Demo of Mojotone GA-5 Amp

I built this amp from a Mojotone kit. It was a very easy build, compared to other amps. The GA-5 makes a nice practice amp, as it is only 5 watts. Here are some photos from the project: photos.app.goo...

Came for the amp review, stayed for the musicianship.

Thanks for listening!

Great demo and lovely playing. The Vox AC4TV (tweed-type circuit with no tone stack) with the 10” speaker also makes a lovely jazz amp. Much less muddy than most low-watt amps. If it breaks up too early for your playing style, just swap the 12AX7 for a 12AY7.

[@RichieBielak]

Thank you! I should try the 12AY7.

Nice trash can!!

[@ioodyssey3740]

What effects are you playing through?

[@RichieBielak]

I was just using a reverb pedal.

[@russellesimonetta3835]

If that has an 8 ohm tap a 10" speaker would sound nice!

[@RichieBielak]

I don't think the output transformer has an 8 ohm tap.

[@russellesimonetta3835]

@@RichieBielak yeah it's got the champ trans.

Gonna buy this kit except for the cab and speaker and run it into a 12 inch 8ohm speaker. Gonna build it as a head. Think itd be giggable through a larger cab. Nice sounding amp

[@RichieBielak]

Yeah, its a cool little amp. I wanted little more clean headroom, so I changed the negative feedback resistor form 47K to 22K.
