Amp Build

Post by danfenton »

Hi!

I've just got a reply back from Hull University to say they have accepted me on their Electronic Engineering course which i'm really excited about. So i'm thinking i'll do some reading before i go and hopefully have a go at some electronics projects so i don't get too baffled when i start the course. My main interest is electric guitar and as it happens i'm looking for a new amp to replace my AC30.

So i'm looking for an amp project which is pretty mid/high gain but not classic sounding. I'm thinking Hughes & Kettner style (i've always wanted one of them :lol: ) I found a schematic for a Hughes & Kettner Triamp after some searching on the internet (http://www.freeinfosociety.com/media/pdf/3216.pdf) it looks complicated, i doubt very much i'd be able to pull something like that off so i'll put that one aside for now.

So my question is, is there a known working project that i could get started with which is kind of loosely based around these kind of amps?

Thanks a lot
Dan
