When you opened it up I was expecting neat and tidy hand wiring not PCBs. Sounds great now clean and driven, HiWatt heaven. If that's crap guitar playing Martyn I may as well sell mine. :)
Hello Rob. It's a shame it's not hand wired. Still sounds good. though. some days I feel like I play crap. Lack of practice and dodgy thumbs. Take care Rob.
Martyn nice fix for this amp. So was this made in the UK or by the looks of the construction I’m thinking China…. Great work and outstanding playing, take care my friend.
Hello Gary. I am not a fan either. It seems to have been the trend over that past few years, even in Boutique amps now. Thanks for watching and take care.
Hi pal, I've got a roost 150w from if I remember it's a 71 could be wrong but talking about loud,holy Toledo batman,it's from when hiwatt went bump and I think sound city bought the old stock, partridge transformers a few original valves 4 mullard and two Marshall power valves,it's unbelievably loud.hand wired built like a brick sh.. house
Those early roost amps were great amps. They still make Roost amps. There is a website for them. I wonder if they are as good as the old ones. Thanks for watching and take care.
Very good playing as well as electronics. GOD BLESS YOU! GLORY BE TO GOD!!! INJESUS NAME!!!!!!! AMEN!

Hi I've worked with those tube sockets. I believe the shields are aluminum. I use plumbers flux and it seems to allow the solder to flow...
Hello David. That's interesting. I will give hat a try next time. Take care.
I've got one of these in my stash awaiting a restoration.
This just might be the inspiration to get me started!
Hello Brad, thank you. I look forward to the video. You have a really great channel. I am so busy, I struggle to get time watch it. Take care Brad.
Sounds cool to me, as is!!!!
Hello, thank you. It's stable now. Let's hope it doesn't have anymore problems. Thanks for watching and take care.
Ooooh a new one. Cool ❤❤❤
Hello. Yes, it's not bad. Not as good as the early ones though. Take care.
Great skills, not just sorting out the amp but the playing is great too. I'm trying to place your accent, where you from?
Hello Richie, thank you. I am from Mansfield in Nottinghamshire. Thanks for watching and take care.

Hello Ron, thank you. This one was made in 1989 so I guess it will UK made. Take care mate.
Never been a fan of amps with PCB mounted tube sockets.
