  • Tedibear's First Amp - Ruby

wern101 Very cool looking little amp there

thanks, was a fun little project, I think the next step will be to do an board etching, should make life a bit easier.

wern101 You could also do custom designs on the body?

The Body was something that was Lying about and will change.. at-least on one, and you know me.. custom graphics a must.

wern101 What was the cost of one then?

the cost, R285-00 each

Tuckstir and will change

Maybe a metal housing?? ?

That's dirt cheap! What if you added two together and made a bigger amp? Would that be possible? (I have no clue how these things work, so pardon my ignorance)

there is an option where you can add an headphone out.. which will cancel the speaker.. if my understanding is correct. which means you could connect it to bigger speakers, like a HI-FI but if you going to go that route.. just mode a portable radio..

    Nice! Rubies are awesome little practice amps- they have a nice dirt to them

      Nice job! <3
      But here is how to save yourself all the stress...\

      Actually get in the car... Go to COMMUNICA (also way cheaper) stand in the queue... and hand your list of components to the guys & gals across the counter. They will almost certainly have everything you need... but IF THEY DON'T... they will very knowledgeably recommend a suitable alternative. These guys are experts at what they do and their knowledge is priceless in situations like this.

      Get home with EVERYTHING and fire up the wire!!

      I reckon that drive would be a bit longer for tedibear than you'd think...?

      I supposed I Could go for a Friday afternoon meander..but why.. its actually fun researching, hunting, learning, scheming,

      and can you imagine how boring my post would have been.
      "boy walks into shop, hands over list, pays, leaves"

      but than you for the heads up, i see they have an online shop, will add them to the list of sights for Tedibear's second amp - something valvie

      V8 I reckon that drive would be a bit longer for tedibear than you'd thin

      yeah it'll be about an hour and a half's drive for me,

        I've had some success with mantech too. They're a lot cheaper than rs and don't have the weird split delivery.
        It can be difficult to find what you're looking for on their site but I'm going to be using them in the future.

        Yeti I’ve been pretty happy with Mantech -good prices and i used to pre-order online then go and collect when I was visiting a client around the corner from them in Selby. They also had good quality 3PDT stomp switches for pedals.
        Shipping was reasonably priced from what I remember.

        Does that have an option to hook it up to a bigger speaker? Should have a significant tonal difference

        These 2 as for now don't, but setting up and headphone/aux jack is relatively simple, and perhaps will do that in future efforts..
