Selling my base Bottlehead crack because I'm just not attached to it. I bought it as a kit from another user and I finished building it this past October. I stained the wood with danish oil/poly and sprayed the metal with bronze hammer finish paint. The wood came out great but the hammer tone is mostly just flat bronze color. I spent more than a week total building it and I used Kester 63/37 RMA Rosin solder. The unit sounds really nice and the tubes are very stable. I'm quite proud of how it came out. I paused the build process and didn't continue on to the speedball upgrade. I've only had it running maybe 20 hours total, no hum or hiss.
Included in this sale is as follows:
I do my invoices through Paypal and fees are included for buyer protection.
Thank you!
