bump for some more advice.

That's pretty highly customized!!! Beyond all the "Vertex Modified" stuff, I'm interested in that Holy Grail reverb pedal. Had a hell of a time finding the right reverb pedal and I'm not all that happy with my Hardwire Reverb. Some pretty serious mods to that Boss volume pedal... That Lovepedal COT...

good catch. Sounds great...

Thanks man and congrats on a beautiful sounding amp! I tend to live in those first couple settings on the high filter as well. Was he playing a strat? Sounded like it. Sounds like a strat, although Terry tends to play his humbucker guitars most of the time. I would not have predicted he would have ...

I just sold my stock OTS for 1200 shipped. It took several months but I think once the supply of cheaper used ones dried up I found a buyer.

Here's a clip of Terry Haitt, local blues hot-shot playing the first #002 I built, 100W version. Recorded with a hand held zoom camera through an open back 2x12, although I'm not sure what speakers they had loaded in the cab. He's got the first gain stage up pretty high and you can hear how dirty t...

No offense to bigwebb83, but it sounds more like a tuning or intonation issue with the "b" string, personally. I hear it at the end of clip 1 too when he plays that same IV/I triad figure. -Aaron none taken. I think that is the issue. I am the worlds worst for just getting a feeling and turning on ...

I agree. The preamp tubes is where a lot of tone lives. The speakers play a very important role in Dumble amps. I would guess that most use the Celestion G12-65's with the EV 12L Classic as another good choice. Thank you for this suggestion. I took the RCA I had and switched it out with v1 which is...

here is a grouping of all the clips I've done messing with the amp. http://soundcloud.com/bigwebb83/sets/ce ... ss-clips-1

I don't think you can find a good full set of NOS tubes at your price point. So you are limited with what you can do. I don't think the heart of the SSS is in the output tubes anyway. As stated earlier, the heart of the tone is not coming from the reverb tubes either. I would try to focus on preamp...

Looks like a 250K mid pot and 500K bass pot, which differs from both SSS schematics recently posted here. FWIW, those who posted said that errors were possible. They could also be changes made by Nick. I will say that I switched from 500k, 250k, 500k to 250, 100, 250. I did this at the suggestion o...

no it does not. I've posted multiple clips. You can be the judge for yourself.

ok guys. Gut shots have been posted. Detailed ones at that. Now it's time to see how many people actually wanted them in order to assist me vs how many people wanted them just to have them.... I'd really appreciate some advice on a direction to go with tubes. I WANT: Nice round tone with plenty of s...

thanks for posting this man... I didn't have the "guts" to take it out and do a gut shot. Hopefully this will warm up our welcome on this site somewhat....
