It's 2017 so isn't it technically before Labor Day?

They sound awesome. Tube distortion is great on the amp and loud as hell for a 15 water. Spring reverb is heavenly and the Rotary Cab sounds better than my Leslie did. I'll have some clips of all of it soon.

I love this photo so much. Also, didn't know they made or200's.

Oof that's sweet. Do you run the peavey into it? Or just bass to the power unit to cab?

Something I've been putting together. No prizes for guessing the inspiration.

Also that Electric is so sweet, although I guess you can tell that I think that already from my previous post.

Custom Verellen "35 watt" Hiwatt-ish head atop my 70s Hiwatt cab... I say "35 watt" because this thing is easily as loud as my '77 Custom 50 was, and sounds just as good...

Did you build this from a kit? Or some other way. I'm very intrigued

The amp itself is a Hayden Essex Blonde that i pulled from a combo and fixed up (needed a fair bit doing, plus I wanted to move the volume (Earthquaker Sound Projector was aesthetic inspiration)). I built the housing from scratch though and got the faceplate Etched at my girlfriends dad's work. It has its quirks (the reverb is super jacked up, you get some bleed from it if you crank it as if the amp was on full gain, so you can do a weird clean and dirty simultaneously). Not sure if I can/want to fix that yet.
