I'll have it back together tomorrow :sarge:

Thanks for the info. I went to the ReRanch site and checked it out. I'll be placing an order soon. I hope mine comes out as nice as yours did!



They have good stuff , I used their "blonde" for a TV white Warmoth build and it went on perfect just like this . Lots of folks swear by RR paints so just pick a color and go :cool: This was much easier then I expected , well I don't think I even need to sand it .

Awesome work!

The Dwarf faceplate really pops against this color.

It looks like a brand new amp!

Thanks man ! Yeah pretty happy with it and it was super easy to do . It just didn't need any sanding or anything .That color just covered like a mofo , there was so much overspray it was crazy . Not on the cab , just everywhere else .Very happy with the results and I fixed a few solders while I was in there and cleaned the pot , I also noticed the speaker was hooked up wrong when it arrived . The amp freakin rocks , I'd say a wee loud for the bedroom but it sounds damn good and has killer natural feedback . I think it will indeed be a good little recording amp .

I just one of these. I can't get it to turn on. Does yours work with only using power cord or do u need batteries as well?

Did u have to make any repairs to get it running?

Thanks

I have not tried it with the batteries only because it takes a ton of them but it should probably work that way too . You only need either / or but not both to get it to turn on . Mine did have a broken on/off pot when I got it , it was pushed all the way through it's housing which I was able to put back together . It could be as simple as a broken pot but it's pretty lo-tech so it should be easily repairable , perhaps get it to your tech . It would be worth to fix it the amp sounds pretty darn good . And pics ! :snax:
