Default Tweed Bassman build thread

Been a couple of years since I've posted one of these, but now it's time to do it again.

My Mojotone Tweed Bassman kit was delivered today while I'm here at work. This is one of those bucket list amps for me. Been wanting to build this one for a couple of years now, especially after building its English twin brother, the Marshall JTM45, for a friend a while back.

I've been doing a lot of reference book studying, learning, and have learned a ton about tube circuits since my first amp. I've also learned a handful of little tips and tricks from some pros I'll point out as well as I go. I've also bought a lot of upgrades to my tool and test gear collection that make this a lot easier and more fun.

I'll start unboxing and inspecting parts tomorrow and Monday, and do a full inventory to make sure I have everything I should. Pics will start coming then.
