Thanks guys. It sounds great and I had fun building the JLH on protoboard (even though I had lots of problems but Alex sorted me out).

Smeggys actual ones are much darker then that. The psychedelic glass and ash catcher with lid next to it probably helped add to your imagination.

General point of clarification: the intent of this thread is to post pictures of your own builds that you yourself built. Not builds you might pay someone else to build, regardless of how nice and regardless of whether or not you steered the aesthetic portion of the design. This is the DIY forum.

...and to get the thread back on track, here is the a Blue Hawaii I finished last week.





The tubes are biased for full power and it uses the stock BH power supply with dual Plitron transformers and a delay timer to preheat the tubes for 30 seconds. All the resistors on the amp boards are 1/2W PRP's save for a couple of Holco's in a spot where they will never see the full voltage from the PSU (Holco's should never see more then 100v). The volume pot is an Alps RK40 but it will be replaced with a 4-gang unit soon.
