I love how he just runs his hand over the knobs and puts everything at 10.

That's what I used to do all day long! I did start off slow, but by the time I finished working there I was up to 2 full amp chassis per day. And I LOVED it!!!

My god where has this channel been all my life

These vids make me want to start soldering and building amps :) even if I can only make bad soldering :)

Your wiring and assembly is beautiful!

Disregard last post about finding the right kit. This it it! Awesome!

Nice video. It takes me back to the days of my youth in the 1950s when I scratch built a lot of my Ham Radio equipment. Thanks for sharing.

You're doing an amazing work ! Thank you very much for the tutorials !

Great video and very informative. I love the roll of the knobs at the end.

Tube Depot, I love your videos, everytime I see one of your videos I imidiately get the urge to build one of your kits (specially this one ) but unfortunately my financial condition don't allow me to do so. I love your channel. You Guys Rock, Sincerely; Josh

Great to see you're back guys!

This is my kind of father and son project… Keep on rockin

Very nice job guys. Im actually building an 18 watt self-biased amplifier at the moment and this is great to watch!

This was a lot of fun to watch. I'd really like to try building a head sometime soon.

best video I've seen in forever!

i just finished building this amp 2 weeks ago and let me tell ya this head will blow your mind. And oh my god is it LOUD. I run mine without the rectifer tube and leave the 50 watt switch on the 50 Watt position. My signal chain is an MXR Carbon copy into an MXR gt-od, into a Boss turbo distortion, MXR 6 band eq, and then into a homemade volume attenuator to switch between rhythm volume and lead volume. Jumper the inputs, and tinker until you get the tone you want. You will not be disapointed!

Great demo !!.........Thank you guys!

Love the nuanced control adjustment . Dime It.

Rob Hull! You are the MAN!

This video is so satisfying!

Great video and great sounding amp! I imagine that the voicing of the amp on the board is another project altogether.

Now that was very interesting, i loved the rock paper scissors at the end, LOL

Hey Rob, try using nut drivers instead of pliers or an adjustable wrench to tighten the nuts on the front panel switches and pots. Nut drivers fit the nuts securely, won't slip, and have a smooth surface so they won't scratch. Otherwise, very instructive video! Thanks, Greg.

I have been watching this video for the last six months and i cannot wait to gather some money to buy the kit and make the amp myself!

Thanks. This is some quality knowledge!

@TubeDepotTV I'd be "road testing" those every moment of spare time I had! And building them, and testing them, and modifying, and enjoying the amazing tones that only a true vintage style amplifier can provide.

Well done, great compliments ...

excelente, very nice work

You guys make it look so easy. Great work! I plan to get this kit at some point. My biggest fear is screwing something up though.

Fantastic sound.

I wish more than anything that you guys offered a video (and kit) on installing an optional FX loop. That would be so amazing.

Thanks, great video!

Oh man this is awesome!!! I want one!!! :)

What fun! Thanks for sharing.

Great Video , Thanks , Most tech guys act like they are secret scientists or some shit , Luckily Guys like you show the love and know how to help others.

Cool, I'd be very interested in that amp!!

Great work guys (y)

Very slick amp, exactly what i am looking for. To bad i don't have the space or tools to accomplish building one. Very good video.

Inspiring, I wish i had the tools.

I´m waiting exactly for that!!! Please please do it!!

Good job!

that amp sounds incredible

I got a used Mesa Boogie Nomad 100. The tubes are from Tube Depot! Sounds great.

Thank YOU! You guys just built and totally nailed Marshall's greatest amp (a Fender copy nonetheless) Keep goin (y)

Hi guys ! Your work looks formidably neat ! On the other hand, I'm building a '59 Fender Bassman model 5F6 and was thinking about doing some modifications (I'm aware that a JTM45 and Fender bassman are quite identical in some aspects): 1- Changing to a solid state rectifier 2- Inserting an effects loop 1- If I do this, should I change some capacitors values in the rectifying section for bigger ones ?? (I mean with more capacity) 2- I've heard that this might be a waste of time in a fender bassman because the difference in tone wouldn't be that noticable... And as a valve state amp, matching the impedances would be quite troublesome and I would have to design some buffer to lower the impedances and back. Anyway, I'm an amateur on this, what would you recommend ? Thanks for your time!

fastest amp to dial in on the planet! I love the hand swipe to max her out! lol

I love the MojoTone Amp Kits,they have the best of every thing you'll need in your dream Amp!The 1959 100 watt Plexi British Amp "TUBE" is the very best you can ever use!My 14 year old son and my and my self have been working on our second tube amp now,and the results are unreal.To even consideration to purchase such an Marshall Tube Amp would be in excess of 5 to 10 thousand dollars!I know there are critics out there that saying,OH NO!A fact though.

I was wondering which ones could I use... Thanks so much!!!

jesus, this amp sounds like a beast!

Amigos, esse amplificador ficou beleza. Fantástico! Rio RJ

I always pre-solder the input sockets at the outside of the amp. After completion, remove the whole assembly and re-install in the inside

this is awesome

Can you do video on building a vintage AC30/6 TB complete with Vibrato and Tremolo? I'd be thrilled!!

I built These things back in the sixties, since then i´ve moved on a bit. Semiconductors will do the Job very well too

Yo this is sick!

holy crap that's awesome!

@TubeDepotTV Very true. If I was building the amp I would try and be as true as possible to the original tube compliment. KT66 tubes just have such a unique tone. Many people don't know this but the KT66 was a big part of Jimi Hendrix's sound. More bass than an EL34, more mids than a 6L6. Ton's of headroom, a good example being the Monterey Pop festival songs.

@TableWolfMusic I was talking about effects pedals. And I too, have a deep desire for a TubeDepot amplifier kit!

Oh hell yes! Great googalamoogala! This is the one that sounds like God shouting from the mountaintop! Many of us in the over 50 camp think of these as the "Allman Brother" Marshalls, violin-like sustain for days, killer for slide (brother Duane), goes with a Les Paul like beer goes with pizza! Who the hell needs pedals? Only 1 down side, grumpy grouches will be screaming "TURN IT DOWN" constantly.Not recommended for apartment dwellers or small beer joint gigs. A truly awe inspiring amp!

I love the way this sounds cranked. Pure awesomeness. I have never built an amp before but have a little experience with working with electronics. Which build would you suggest for a beginner? Thanks!

I wish you would build me a fender tonemaster, I owned one and my amp tech said that looking inside it was a work of art.... or a twin reverb without a printed circuit board, the old fashioned way, unlike the modern clones.

Hello, you are a master of the amps ... first of all this is a translation since I do not know English I am Spanish sorry..I have a question I want to mount a 6n2p and a pcl86 to make a 6w on a vintage radio chassis but I have a doubt about the mass ... gnd .... and the chassis..I do not know whether to make the chassis driver with gnd ... and if that is how I do it ... I connect all the points of mass to a single point ... it can be done in several ... or only the potentiometers and jacks go.

Thank you!

Thanx so much ;)

My little children after this video began to play the game - "Who will play first? (Clap-clap-clap!!!)" =) Thank's for all videos))

Great vid! Very interesting. yeah, the ole western shootout scene. hahaha can you tell me the cost of the kit? Just curious.

best amp ever !

Would it possible to have a demo of the amp. I know that there's one on KZfaq but there's so much effects on it. I'd love to hear it - as the audio sample at the end of your video sound just great - and the difference when you play with the different parameters you added to the JTM45+. Anyway, thanks a lot for all your videos and for sharing your amp knowledge.

full scrape,,, i like it loud,,, you had the master volume down right :)

Let me know when you release a kit to build a 1962 Bluesbreaker amp.

looks really cool. has anyone tried these? how's the price vs sourcing parts yourself? i have already assembled a mic pre (solid state with pcb) does that seem like enough experience?

Do you have a master volume version with a high voltage effects loop? With the plates to match?

Such neat wiring and attention to detail - truly excellent! So, when are you going to build a Marshall Major copy...?

I wish you would make some videos really showing how your kits sound.I would like to hear more before buying.Thanks

I would love to learn how to build my own 2 channel, twin reverb combo amp with effects loop.

Nice build..14:52..man you are speedy!

Sounds exactly like my 80’s Peavey Bandit.

@TubeDepotTV Thanks.

Great Video! I wish you did a more technical one though...

Thanks!!!

OCDs about some wires inside but eyeballs switch holes on the outside... why not measure the locations before inserting the other components?

Great work guys, thank you!! Lets see the hot rodded plexi ;)

Do you have specs in the kit to build it without the master volume, and other added controls? I'd prefer to keep it as close to an actual JTM 45 as possible.

This channel is awesome why am I 6 years late?

Great video. Hi, which name yellow tool clears the edge of the hole?

wow!! awesome! What is the feedback switch for???

Thanx, I'd mainly do guitar maintenance works... ( potentiometers, switch, pickups, groundings). How many watts should the iron station be? 30,40w or higher. A good brand for that ( long lasting) Thanx

@ChrisVGuitarist Thanks! I love that guitar!

Dudes!! Great job!! Just a question... What's the power rating of the pots?

I'm interested in the kits is this a condensed version of the video companion to the assembly instructions or the full assembly video? thanks

Sweet!

Oh sweet! thanks!

Is a full length version of the build available?

thx an other question al the parts you use can I them loose or is it special made for this project?

Hi, I don't know if you have answered this already, but is there a full assembly video of the amp? Would be very interesting! Anyway very nice work and sound of course!!

Very nice and informative. Where are these kits available?

The solder connections to the pot. bodies look like they might be cold. You might try using paste flux if that's a problem.

@TubeDepotTV Very cool!

You're doin a graet job. Was wondering how much does this kit cost?

from ground to the positive post on the can cap i just got 1095 on the 600v setting?? where could i have gone wrong
