    Hmmm I wonder hard it would be to make this bigger.... Like the size of a 100 watt Marshall amp kind of bigger...
    For some things, some times, it's the same time all over the world, and I think we know what time that is...

    Have a bit of a browse at 18Watt.com and the associated sites on the homepage, you need to be a member to dig deep but it's good stuff

    If you follow the link from Kimball's first post the dude doing the showing off has his guitar strung and tuned R Supp like Doyle Bramhall II

    Really does you head in the first time you see it.

    Lol didn't notice Dave now I have to check it out. I know the cabinet itself looked more complicated to build than the amp . Nice joints though
