Off to the workshop to mock something up .... Back from the workshop ... here's the results.

That's a good Q @darrenking. I'll have to think about that!! Right, having completely forgotten to think about it ... my sub-conscious has clearly been working on it because an idea has just popped ...

Or could the mounting plates be fixed into a recess in the front so that they sit flush with the surface?

You’re hiding it well......

I do hope to build a valve combo..... I had planned to do a Princeton clone but they are too loud for a home amp. Found a series of YouTube videos about building a clone of a Supro amp - single ended...

I’ve also got a Fender Frontman 15R combo - actually doesn’t sound bad - A Micro Cube with added speaker out socket that gets used, with an open backed cab with a 10” Jensen ceramic speaker, in the wo...

What are you using to make a noise? Hmmmm. This could get embarrassing. My "main" amp is a Tech21 Trademark60, 1x12" (60w) combo. Bought from a mate a good few years ago, I really like flexibility a...

I have gone through quite a few amps and a shed load of pedals. I could make some good noises but getting from one type of sound to another was taking time..... I sold the lot and bought a Fractal Aud...

I built 5 in 5 months after seeing Bailey’s live streams. About to start my 6th, my first Bandsman! At the rate I’m going that is 12 a year. The main reason is, I got quite a lot of guitar wall hanger...

.I have a few dotted around at friends... That gives me an idea ... You build some, send them to me. "They're not mine, they're Deej's". I build some, send them to you. "They're not mine, they're t...

Now, I have "a few" more, many of which I've built myself. It's addictive ... but in a good way Tell me about it @TV1010101 and these are the ones my wife knows about...I have a few dotted around at...

You have to blame the dealers......tempting you in with the free video stuff and then when you are hooked............ That's a very good point @frocesterbill IIRC, when I attended my first Bailey c...

@frocesterbill yeah i'm ok thanks - working from home since Covid hit has allowed me a bit more time to make a guitar at home - need to build another soon and i think i need to move house to get a bet...

@richyc - I'm pretty good - the bug really took a hold after being in the workshop in June last year - two builds completed at home and a Bailey acoustic kit in the garage waiting for some time.... Ho...

@frocesterbill how are you? i see you've been busy since last summer in Scotland!
