Been meaning to share some photos of my Trinity Deluxe build, which finally got a nameplate last week, which I designed and simply got screenprinted onto an alumimium plate. Set's the amp off nicely I think! Any extra eagle-eyed of you may notice the zenner diode on the VRM is the wrong way around, which is why everything was rather quiet when I first flicked the power switch - its singing sweetly now! I've never had a valve amp before - what an amazing difference! I went for the Celestion G12H as it sounded way better than the "stock" Jenson's to me - I wanted the Tone Tubby Alnico, but couldn't quite justify the cost. The VRM works really well at pushing the amp, without upsetting too many neighbours, though it's still a LOUD amp!

I posted pictures on picasa (hopefully the link works!)

I'm sure there's heap full of dodgy soldering and wire layout, but I'm pretty proud of my first amp. So, what's next... :wink:

Nice first build and glad you got it all sorted out on the VRM. You could carefully shorten some wires now that your have it working. (e.g. heater wire from pilot light to tubes).
