Whilst this is a 'Home' PG one off, its been done how I think PG would have done it themselves back in the day. Kudos to you for that Nico. Simply stunning.

Thanks for all the comments; I am very happy with the amp as well.
After installing the plexi, it is almost impossible to take a decent picture of the amp because of the shine, but I tried.
When powered up, my cam flashes all the time, and with the flash turned off, there is not much to see [I need a better camera Brett!]
In real life it's really something to see those four green, and 16 red led's glowing in the dark.
A couple of you guys have PM-d me about the build, so I will post a "building the MS875" thread in a couple of days.

If you could see it for real, you would find that all the goldplated parts, along with the red parts like coils and torroids plus the black of the railcaps etc. fill up the amp with soo much colour that adding lighting to it, would not suit it.
This is one very colourfull amp!. Also I was glad Ivar did not want to have the original colour of the led's changed; it all comes together beautifully when it powers up.
I find myself again and again powering it up, just to look at the glow once more in the dimmed light before going to bed...I promise to try and make a decent pic of it powered up this weekend.
Here a small preview of '"building the MS875".

Yes, in fact first it seemed to be a nightmare for my marriage, but now that the amp is finished, everytime I lay the amp on the table my wife wants me to do the same to her.....mhyde71 wrote:and does the amp still work post photo shoot?????????
Guess it's because this amp actually lookes like a huge item from a jewelry-store. 
did you have all those fittings gold plated or did you buy them like that? thse fet bolts look superb in gold
