Tiny Giant
Tiny Giant was along the same lines as some of my other low powered chassis-type amps only this is the lowest output one yet at a whopping 1.1 watts.

Little Giant
Little Giant is a 2w-4w pratice amp that came at a time BigDaddy was in need of a small amp for his situation but couldn't build any longer. He made it clear a tone stack was mandatory so I added this and give him credit as it is better than only a simple tone control. We had animosity through this…
