I finally finished this amp . Thank you for the work you did on this amp Rootz, this truly is an amazing sounding amp!!!
This has become my favorite amp by far! I think everyone should build this amp!
This amp is like having all the best qualities of the JM amp and the Overdrive Special all in one amp!
I made a slight change in my build, I added an extra preamp tube ( 6 preamp tubes instead of 5 ) this way I could use an 12AT7 to drive the reverb tank and another 12AX7 for recovery.
I was worried that this amp would not have enough reverb since the reverb comes after the Master volume but wow the reverb was amazing!!!
The reverb in this amp gets very intense and gets into surf territory !!
Here are the changes I made:
I used an extra preamp tube for the reverb (12AT7)
I used the JM classic tone stack with 100K slope resistor and 0.1uf bass cap, 0.05 uf mid cap and 0.001 uf treble cap.
I used Low Plate on V1 and High Plate on V2 for the overdrive channel.
I used the 1mg pot for Reverb Send and 1mg pot for the Level control. I believe you did this too rootz.
I built the amp to run 4 x 6V6 tubes and 410v on the plates.
I used a 33uf on v1 and a 33uf on v2 everything else was 22uf except first cap that was 47uf. There are 7 different B+ stages in total.
