@@roncarter2188 👍😉 As I said before, "I've been a "Practicing Guitarist" since 1974, my fascination with guitars and amplifiers has only grown as time has passed."
@hkguitar1984 When I wish I started playing in 1974, I would have seven then and maybe I would be way better guitar player....Started working on amps about 5 years ago, it's a great hobby.
@@roncarter2188 they are a great hobby. I was in the Air Force during the early 1980s, back then we still had CRTs and Tube Amplifiers that I was trained to repair. Its never to late to start enjoying the guitar, it is an endless learning process. I just wish I'd had the foresight back in the day to stockpile vintage tubes. I remember buying large boxes of NOS domestic manufacture Mullard and RCA tubes for less than $20 (no body wanted them in the mid to late 1980s). Sigh......... As far as being a good or better guitar player, I don't believe skill level directly affects enjoyment of playing. Sure there is the accomplishment factor, but that happens at all skill levels. Best quote by Joe Bonamassa to an interviewer who was of limited guitar playing skill, Joe said (to use an analogy), "You don't have to be Lance Armstrong to enjoy riding a bicycle!" I do believe that statement holds a lot of truth in it. Keep Playing and you'll always be a Practicing Guitarist.
sounds cool- thanks for more in-depth descriptions ! AND you're a lefty ! I have a BELL Carillon I'm getting ready to mod up. Cheers! Are any of these amps for sale?
No I'm not a lefty, the video is flipped around so it makes it appear that way. But thanks for your input. I do have some for sale on Reverb. It listed at Ron's Gear Depot - Maryville Tennessee

That is a wonderful sounding amp! Point-to-point on the inside too I bet. Good stuff!
Yes sir, thank you.
Hello Ron. That's a mint amp. We just don't get small amps like that in the UK. There seems to be thousands in the States. Take care Ron
Thank you my friend. You know just the same I see amplifiers in the UK that I whish we had here in the states. Good to hear from you, take care.
Keep up the good work dude !!!!!!
Thanks man, I'm going to try and post a video every week, I mean it's not like I don't have the amps so I'll make it happen. Thanks for your input.
Nice 👍
Thanks my friend.
