Good tones, nice package.

Marshall certainly chose the right size and output to go after what a huge amount of the public is curious about, and I'm just as curious.

three 12ax7 and two 6v6 is like a bassman, i've dicked with a lot of small 6v6 amps lately and i haven't found one that i really liked. i think the 40w el34 amp would be cool though.

a 15W 2x10 isn't really small. I played a 15W 1x12 with my band and could get over the top of everyone. 6V6s would be even louder.

A lot of small amps don't need one. I forget the exact reasoning, but basically there's some part that means the full voltage doesn't get to the tubes until they've had a chance to get warmed up a little.

A Capacitor would do this job.

Like the_dude's imaginary tiny bassman, with 12 string strat bridge, which he'll play all the guitars he trying to scrape the cash together to buy through (effectively everything in the classifieds threads).

And I would like to know... All the parts for a Tremolo,Overdrive,Fuzz, Octave, and Green Ringer.

Why are you such a tiresome prick? You may not remember your ramblings but we're assaulted enough by them for them to be burnt to our fucking retinas.

along the lines I wanted to learn how to build them. I'm starting with a booster, then a fuzz. That's it though..
you must be really going out of your way to prove me wrong then...

Hello Blackstar/Orange/Vox!

Hmmmmm, I could see getting the 15 watt head, and running it through my 2x12 cab. As much as I liked my Tiny Terror head (sold sadly this past October to help pay for dental work), there were times when a 3 band EQ would have been nice to have for tone shaping. Low power heads are fun to have - you can drive them hard, and not have to worry about killing everybody else volumewise on a small stage. I gigged for years with 30 watt heads.
