New build ultimate dumblebased amp (3):more depth in tremolo

Since I build my amp and published it on this forum I didn't change anything in the schematic, but lately I noticed that my tremolo was not as deep as the old Fender-amps. But all these are not bias-driven tremolos and for me it wasnot clear if it was even possible to reach better results with my bi...

Re: New build ultimate dumble-based amp (2)

New build ultimate dumble-based amp (1)

Last month I finished my new amp based on a lot of research on Dumble amps and especially this wonderful forum.
