Glen, that's some great info right there, thanks for writing that up. I had my clone on the block and had requests for clips. They came out less than stellar due to my inexperience. I'll see if I can learn something from you here
Still digging your cd btw.
You guys that don't have one.. Buy It!

Re: where can i buy an express faceplate?
I bought my faceplate wood at Rockler (Bloodwood... muahahahaa :roll: ) Actually, I bought two faceplates at Rockler. The first I drilled the holes, then countersunk them so my Alpha pots would fit. Then, after all that fun, I scrapped that and bought PEC pots. Too bad, since that first piece of woo...

Re: First clip of my Express build
Sounds good Normster. Careful when you crank 'er. My ears are still bleeding due to the 10 minutes I had mine cranked last Sunday (in my little ~12'x14' room). What??!

Re: anybody have any soundclips of their trainwreck replica?
Nice Jackie! I got a kick out of the "Om" floating around
Here's a snip of a clip I posted a while back. I was hoping to get s'more clips this past weekend but wasn't able to.

Re: External Bias Pot and Test Points
I just kept the wires close to the chassis, and tried to stay away from everything else. I do have some noise in the amp, but after poking around the wires added for the bias pot/probe jacks I don't think they're the cause. Here's a pic of how I ran 'em: [img:1024:768]http://www.chassi-swing.com/amp...

Re: External Bias Pot and Test Points
I'm actually thinking of pulling them out. Not that I think it makes much difference, or is causing any issues with the amp, but I'm finding the amp is pretty much set and leave alone. I put -30 on pin 5 and I haven't really had to touch it with either 6v6s or 34s.

Re: Do you gig?
Sounds great Jackie.
I wish I was able to get up to NH to see AM at Marks. Oh well, next time.
And no, I don't gig. I jam on occasion with a few guys, we're getting really good at belting out 8675309 and 2 Tickets to Paradise . Unfortunately my clone would be too loud in this setting.

Re: Gain reduction ideas?
Legin, did you notice a dramatic difference in volume with the split load? I tried this a while back when Paul first suggested it but think I might have done it incorrectly (yeah, I can screw up something simple like that ;) ) since I didn't really notice much difference if any with the output level...

Re: treble and bass pot values in express clones
I used 1M for Bass and Treble, 25k for Mid, 5k for Presence, and 1M for vol. Now about those 612's. Got any left?

Re: Another April fools Express
Thanks guys. I'm definitely liking 34s in it though. Another clip with 34s through my homemade 4x12 with brand-y new greenbacks:
