Re: 3rd Gen ODS by FictitiousFuzz
Great build! Really interesting to see the whole process from design/drawings to the finished amp. Really well done

Re: 2nd Gen Build
Classic, seasoned iron, brown caps, Pihers - should sound great! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about the sound. Great build Dan

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
All connected up as listed a couple of posts ago. Assuming I got it right - that’s the relays done. I preset the pot on the PAB to 100k to start with. Not much left before it’s time to hang some transformers on this thing. Made all but one co-ax cable (probably do it tomorrow). My previous 2 builds ...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Ahhhh… ok; now it makes sense, thanks Martin. I’ve compared the schematic, layout, and board plans exhaustively - even drawing out the three and comparing. I was wondering if the difference had to do with the relay power. It seemed like the only answer - but again my lack of knowledge prevented me f...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Ok, got some time today to hopefully wrap up the relay wiring. Based on my previous questions about the OD relay and Martin’s super helpful explanation along with looking at the schematic and layout - I think the relay wiring is as follows: COM1 - Loop send tip & return switch (orange and blue on th...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Ha! Great minds Glenn!
Seemed like a simple solution. Makes life easier.

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Got up this morning feeling like I wanted to do something with this build that I actually understand, so I spent the morning making the cabinet. A little detail that I started putting in my cabs about a year ago are 4” long 1/4x1/4” “sliders” for the chassis. This way I can slide the chassis in to w...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Thanks Martin, This build is proving a little more challenging than I expected just because of the different references, but I’ll get it. Apologies for creating my own miscommunication with the 47pf - definitely my goof up, lol. I read the mid cap as a 39pf 1kv and the V1b cap as a 50pf 1kv. Guess I...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Thanks Martin! I don’t think I would have made the correlation regarding the section outputs without some help. I’m able to keep the layout, board plans, and schematic in perspective most of the time; but I do get turned around here and there. My ability to translate the schematic doesn’t seem to be...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Also looking ahead to the relay wiring; just wanted to ask a couple of clarification-type questions regarding the “OD Relay Separate Masters HRM, Bluesmaster” board plans, especially since the connections are a little different than the layout: Cl = “clean” i.e. Cl Vol Wiper is the volume pot next t...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Ok, good - thanks Martin! The front is my preference also - mainly because I didn’t grind the finish off under the terminal strip at V1, and the terminal strip screw eyes just don’t look as beefy as a real grounding lug (I used mini strips because I already had them). I have plenty of room by the ja...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Today’s trivial question: Been meaning to ask about the shielded cable from the input jack to V1. In this amp, I see that HAD grounded it at the terminal strip. Is there any technical reason he chose that location vs. the lugs up by the jack? Does it make any difference - ground is ground, right (ex...

Re: The Much Anticipated (?) Bluesmaster Build Thread
Understood, thanks Martin. That’s what I was thinking - but wanted to be certain just in case.
