Two day amp building seminar
May 19/20 2007
Have you ever thought about how cool it would be to work on or even build your own amp? Where do you begin? How do you find good information? We are offering you a unique opportunity to learn about and actually build your own amp at one of our Two day amp building seminars. The classes are held at Egnater World Headquarters in beautiful Berkley, Michigan located just North of Detroit (Rock City).
Here?s how it works. When you sign up for the class, you are also purchasing a custom amplifier kit. The finished amp (that you build) is a superb sounding, hand wired Marshall JCM ?style? head. The circuits we have designed for you are highly modified and create much more gain, smoother tone (no ice pick to the forehead high end) and more punch than any stock JCM you?ve ever heard. If you are familiar with our Egnater amps, the sound is similar to Channel 3 of the TOL100 or IE4 or our current EG3 module. Each ?student? has his/her own work station for the two days. We then walk you through the process of building your amp kit one step at a time. You can?t fail because we are there to guide you. We take the fear out of it. You are guaranteed to walk out at the end with a great sounding amp head that you built with your own hands.
The requirements for success are simple. It helps to have some basic soldering skill, but if you have never soldered wires before, don?t worry. About 80% of the previous participants had no soldering experience at all. Within an hour or two, the fear was gone and they were ?soldering fools?. You really don?t need any electronic knowledge (though it doesn?t hurt). You should be somewhat proficient at using basic hand tools (screwdrivers, nutdrivers, pliers etc). That?s it.
This is a fun and exhilarating 2 days of learning and building. There is no better feeling than taking on the challenge and succeeding at building something with your own hands. Understand this will be a busy 2 days. It is critical that you arrive well rested and be ready to ?go for it?. You will see from the following pages it is important that everyone stay focused and arrive on time.
