Sloth Guts

[War_in_D]

The thread on Fusionbear and his amps, got me to thinking about taking some pictures of mine for posterity. Also, when I received it, it only had one end bell on the transformer and it's been really bugging the OCD in me.

I had reached out to Mercury Magnetics a week or so ago to see if I could purchase an end bell and needed to get some measurements for them so that they could punch the exit holes in it and thought I'd take a few pics while I had it out of the chassis. Also, HUGE shout out to Dave at MM for helping me out in getting the right end bell for it, and making sure that everything "fit" like it should. Amazing customer service!

I present to you "Sloth". Built by Carl (aka @Fusionbear) in October of 2018. I hope he doesn't mind me putting this out there, but I feel like it's bonafide work of art I tell ya!!

Cool! I sourced the exact components that Soldano used except for the output tubes and transformers.

That amp is a beast! Enjoy it!

It certainly is a beast! Sounds amazing and also the reason I own a Fryette PS2.

Put some clips dammit!

I suck too bad to post any clips of my own. LOL

Here is a short youtube clip of Carl testing it out before he sent it back to me after doing some work to it. I'm telling you, this thing smokes, as does Carl's playing!

I opened the thread specifically to say that I read it as "Goth Sluts" and had to double-take to see it as it actually was.

Either I have mild dyslexia or some other, less-admirable affliction, methinks.

Does mrs. Bear know what a cool catch she has?

Haha, I think she does, but I got the better deal. She is equally happy going to see thrash bands, rock bands, country, and Mexican music...

I named the last amp I built after her.... Emma!
