The Amp Garage

it's cool to read that you still feel this way after having your SSS 002 for a while! Maybe building that amp and playing through it is the fountain of youth! haha

No problem, and it basically reduces the output 1 dB if the feedback goes direct to the grid. Other than that, I don't know. Thanks, Martin! Always a cordial interaction with you that I continue to appreciate! I updated the layout with this correction. Fun fact: I looked through my pictures and I h...

oh!! That is much clearer.. Thanks, Martin! I apologize if I missed any communication about this discrepancy before. Looks like I'll need to try it in my amp and possibly update the layout

The swap between the 10k & 2.2M was either a tip I received from someone (likely) or based on observation of other amps. The stability of the reverb was not great with 2m2 in series with the reverb send pot. I also realized that feedback made much more sense with 2m2 and the 10k in series with the ...

Sorry, I have not been following this thread too much. As for the reverb, the quick history that I recall is that when the original V1 LNFB was incorrectly 1M, the reverb seemed very weak by comparison. I focused on wet/dry mix afterward with some success but something still felt off. When it was br...

That means running the ground up to the furthest point away from the chassis which is right at the send/receive jacks. Attaching my layout as another way of looking at this. The reason to separate the grounds instead of one single ground point for all of your filter caps is to reduce ground loops by...

Thank you for taking the time to review! I appreciate the honest feedback

Lol. I mean.. we DO lust over these amps

And yeah, true that the resistors are fairly simple to decipher. I don't know too much about these tweedle Dee amps and lineage. Seems cool tho and spikes my interest a bit

With some help from AI, we might be able to reverse the b/w filter. This is just with a free tool so I'll keep trying with others and Photoshop neural filters.

Or you could go the other way and take a photo of a resistor and b/w it to see what comes close. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Custom reverb Sig... CRS vs CRS strikes again...

Deleted. Accidentally replied to a deleted comment.. I think?

Oooo yes it is the custom. CRS vs CRS my mistake

CRS v3 built in 2011 s/n 44. Someone posted this on the two rock Facebook fan page last night. Hope this helps some.

I think this is very cool!! Thanks for posting! Trey has a big following for those who follow his stuff so I appreciate it.

I successfully recreated my circuit in LTSpice for further study. Sharing here for anyone that's interested in tweaking the circuit. One thing I might amend in this circuit is using 10KA send and 10KA return pots. Or at least a 10KA on the return instead of 1M I currently have. If you've already mad...
