Wolfe Amplification Hellfire- Have a quick listen

[TheDude]

To bad about the RoHS compliance issue. I know that they had to redo the AxeFX before they could sell it in Europe, so too bad for us...

Seems like a very nice amp. Would love to play one some day. In the US maybe.

I kinda looked into the rules a bit, since I;m not a 'big' company I think I'm still allowed to slide through the ROHS bullcrap. It runs off of a percentage of parts in the product that are compliant, and I only have like one or 2 components that don't fit the bill.

So they may be able to head overseas after all.

Got my first 3 serial number 'tags' in today. Wanted to keep a military theme, so I figured this would be a cool idea. Just have to drill another hole on the right side, and rivet it to the back side of the chassis.

 

[MarcusGHedwig]

That's so fucking sweet dude

 

[SocialNumb]

Can you put a dead Iraqi baby on it?


No, I'm kidding. Cool idea.

 

[BrettT]

Wouldn't that make the tone a bit "mushy"?

hahahaha dark

Now the only things missing are a peace sign and "Born to kill!".

Awesome thing with this serial # plate. Will you offer the amps with that military-like colors (i think its called cameo in english, or something) ?

I was thinking about camo tolex, but the stuff they have available looks like crap.

Spec-Ops Black... so you don't see it coming until its too late. lol.

 

[MarcusGHedwig]

Camo is done to death anyway IMO, I'd vote going for something more high-tech! (just pick a texture from some piece of military gear or another, I'm sure you'll think of something )

ha with all the lights on this thing, it's going to be hard to miss.

Most military gear is olive drab spray paint. That would save me a lot of money lol.

Rhino liner for the headshell is going to be optional, my buddy did it to his bass rig and it's really indestructible, and looks cool too.

I may go silver or white for tolex. Or just leave it up to the buyer since they are going to be made one at a time.

 

[JeffTD]

Fucking kevlar.

 

[Wolfeman]

Fucking kevlar.

Now that would be indestructible. You could even shoot the damn thing haha

Just got my Hellfire Ver 1.0 official schematics printed out yesterday. Large format printing is awesome. PDF's are probably one of the greatest inventions ever. Now I won't have to squint when building these things.

Also, someone wanted to know what the amp looked like when I was breadboarding and testing it? I warned you, it was a mess-

Yet somehow even in that form, it was still quiet!

looks really messy!
thx for the pic.

It was, but on the other hand it's very easy to experiment in that form. takes 2 seconds to flip out a component, turn it back on, and hear the difference.

The worst part was disassembling all that after it's working 100% the way you want it too

 

[Notuern]

That looks sooooo unsafe.
Still looking forward to hearing how it sounds in the end.
