That was my thought as well. Thanks for the tip on the zener.

Re: "New" 102 ish FET options ...

Been reading up on different approaches for this and have come across a few instances of damaged FETs and transistors most likely from over-voltage. Anyone here ever add over-voltage protection tho the FET circuit?

Re: "New" 102 ish FET options ...

I really like the treble bleed. It helps balance the clean and OD tones. I usually build the amp without then use a pot and a .001uf cap to dial in to taste. I've always ended up between 100k and 150k. When building a board from scratch I add eyelets for the extra resistor and cap. On this build I u...

Re: "New" 102 ish FET options ...

Thanks for the replies!! The EP-3 is one that I remember seeing.

JD0x0 - The LND150 idea is intriguing. Any chance you have a schematic?

"New" 102 ish FET options ...

Started a 102-ish build back in 2018. Populated boards, installed most hardware, wired the OT and a few other things. Then it sat... Finally got back at it a couple weeks ago. Had a couple minor issues when I fired t up - had installed a 100r pot for the bias instead of 10k and a 220k dropping resis...

Re: Princeton Reverb and Adjustable NFB placement/routing

To slow down the tremolo replace one of the .01 caps in the oscillator with a .02 (so you have .01, .02, .02 instead of .01, .01, .02). For more a more intense trem replace the cathode cap/resistor of the oscillator (3.3K/25u) with a red LED.

Re: 1948 Supro..? My project....

Here’s the thing..this schematic was the one Supro manufactured and sold. I shouldn’t need to do bypass caps....more grid leaks..etc to make it sound good right? "Sound good" is very subjective. Did you listen to/play the original? My experience with most amps of that era (pre 1950) is that they we...

Re: I thought I had this figured out...

And, there is NO SCHEMATIC TO BE FOUND , change my mind. :wink: I should have never accepted this amp. No more cheap PCB amps! I worked on one of these that had burned all 4 of the output tube cathode resistors and the PCB. What a pain in the ass... The stock bias supply voltage is -28vdc using a c...

Marcus,

Cool stuff - thanks for sharing!

Can you hear a difference between the 2 clips?

Thanks!
