Bonamassa 50W ODS gut shot

Re: Bonamassa 50W ODS gut shot
#102 has (or had ) those Black F&T's I've also used the Gold Nich's Radials in a few amps floating over the C.bypass resistors 4.7uF and thought the bass response and clarity on those audios was rather nice (better than the new Axl Sprague's). If I am not mistaken the MOV normally goes across the STBY switch. I suppose you could mount it right on the P.S board going too and from the switch and achieve the same results. BTW. Joes Dad was a vintage guitar amp dealer so Joe knows a lot about vintage gear and grew up in that world. Buy a rare piece give it a little star value enjoy it then sell it for a good tax free profit. Not bad as long as you know what you are doing and the market holds up

As far as the amp goes, it's nice to see it's been serviced/maintained. He's posted a few amps "just back from my tech" that had 40 year old IC filters in it...some people fear messing with the mojo, but that's just stilly.
@talbany, the Nichicon Black Gate's are absolutely f*cking amazing as cathode bypass caps. Nothing I've tried comes close, even bypassing with mica, ceramic, mylar etc....sad they don't make them anymore.....

Yes Andy I remember you mentioning that a while ago about the Black Gates. Have been keeping an eye out but so far no luck on the correct values..Thanks for the reminder@talbany, the Nichicon Black Gate's are absolutely f*cking amazing as cathode bypass caps. Nothing I've tried comes close, even bypassing with mica, ceramic, mylar etc....sad they don't make them anymore.....

Makes sense in regards to the trimmer of the presence! I had never seen those yellow tubular caps, any idea of what they might be?Charlie Wilson wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 12:07 amHmmm, what is so trashed about the amp? F&T caps, everybody uses them, radial bypass, they work just the same as axial. The trimmer next to the PI cap is stock and probably 500 ohm. They probably just turned it all the way down and added a pot on the front(to replace the accent switch). I also believe the yellow tubular in the PI is stock, Dumble used those. Not crazy about the added goop, most Low Plate Classics I have seen were not gooped.Reeltarded wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 2:57 pm uhh the amp is the most trashed dumble i have ever seen..

Re: Bonamassa 50W ODS gut shot
More than likely rebrands the originals were made in Japan.. I have seen a few NOS floating around but never the right values I personally do not care if they are Axials or radials?

Re: Bonamassa 50W ODS gut shot
Does anyone know what sort of transformers Dumble would typically use in his 50W ODS builds? Any idea what might be in this amp?
