Just a 5F4?
The 5F4 (and the like) is still one of my favorite tweed Fender amps....
I think they are right at the very start of what we think of as modern sounding, vacuum tube guitar amps.

How did you make the board? Did you make your own template, or buy one?

5f4 board

i made the board myself, since this amp is a reverse layout like a jtm45, i drew the board with a cad program, printed it out, taped it to the board material and drilled. i ordered the eyelets from mouser. i counter sink the bottom side of the holes, i used a large center punch to flare the eyelets into place. the center punch and the couner sink are the same angle. the board material comes from mcmaster carr. if you need a drawing of the board let me know.

What type of material is it? How much did you pay? I'm interestede in making my own boards, because I keep getting crappy boards from mojo. I think I would like to go with black though. I checked out that mcmaster carr site lots of good stuff there, thanks for the info.
