Aris Amplification

This is a 30 watt JTM45 circuit built into a Weber VST 5F6-A chrome chassis with Hammond transformers. GZ34 rectifier tube, 6L6 power tubes and ECC83s preamp tubes and phase inverter. A very effective post-phase inverter master volume helps take some of the SPL's away from the two 10" Celestion Vintage 10 speakers. All housed in a 12" deep dovetail-joined solid pine cabinet.

This has been my personal 'go-to' gigging amp for the past several years.

Another 30 watt JTM45 circuit built into a Weber VST 5F6-A chrome chassis, this time with Heyboer transformers in a 1x12" combo cabinet. I built and sold 3 of these amps in 2006.

This is an outboard reverb/tremolo unit....classic 3 knob Fender reverb plus the 2 tube Fender 'Brown-Era' harmonic tremolo. The deepest reverb you will ever hear...surf's up, dudes!

This is an amp I built from a schematic available at the www.ax84.com website...the P1. It is a single-ended 6 watt amp with a single EL84 power tube and diode rectifier. It has the feel and tone of a Marshall Plexi without the deafening volume. I have gigged with this amp (with a mic on the amp, of course), and people were amazed at the sound coming from it. The speaker is a 15 watt Weber Blue Dog AlNiCo and the cabinet is solid dovetail-joined pine. This is the first amp I built in true old-fashioned point-to-point style without a tagboard.

This is the prototype of the Aris Amplification Super 55. Eminence RWB speaker, 30 cathode biased watts. Like most tweed circuits, it gives up the goods pretty early on the volume control...which means it responds well to pick dynamics and guitar volume control setting.

This is a clone of the famous AC30 circuit with an added pre-phase inverter master volume. Sounds very British...but it is wicked loud. A quad of EL84s cooking is a beautiful thing, especially through a pair of Celestion Blue AlNiCo speakers.

This is a clone of the 1957 5E3 Fender Tweed Deluxe amp. Probably the single-most copied circuit in the modern amp world. 4 inputs, 2 volume controls and a single tone control. It produces 12 watts from a 5Y3 rectifier and NOS Brimar 6V6 power tubes. A great gigging amp for small rooms. It features a Weber VST 5E3 chrome chassis with Mojotone transformers. The speaker is an original 1967 Jensen C12N.

This amp is a modified version of the famous Marshall 18 Watt Model 1974. 2xEL84 power tubes, Hammond transformers. I built the LiteII version...single channel, Vol/Tone only. 2 input jacks...one for single triode only on V1, the other input parallels the 2 triodes of V1 for more gain. I also used a 5Y3 rectifier tube to take advantage of the 5V tap on the power transformer I had on hand. Eminence Redcoat Red Fang AlNiCo speaker.

Modified Reissue Marshall JTM45

This amp started life as a 1990 Marshall JTM45 head. I modified it to make it closer to an original mid-1960's JTM45 with KT66 power tubes, Obsolete Electronics RS-Spec output transformer, original spec filter caps and board components, and a hand wound turret board. The combo cabinet held 2 Celestion G12H30 speakers...what a great amp to play.
