The one thing I may change. I Had to splice the heater center tap, I had it grounded to the same ground point as the ht CT, and read somewhere it was better not to ground it there, but to the same point the buss is grounded to, so I did. I may make it neater.
It does look tropical. I like the visual.
There's a million poop brown or baby shit green boards right? Blue's Something different

Man I want to make one of these, I dont need it but I want one! 78 for the win!
This Mojo kit is very well put together, with good quality parts, and is almost idiot proof as I have proven.lol.Man I want to make one of these, I dont need it but I want one! 78 for the win!
It was a lot less stressful than building Ala carte. I always seem to short myself on something I need when ordering parts.
Building the 78 I actually had parts left over.
Order one up Paul! You got the building bug..don't fight it.

@paul-e-mann we cant get enough of build threads!!
Very nice build, I too would encourage others to get the kit, all the parts were very good quality.
Mine is quite as a mouse as well.
Here is mine.

Thanks for the compliment. Much Appreciated. Yours looked so good I couldn't post pics if it looked too bad..lol. you do nice work.
I have one like yours there with the mojo chassis and plates. I shortened the chassis up and stuffed it into a AVT150H headbox I had from a smoked beyond repair amp. Fits my AVT cabs like a mini 800 full stack.
My only gripe on the mojo 800 plates, at least mine, is that they are a bit dark compared to my actual 800. They should change up the color a bit.

In the Headbox. Yes, It's logo-ed to match my cabs. Not trying to pass off or sell a counterfeit or anything, so don't hang me. The head box is original Marshall.
Guys in the vintage section build amps with period correct parts throughout and put logos on them all the time and are spared from the gallows..

I put my 2204 clone in a Plex-style box. Horses for courses.
Nice Chris. I have one like that as well. Started out as a weber 1987 clone, but It was just too damn loud, so I redid it into a MV 2204. Much happier. Up to my ass in 2204's..lol.

How does everyone get the wires from the caps and resistors so straight? I couldn't figure that out when I built my amp.
