Re: Has Anyone Built a Tone King Imperial?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpF88ondW4Y Here is one you tube that demonstrates the mid bite control than any others I have seen. Bing Videos I am a sucker for good amp demos.

Re: LAR/MAR PPIMV bypass pop noise?
i recently wired up my 6V6 SE amp with the Imperial preamp as in the attached schematic. It sounds great, My amp has a master volume and I do not play loud enough for power amp overdrive to be a factor, unlike the real Imperial where power amp overdrive is a big part of the sound. But I like it for ...

Re: New Project
For my 6V6 SE power amp I followed the AX84 5 watt building block but with 302 volts on the plate due to a different PT and 5Y3 rectifier. Most say a tube rectifier is pointless with SE but I wanted the option to try it with different voltages. The AX84 schematic includes a ability to tweak cathode ...

Re: New Project
Years ago Mat in Finland posted a SE ODS with no "phase inverter." By all accounts it sounded great https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10913&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=hrm&start=0 There have been a number of others since then, search the forum on "mini hrm". In my own (limited) expe...

Cool. Will be watching with interest as I cycle through preamps in my ever-evolving SE platform.

Re: Magnatone build
Not to go off topic, but that tone control looks similar to the Tone King Imperial "Mid-Bite" control. Different values, but same arrangement.Smokebreak3 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2024 11:43 pm Yea that tone control is neat, it acts as a mixture of cathode bypass on one side, and high frequency dump on the other, or a mix.

Sounds great. How do you access the pay per view? Can you stream it on the web or do you need cable TV?

Re: The Constellation - time for a reset
... it looks like you have figured out you need to fit another piece of wood in the cavity left by the old bridge. A shame in a way, your top has developed a beautiful patina over the years and matching it with a new piece would take quite a bit of experimentation with wood stains, and even then, t...

Re: The Constellation - time for a reset
Thanks. I found your earlier thread about your Constellation https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=34113&p=422428&hilit=constellation#p422428 Very nicely done. My interest in the Hannes is mainly the individual string height adjustability needed with a compound radius fingerboard. I see th...
