Since you've already built a Firefly, I'd recommend the Tweed Princeton 5F2-A circuit for your next build. I cut my teeth on this circuit and have probably built at least 10 variations on it. It sounds great clean or cranked and loves pedals, especially Boss OD pedals.Originally Posted by luvmyshiner
The 5F2-A is basically a Tweed Champ 5F1 circuit with a tone control. The tone control makes the amp more versatile.
Here are some of the amps I've built:

The last one on the page with the yellow face plate was built for a friend a couple of years ago who is still using it and loves it. That is probably my finest work to date. Since it was for someone else, it had to be bullet proof.
As luck would have it, I have a layout and schematic on my site:

If you decide to build this, PM me. I have some supplementary materials you might find useful.
This is a great beginner's project. Maybe I should do a tutorial on this one next?
