Very nice build p-man! I would love to do one as well If there was a manual for it with images like Bottlehead provides :p

My afternoon was spent replacing the small O2 volume knob with the E9's. The small knob was too close to the jack. Dremeled my way through the faceplate to move the pot.

^^^ Well that certainly represents the small and large extremes:)
I assume the new knob does not actually contact the surface the amp rests on.
OTOH adding a rubber surround to the knob and a couple small wheels in the back you'd be able to adj the volume by rotating the whole amp, which might be cool too:)

This been quiet for a while, allow me to bump this up.

I build this Beta 22 a while back.

The transformer was housed in another chassis.

I wasn't entirely happy with it, but it at least had a proper chassis.

Then I ripped it apart, and turned it to this. :D

My god, these builds are gorgeous. I can only hope to get a somewhat professional result with my M^3 build. Still trying to find an affordable way to label the case in an attractive way.
 
 
Since you've all had experience with this before, what layout do you prefer? Volume knob in the middle, with power/LED on one side and headphone Jack on the other? Or headphone Jack in the middle, volume on one side and power/LED on the other?

I prefer Volume on the right. LED in the center. 1/4" jack on the left. But ultimately it's really up to you.
