The Amp Garage

Funny how the 50 watt EL34 combo is $5k https://sono-tone.com/product/smart-belle-p51/

I built my Tweedle-Dee Deluxe's with 4 inputs. And the other D Deluxe's I'm aware of have 4 inputs. They jumper just fine.

No disrespect to the SSS guy's I spent close to 4 years building prototypes They sound good but not great. When I built the 150 watt amps I could have bought a Marshall Major that's what my builds sounded like. I will be 60 years old next month I don't like heavy weight amps now. I would like to tha...

Just finished used a old cabinet with a Fane 12L I love this new amp. It makes my SSS amps sound like the oats that have been run through the horse.

Changed V-1 to a mid plate 135k/2k2 x2. V-1 voltages 205/205 V-2 voltages 205/205 I can't ask for any closer voltages than that.
Got rid of the darkness. Now replace the 100pf silver mica with a 500pf silver mica on the bright switch.

GE 12AX7A or 7025 gray plate for V-1 and V-2 as for the 6L6GC I have been using Telefunken 68 quads no problem's so far they sound OK they are made by JJ for repairs. As for my personal builds NOS all the way. I just finished #51 build I have more amps than I will ever play stupid ??? I did learn a ...

I had to try the Pihers On V-1. I may change to 135k 2k2 135k 2k2 MF7C Mepco Electra 1% Just to balance things out just a little dark on V-1 with the FET input it's perfect The other disappointment is the Marstran 1202-118 PT B+1 421 volts under load played with the dropping string and V-2 207v/207v...

It's finished everything is adjusted. Had to play with the dropping string a little. It sings the clean channel and the overdrive channel watch out.
I'm happy.

Precision power supply is all I use now. I started out with the Axial. Before Jason had board sets we built all our boards from scratch.

Just to be clear I used the Heyboer HTS-10359 PT on my #183 build and a Dagnall C1998 OPT from 1968 What I did use a NOS Magic Parts Twin set on was my #102 build it started off with a 1971 Fender Twin set it was 90% when I switched to the Magic parts set it turned my #102 amp into a harmonic genera...

Tony, You are correct the Magic Parts are not the same now. The original MP were Thorarsen Meissner EIA code #238
As far as Coax I'm using RG-188 Looks exact but who knows for sure.

Steve.

Cool Tony, Hope all is well. Looks like Magic Parts EIA code #238 Transformers.

I'm not sure how to explain this at home in my studio or living room I don't use a Dumbelator I love playing loud that said' The venues our band plays range from 200 people to 5,000 people it's the sound man as an example my favorite ODS type amp volume 2 master volume 2 50' away puts out 140 DB Kei...

Times have changed the effects loop with the Dumbelator is a matched set if nothing else it controls the volume of the amp. Most of the time I use a AC-15 type amp EF-86 volume with a 7 position rotary treble switch and on stage get bitched out if my volume is past 2 to loud. If I want to play any o...

Got my bias voltage adjusted 28 to 44 VDC range it's going slow. Next adjust the FET then wire the controls and so on.
