New Design 18 Watt Series boards and Layouts Underway

We have made the first 18 Watt sIII, Plexi and v6 using Triwatt style turret boards.
Watch for an update here. Gonna be the nicest 18 watts available.

- v6 design will be different in driving the 6V6 tubes
- sIII, TMB remain the same
- might do a plexi brown in place of plexi. will be trialing one soon.

Would you want the brown to be an 18 watt super lead (i.e. Vol1,Vol2,T,M,B,P opt Master) or still go with the standard 18 watt design? It would be cool to do the 18 watt SL like I did. I would also like to hear what it would sound like with 6V6s. Also I have made a few tweaks to mine. If you like I would be interested in helping define where the tweaks points are and what the optional values could be. Although, a lot of them are the same as the gain and tone tweaks for the sIII.

I'd like to build a 6V6 Plexi 18W in the not so distant future. I am going to maybe try some of your mods on it!
(not the same amp I say talking to you before about fyi)

Plan was to base it on the 18 watt format we already have, so not quite an 18W SL. And we'd appreciate your input.

I wonder how hard it would be to convert a normal (i.e. this past year's version) sIII v6 to the Plexi Brown version.
