In this vid, we'll finish building a tube guitar amplifier from the Telectro reel to reel tape recorder we disassembled in a previous video and a vintage 1958-1962 Thermos Products lunch box featuring futuristic, sci-fi, space age images of rockets, a lunar lander, a moon base, astronauts, and otherworldly landscapes. We'll also use a punch and die set to punch chassis holes and show how that is done. At the end of the vid, we'll test the tone of the final product with a Fender American Standard Telecaster with Seymour Duncan and TV Jones pickups, and we'll also see what's on the mysterious tape reel we got with the Telectro machine.
