I know this was discussed, and nixed primarily due to WHS issues (mains voltage) and the related insurance complications. Adam, quite rightly, didn't want to feel responsible for any electricutions.Quote:

Not that this isn't already a fantastic little unit, but if there was an option to buy just the amp, and choose between an 8, 10, 12 maybe even 15 inch speaker for around the $250-$300 mark I think you might get a few more bites from the tight-ass DIY crowd (that'd be us).
If you wanted to get into it you could sell tolex, tweed or vinyl coverings, speaker grills and maybe even a bare-bones cab.
You could have a customisable amp kit without the worry of people electrocuting themselves. The closest anyone would get to any sort of electrical/hot work would be soldering on speaker connections - no different to soldering up pick ups etc in the guitar kits.
These are actually already on sale Andy, at a special price too, contact Adam for details.
There would be nothing stopping you taking the chassis out and either making a head from it or putting it into a larger cabinet.
I made my Vox VTX20 into a head and have a couple of different cabs I can run it into. Just remember never to switch a valve head on without a speaker connected

I went looking for this amp today and can't find it on the website. Have they all been sold ?

I ordered one today, so they are still available. Look in the 'Announcements ' thread for the special deal.Quote:
