The amp Gilmore Jr. 1/2 watt is finished and I love it! In fact, I haven't played any of my other amps since.

I have about 20+ hours of video that I've edited to bite size portions. The videos will document the amp build and some of the troubleshooting I had to do when it was blowing fuses.

In this first video, I'm mounting the power and output transformers, both Mercury Magnetics. If you haven't looked into Mercury, check them out. I heard nothing but good reviews about them and I can confirm them. The amp sounds great!

To save time, the videos will have sections that go into overdrive as I do some grunt work. Throughout, you will see comments and tips related to the build and sometimes, just funny thoughts I have during the build (especially after I shocked myself).

Thanks for reading and viewing! Let me know what you think.
