Re: Cornford RK100 Richie Kotzen Schematic
Hi, it's my first post here. Thanks to the posts here, After some struggles I almost finished RK100 clone. It's the first time amp building for me. I added several switches and you can see ugly wirings, haha... I have a real mk50hII, and this clone also sounds very good. It was so fun. I'm thinking...

Re: Channel switcher PCB
Interesting project. Can individual switches be turned off, like pedal? So you have radio button option between 4 switches and option to bypass all?

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
Thanks Mark, the amp has quite a lot of bass. I guess that is normal. Cab is 212 Wgs veteran 30s, open back.
Also I will probably leave reverb tank outside, because it gets noisey when I put in in head cab.

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
It definately is changing sound, but it can be compensated. Here is clip made with mobile, so you can hear how it sounds..

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
I would go back over the layout/schematic and make sure you have everything wired correctly. You should have nice chimey vox tone with subtle reverb. I usually always play with bright switch on if you have one otherwise it's usually wired to the volume pot by 100pf mica cap. The 500pf treble cap ne...

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
I have installed reverb in my rocket build, is it me or reverb circuit is changing tone of the amp a lot? The amp is missing high freq and I tried to disconnect 500pF from pin2 of the treboe pot and amp is more bright like it should be, is that normal?

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
I have notice labeling is reversed. So just do it like on the layout and use B+5.M Fowler wrote:On Rj's layout above it should be relabeled
B+3 should be B+5
B+5 should be B+3
B+5 feeds the V1 tube it is the last filter cap in the dropping string.
Thanks

Re: Friedman BE50 based build
I think It is almoust same as everything before he did. Instead clean channel just make plexi channel and that is it. Rest is well known.. So called master volume (fx loop return pot) is now on the front panel, responce is switch instead pot (probably cameron values).. Or you can start with SB50 and...

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
Thanks for info. My build has similar layout and I will try to put tank in the same place.
How important is position of the reverb driver?

Re: Rockster Reverb combo project
Thanks Mark for the help, really appreciate it. I already like the amps "natural reverb", but I want that spring to have as addition.
Also dwell control, yes or no? And mounting reverb on up side of the head, since it is not combo?
Cheers

Re: Sound differences Rocket vs Z Wreck??
I did notice change in the top end, like the amp is sparkling less with z wreck specs. Power supply filtering is parallel at the moment, but again all sound tests were done on low volume I will see if there is change when amp is "cranked".

Re: Sound differences Rocket vs Z Wreck??
I was thinking about reverb driver type and tank type.. Is it ok to just use generic staff, like 3.5w transformer and also reverb types do they effect rest of circuit, so I have to be aware about choices I make with reverb types?
