The Amp Garage

trafos and choke removed

update for this year... i bought some vintage Carlsbro amp mostly for Drake transformers.. i wanted to keep it but was damaged in the post.. amp sounded very good from the start! But failed in half hour due to tube damage .. so .. there was no more questions

Take it for granted that he has any Marshall value and make a list of others that you want. :P you are so lazy BUILD AN AMP yes of course :P today im looking at 2 pcs of accumulated Carslbro EL34's to steal Drake iron from them, what to do? :mrgreen: + another Vibroverb/Soldano SLO hybrid 2 channel...

yes tube amps are the best at the end and will remain like that

great, is somewhere a list of values?

ofcourse but kemper has advantage in consistent recording, which is extremely difficult with any amp and speakers..
kemper has some settings of pick sensitivity, this when setup correctly is ok

I don't think there are any issues with lead dress. Its a clean build with good seperation from grid/power/etc. There is simply too much gain, and possibly an OT that can't handle it as well. i didnt see anything, you are mentioned not ok sound on high volume, falling apart is not good sign.. we ca...

try both 4-8 and see what you like more..

there is a good way to test the amp how good is , lift tone controls up from the gnd, and see how good amp behaves in higher gain, must be excelent..otherwise there are problems in the amp stages (lead dress probably)

try 12ay7 for the first tube? The 1st gain stage is operating as it should. I am trying to figure out where in the circuit the extra gain is coming from, and learn why and how to tame it. I am building this to perform like a simplified deluxe reverb, which i think is an amazing amp, and I am buildi...

try 12ay7 for the first tube?

I don't understand what you mean, maybe because we're both not native English speakers. Do you mean the cathode resistor and bypass cap should go to the g2 filter cap? yes Or do you mean they should go to B+ (output anodes) filter cap? That is what the new PCB does. That is what Fender did back in ...

on first sight i see that you have listen my suggestions which is ok.. i have drawn on top in detail what you neeed to do.. but, cathode cap and resistor are NOT going to first filter cap.. they are going to the second (g2 supply)..so all cathode elements need to be shifted to the left part of the p...

Speaker is v30? Change the speaker?
Some other guitar problem?
