Thanks man! Just got to play around with it.
HOLY SHIT it is loud. Like, not even on one and somehow doesn't do bedroom levels like the 50w Verellen does. Kind of amazingly terrified of this little guy!

hahaha yeah. My little tiny apartment can't really handle me trying to spread out, so I gotta think like Japan and build up not out!

I did the same so I could have floor space in my room. So, yeah, definitely a thing.

Yes, but you brought old and loud amps and giant cabs hoarding to a whole new level.

I love to hear some high quality clips of the Spaldo. It always interested me, but I just couldn't take the risk, which is the same for the other Verellen amps.

I definitely want to do an extended demo of it for everyone, because there are only 3 demos online, anywhere and they are all less than 3 minutes.
Going to (hopefully) go over to Grrface's next week and record some decent demos

Initial thoughts: It's WAY SUPER LOUDER than I expected it to be. Right now I have it loaded with 5751's in the preamp which cut about 30% of the gain. I'm going to swap in 12ax7's and try it out with that as well to see how early it breaks up. Right now it's a pedal monster! But I've only got it at about 1 in my small little apartment.

Here are some more pictures!

I'd be interested to know how much clean volume is actually available, cause I need a cool pedal platform.

I'm curious as well. I'll bring both sets of preamp tubes along to see how they compare

My nightmare Peavey project I just wrapped up. Was a P.O.S China 6505+ 112 combo I scooped off craigslist for under 2 bills. Talk about poor quality materials, this thing was basically held together by the crappy tolex it was wrapped in, and the corner pieces that keep the original build held together for the most part. Chopped it up, bias modded it, re-tolexed in sonic blue, new 6L6EH power tubes, and a Weber Amsterdam 12 to top it all off. The Towelie inspiration came from the frequent breaks during the salvaging of the shit materials, which involved multiple sessions with my Luke Wilson x Alex K mini tube. Happy for the most part, now just need to get everything all broke in.

Don't forget to bring a towel.
