sparks, smoke poisoning and gremlins to keep at bay.

...just a sec, this reminds me of something else I saw the other day! Oh yes, Carr amps...
Now that there is one o' them PTP amps [Point To Point for you non abbreviation types] the interboobs crow about the tonal superiority of with little or no understanding... Not sure you can make one pretty.

Yup, that's indeed true point to point. Not really the best idea for something like a guitar amp, really. Is a central board really going to introduce more parasitics than this arrangement? It would certainly be a lot more easy and pleasant to service and troubleshoot. Presuming that's actually silicone and not regular hotglue you can see it as a necessary evil, one that could be avoided with a board. I'm going to give Billy one point there for at least doing a better job in that department.
 
@T-Rex I don't know why I didn't tag you in post #11, I meant to, I don't know what happened. I was waiting for you to respond and I just noticed it.
