The Amp Garage

I did some measuring here's what I get. 6v6 plates = 448V PI = 290v V2a = 194v V2b = 200v V1a = 193v V1b = 197v PT = Hammond 290BX 330-0-330 138mA, 6.3v 3A, 5v 3A Could 138mA be to light for this cct? The PT does not get hot at all. When I run it clean and cranked there's no problem. This only happe...

I built a ODS similar to a 102 but I used Hammond Deluxe Reverb output and power transformers. I used the 5v winding for relay and indicator light. There is around 450 on the 6v6 plates and I am using JJ's. The other tubes voltages are a little higher then normal but the amp sound great. It is extre...

Is there schematic to go with this layout?

Looks like you are going threw the first 25ohm resistor. It should be parallel to the signal not series. Check your layout again...

I've been using, in a MessaBoogie Halfback 412, 2x G12-65 and 2x Red White and Blues. Mounted vertically. I'm lovin' it!

thank you very much

...is it wrong that I got aroused looking at those pic's?

-1 on the MOD Jensen. Just my opinion...one of the worst speakers I ever heard....real harsh, very bright. I tried it in a couple old Champs...sold it for $20 a month ago.

....I lift the clean volume with a relay when I switch to OD.

Maybe something like this? Both relays switched simultaneously allow a strong signal to enter the OD channel?

With respect, 10thtx

exactly like this!!

would default to turning the preamp volume (V1A, if you would) all the way up Gil Good idea you could alter the ground on the input pot.. Ground it in clean mode and lift it (whatever value sounds good in OD) put it on a relay that activates when you go to OD. :D Tony This what I have been doing......

the bass pot is 500k. I removed the cap across the bass pot and there was no change. I put a temporary switch in there to switch between cap and no cap but could not hear any difference. The amp is a two 6L6 amp and the tone stack is: Bass: 500k/.1uF, Mid is 100K/.047uF, treble is: 250K/330pF. Like ...

I have a high plate non-hrm. It lacks bass. I have been playing with it for a while now and can't get any bottom end. I have increased the clean channel bi-pass cap's from 5uF to 25uF and there is no difference. I bi-passed the tone stack but nothing o bass is added just volume. What could the probl...

here is my Ammo box....it has a few stickers on it....I added a relay to switch between the two knobs(yellow chicken head and silver knob)...they are in parallel...this way I can set up a 'boost' and still have great tone. The 1/4" jack on the front is for a foot switch.

i will try to get a couple picks up soon. I also added a relay so I can switch between two different levels....kinda like a boost box. I did not drill vent holes, it stays cool as is.

great start...how 'bout adding an owner history?

I use an old Ammo box.....cheap and cool
