Ceriatone AH-50 Amp Kit Build

[SKU]

Read somewhere that there's an art behind twisting those wires. Do you experiment with the number of twists or just twist them by intuition?

I'm sure PLX would agree, but I've found the best way is to take a long lead of wire, bend it, put the 2 cut ends into a drill chuck and lock in, put a pencil or similar in the looped bent end of wire, then twist with the drill till it's a nice, tight twist. But not overly tight, and depends on the gauge and type of wire used.

Looks super sweet. Nice work!

When you order the kits do they come with some additional instructions or just the layout that's available on the Ceriatone site?

I got several hi-res gutshots of the amp off Nik's website.

Also, the layout.

Nik was great about answering my questions, as well.

What does this do?

Isolates two specific frequencies before the signal gets to the tone stack.
