Re: Amp build gig report

Bob,

Good to hear it's up and running. I remember seeing the troubleshooting thread.

Maybe I missed it but what was the problem in the cab vs. out of the cab?

Thanks

Cap on Standby Switch

Working on a Tweed Bassman (5e6a) for a friend. New power cord, remove death cap, filter caps etc. There is a .05u/600v cap from the standby switch to ground. It has been replaced with a 600v 715 series cap. Should this be removed or replaced with a safety rated cap? http://ampwares.com/schematics/b...

Re: Fender Tweed Twin Reissue JB Edition

It does indeed have the typical pair of 100r resistors to ground as well as a back to back pair of 12v zeners from center tap to ground.

Re: Princeton reverb bad distortion

Once your voltages are sorted out...

Adding a very large (470k - 1M) grid stopper to the phase inverter can do wonders for the overdrive/distortion when cranked.
