Nope, that is pure John Hogan style. He did that to all his amps. He started with gutted organ amps and built them up from there. I think he spary painted one amp faceplate green but that is the only amp of his like that I think. Here is mine. Cheers.

You still have it? I thought you were going to sell it. But if you do you might not be able to replace it. I know it is especially good with Altec.
Hi John, it will be the last thing to go....so if I have to sell it, I will, but I REALLY do not want to do that. Cheers.
I still have the speakers too that I traded that amp for. They probably could be really nice speakers in their own right, but they just fit so well in the room as rear channel speakers in my home theater. I should show you a pic.It was an interesting day a couple of winters ago to meet you half way between NJ and Detroit.
I had three of those amps but now I have two. It was not possible to pick the two best and send you the third. Not because they sounded so much alike, nor because I would do that. But that each of the 6sn7/26/300b's were slightly different and all were appealing in their own right.
Hi John, I vividly remember that day as well. Man was it cold. I wish we could have hung out for a while. If you ever get around to it, you should replace the SpeakerLab 15" driver with the stock Klipsch K-33 15" driver they use in the Klipschorn. I heard the difference about a year ago when a friend changed his out. We listened to a veriaty of music for an hour then made the swap.....WOW, it is night and day. He ordered the K-33 straight from Klipsch for $130.00 a piece. With buying this business I would not be able to afford better 300B tubes for a while if I can manage to hang on to the amp, but that will be my first purches when I can afford it. Cheers.
