hmmm what am i thinking.  some slight mods.. and you have a stereo 8 watt amp three tube gainstage..

have to change a few values.. but heck this thing comes with the all the transformers and tubes caps diodes.  

unless you have a huge part supply  this is a steal of a deal..

Interesting. Nice of em' to include a schematic. Did you check out the 6mb assembly manual? $139 & all you need is a cab and speakers. It could make a nice combo or head.

Any ideas how an 11MS8 sounds as a guitar power amp tube? I've got a couple of really nice preamps that could benefit from a nice low wattage tube power amp. I've considered building a champ or gilmore jr but those designs already have preamps, this thing'd be perfect for my application without any mods if it sounds good being fed by a guitar pre.
