Isn't NTE the "artist formerly known as Philips ECG"? And before that, Sylvania ECG?
Even in the '70s the Sylvania flame proof resistors came from multiple suppliers. We used to look for the CGW (Corning Glass Works) ones.

Re: Where best to post about diff between Fender and Dumble?
Listening is a developed skill . Some people are operating at a different level. For example, watch Eric Johnson spend an hour biasing his Marshall, playing the same lick over and over whilst making minute turns on a trimpot, he's hearing something in the sustain, touch and texture that us mere mor...

Re: High-plate Skyline build
That looks just like the amp Randy California had.
Also, what gauge aluminum is the bottom plate?

Is it normal to see twist-lok capacitors in amps built this late?

Re: Dumble modified Fender Vibrolux Reverb
Based on the co-ax wire used, and the discoloration of the heat shrink, I'm guessing this amp was done a long time ago, like maybe in the mid-late 1970s?
So this is three Dumble amps that Dennis Herring has sold off now.

Does that Tandy coax use a solid copper center conductor, or is it "copperweld"?

Re: OD/gain pedal for ODS clone?
A Blues Breaker clone type pedal seems to work well with a variety of amps. Analogman King of Tone and Prince of Tone are good examples of the Blues Breaker type circuit, or Wampler Pantheon.

Re: modifying Fender Bandmaster - Ultra phonix mod
Ya never see much speculation about what's under the doghouse in a Dumble modified Fender. But dontcha suppose, based on what he did on the smaller amps that we have seen, that he probably raised the value of the filter caps?

Re: modifying Fender Bandmaster - Ultra phonix mod
I think just 'merging' the threads isn't a norm unless both OP's of both threads are okay with that. I can unstick either... it's just which one summarizes the Ultra phonix mods better? That's why I said "merged somehow," to capture the contributions from both in one place. I mean I could just crea...
