Heard a corollary to that years ago:

"Nobody is completely worthless; they can always be used as a bad example".

I like the logo is it from an old car?

Repro of an emblem for a 1952 Chevy. Seemed appropriate!

I have caught some flack about the wooden chassis. Including my dad who has an EE degree from Duke.

But, when I first fired it up and had an issue that I couldn't identify, I took it to an amp builder friend of mine. He didn't blink about the wood chassis, which I thought was interesting. He liked my grounding scheme, too, with the brass plates. And he did locate my problem -- needed to firm up the ground on the output jack. It referenced ground on my meter but wasn't doing the trick under load.

If the amp flew with him, then I feel pretty good about it due to his experience and reputation.

In any event, it works quite well. Time will tell...

Maybe there's a get-together in the future where folks can try it out. You guys ever do that?

Welcome to the forum Jeff. Great looking build! Hope to see more amps from you in the future!
