I wanted to see how compact I could make a high-voltage, point-to-point wired Tweed Champ. Here’s the result. Leo Fender’s 5F1 circuit, but with a solid-state rectifier, built into a tiny vintage NOS Bud hammertone chassis. Front panel is gain (standby switch at zero), pilot lamp, input; rear panel is fuse, power switch, IEC and speaker jack. See my Instagram page for sound sample.

Small is the new big.
Can i offer you a suggestion?
Put all the content of this website you collected (projects, schemos, comments, pictures) in a book and print it.
I hate to see all this information get lost one day. I Know i would be the first to buy.

Hi Peter. I appreciate the positive feedback, thank you. I don't own the copyright to 95% of the material on this blog, so I couldn't ever sell anything containing it, not for a dime. Even attempting to clear it would take an army of copyright attorneys. But thanks for the enthusiasm. If you happen to know a publisher who would be interested in collecting and publishing the portions of this site that ARE my original material, please send them my way. In 10 lifetimes i won't have the time to self-publish anything. But I am always open to collabs with legitimate and experienced partners. Thanks! CR
I work for a publisher. We mainly do technical books for educational use.
Not that far off i guess...
Situated in Europe though.
i do think your own work is marvelous, but its the backdrop of lost times that gives your work the extra grandeur.
Let me talk to my boss.
sounds good Peter. Thanks. Maybe she/he will determine that the bulk of the material falls under fair-use. i just don't know, and i can't pay for the legal advice that would make me comfortable enough to take such a tack myself. i DO have hi-res of everything you see on the site, safely tucked away...
