hi guys, i'm also absolutely new to building a guitar amp but i want to build one now to accompany my new electric guitar.

i have a few chips lying around.. OPA2132 and LM3886 included. would this be good for a preamp and poweramp respectively? It'd be good to be able to make an amp out of the stuff i already have.

also, what kind of speakers can I use? and is a cabinet necessary? I've only built headphone amps so far :S

Hey there. I have been recently very into diy guitar stuff and have been wanting to build a guitar amp as well. Since I am only in high school and have a limited budget, what kind, if any, do you recommend? I have no prior electrical knowledge and a very limited knowledge of schematics. please help me
