DIY pocket sized guitar amp

12bar · 10-29-2007, 01:40 PM

i've seen these things made out of everything from cigarette boxes to altoid tins but i can't seem to find any resources to wire up my own. if anyone has seen a "how to" or knows "how to" i would appriciate it.

(sorry if this is too "geary")

The cigarette box ones aren't DIY. I've seen them for sale on ebay & elsewhere.

somebody DIY'd them. the wireing has to be pretty simple.

Well, I googled and found this link: http://tangentsoft.net/audio/cmoy-tutorial/ and they show a schema.

But it's for a headphone amplifier...if anybody knows anything about electronic, maybe he/she can modify it.

But I'd really love to build myself one of these things...if you find a schema, do post the link here please.
