Re: Ripper build

Hi rootz, Excellent construction and great technique. A few months ago, I read an article on Ampgarage about the #178 amplifier, which reawakened my passion for building amplifiers. I had reached a critical point in my passion, but that article inspired me to learn more, to search for a new sound, a...

Re: A Collection of #124 Information (Schematics, Layout, etc.)

Good morning Martin,

Thanks for your reply. I'm (attempting) to build the 1984 Low Plate #124 original 1984 (rel.) 1.7 version of the schematic and was comparing it with your layout of the 1984 "OVERDRIVE SPECIAL #0124" version in its original form, A Low Plate Classic MFG 1984.

Thanks

Franco

Re: A Collection of #124 Information (Schematics, Layout, etc.)

Hi everyone, sorry to bother you sometimes. I'd like to ask for clarification or suggestions. I'm building a #124 Low Plate Classic following the Manning & Albany 1984 layout, and I've noticed some discrepancies with the wiring diagram I found on TAG. I don't know the author, but the label says: #12...

Re: Who is just starting a ODS build?

hi churchman,

I built a #102 which is a great sounding amplifier, I certainly don't have Martin Manning's knowledge on the subject but I can share a little experience :D

Re: Low-plate Skyline

hi everyone, can someone please explain to me what is the difference between Low-Plate and High-Plate, Classic and Skyline? until now I thought that Low-Plate meant 100K resistors on the Plates of V1 and V2 (like in this amplifier) ​​while for High-Plate the same resistors were 220K and 150K. I woul...

Re: Blues Deluxe to ODS build

Hi Luigi, I wanted to build a clone of the #102 Dumble Skyline High Plate as per Tony Albany's scheme and so I bought the chassis and the boards from I don't remember who but a good friend of Ampgarage. Once I finished building the problems started, the sound was nice but after a while it started to...

Re: Blues Deluxe to ODS build

Hi all, does anyone know what happened to Luigi Retro Custom? I wrote to him with the form found on his site but he didn't answer me. I need a board to build a power supply for the construction of a #102 not "precision supply" but the previous type and other boards for the same project. I could buil...

Re: AN Wonderland/JM 100w layout

Hi to all, I use an EVM 12-L, or a Celestion G12-65 and two Celestion Blue Alnicos sometimes and only for testing and at low volume. I think the Celestion Gold for an amp with 2 6L6s is fine. I don't particularly like neodymium speakers. I prefer the Celestion G12-65 and I find that with the EVM 12-...

Re: Tonex useful captures

Hi Reeltarded, what do you mean by "CONTROLLING THEIR STUPID DEVICE", I bought TONEX PEDAL because the sounds of the amplifiers were very believable (I build amplifiers as a hobby) and it had a very acceptable price. These considerations make it an excellent candidate for its use in the rehearsal ro...

Re: Tonex useful captures

Hi Reeltarded, Thank you for the very quick reply. I play guitar (mainly) and bass, I could say in an amateur way, even though I have played several times in dance halls or pubs. I came to TAG because I build amplifiers, some Fender clones, Trainwreck, Hiwatt, Matchless, and especially Dumble, obvio...

Re: Tonex useful captures

Dear guys, I bought a TONEX Pedal six months ago believing it to be the best both for price and performance. After years (many) of analog I would like to get a culture of digital but for me, despite the efforts, it is still an unreachable world. First of all thank you, because you are among the very...
