I got the ULTIMATE amp for Father's Day!!

Man, it's great to be a dad. My three boys (ages 8, 6, and 6) know how much I love amps and decided to build me one for Father's Day...

Here it is. The initials for the logo are each of their first initials. Note, this is a non-master volume, non-powerscaling amp.



Simple layout- two speaker outs. Wired up for 8 ohms each.



Here's the best part- Real point-to-point wiring. Audiophile parts, high grade components. I love the color coding. Real quality workmanship.



It's already awesome being a dad. It's priceless when you're kids take note of what you really dig and give you a gift like this. One that really took their time and dedication. I'll treasure this for the rest of my life.

I'll record some clips and post those as well!

Cheers & Happy Father's Day,

Khan.

Congrats! That is awesome. Definitely hang on to that cool amp. Someday when the kids are gown up and gone (which happens all too fast) you'll pull that out of a closet or box and have a huge grin from ear to ear. I guarantee it

Priceless!!!

I've heard that those pre-fabbed Buster Brown Head shells are indestructible.

Have a great Father's Day!
