Post your low power tube amps...

[Alex_SG]

So I know most of us did this at the other place, but how about we do it here?
Let's post our low powered (<20W) tube amps.

Here's mine:

2013 Ibanez TSA5
Inbuilt Ibanez TS Tube Screamer circuit
5 W all tube - 1 x Electro Harmonix 12AX7 preamp tube and 1 x Electro Harmonix 6V6GT power tube. (Tubes courtesy of our very own Walks Backward) The original "Ruby" brand tubes were like Jack Ruby... Dead!
Celestion Tube 10 Speaker



I sold my Marshall G15RCD the other day as I wasn't using it, so now this is the only amp I own.

I just have the 5 watt Vjr...for now

 

[Alex_SG]

I love the cabinet on that... Makes an awesome amp even better!

 

[DPaul]

TY, I re enclosed it last yr, after all the mods were done.
Be pulling it back out to include the NFB circuit that @bea mentioned in another thread

 

[Alex_SG]

I've always been intrigued by the Valve Jr.
It may be my next amp, although I believe they aren't made anymore?

Keep an eye on out in the used market.
They come up here fairly frequently.
3 here on c'list near me.

Prices seem to be up, I got mine for $50 1 1/2 yrs ago, it didn't have the back, which is why I made a new cab for it.

Biggest problem with living in Australia. They don't come up often, and if I were to buy one from the US, the postage would be more than the amp!

 

[DPaul]

If you can come by the components locally, here's a good start

It's a pretty good amp, but by the time you buy & build, you could spend your money better.

I've got the Traynors big brother, YGL3 mark 3

Great amps, but HEAVY

I guess I should include the cabinet---in matching purpleness.
