So, my 20 year old son flew up from Modesto, Ca this weekend, & while he was here decided to make me a guitar amp, from scratch, from an Altoids tin, then, to boost the highs, he decided to build me a crossfeed circuit out of a smaller Altoids tin.

The thing is, it actually sounds pretty cool. It's completely clean, no disto, & flat, but if I want to plug in during my lunch time at work, I can without anything else.

Pics now, clips later, gotta buy an adapter.
