    New Cab Day

    I really love my traditional cabs man, I did own an oversize and to me it was more beamy and harsh to my ears.

    Transformers for SLO clones? (Hammond Preferably)

    The other thing to consider is your resale value of the amp after completed if you don't like it and the thing to remember it is just a clone. I would talk to Dave Friedman about getting that amp properly grounded.

    Transformers for SLO clones? (Hammond Preferably)

    I would say that would be hard to know if you don't have a schematic or like a layout from Nik because he likes to do things that really aren't like the original design and be more of a clone, and this will help you pick the correct votlage taps and current rating for each tap that is going to...

    Creed 2024 Gear Rundown

    Yeah I mean the MT100 while it kind of sounds like a cross of a Uber and a rectifier on the lead channel I can tell you the circuit is so far away from either of those amps.

    Creed 2024 Gear Rundown

    I believe he says he is using them in unison for all three channels of the amp as well as the different synergy modules. JP still using his signature amp.

    Creed 2024 Gear Rundown

    Was wondering how long it would take him to run 2 different amps at the same time again, it sounds like he is doing that for all 3 sounds, clean, overdrive and distortion. Synergy and the MT100. Will see how long that lasts.

    Marshall Powertube Question

    Typically, Marshall would use like a 82k bias splitting resistors vs 220k for el-34's and the negative feedback wire would have been moved to a different speaker tap as well as a different bias dropping resistor to give you more range on the bias pot. If you opened it up and took a picture a...

    What's that one amp you bought repeatedly trying to love it, but couldn't?

    Bought more than my fair share of 2 and 3 channel rectifiers and could not figure out how to get them to work for me. Wanted to in the worst way as a lot of my favorite guitarist/bands were using them. I wasn't into boosting many years ago, I think that would have helped a lot for the low end...

    Is a OT upgrade worth it. ?

    From an electrical engineering standpoint how is this possible or explained? I'm not doubting this happens or being a dick just honestly curious why and how this happens.

    Is a OT upgrade worth it. ?

    I had done the MM “upgrade” to a Marshall DSL100 JCM2000. It definitely was not an upgrade in my opinion, made it sound a lot cleaner and gave the amp this best way I can describe it is a sliver wire type tone. It was probably more the spec of the OT that I was hearing… I later put a Heyboer...

    Pre amp voltages should not be overlooked.

    Hey guys, Lately I’ve done a lot of experimenting with pre amp voltages especially in a marshall jose type circuit. I found in this type of circuit I like runing the voltage higher around 390v at the PI node and 155v in V1a after the 330k resistor. When I went down to around 330v I found the...

    Soldano SLO loop mod hires gut shot

    Look up the soldano decatone schematic and you will find the tube loop and how to implement it in your slo.

    JSX Mods

    I would look at amps like the peavey ultra plus 120, triple xxx for inspiration and pull the best from each channel of those amps. The JSX is just slightly different then those amps. I don’t think for what the amp would ever be worth it and for very little to be gained tonewise by putting MM...

    KT88 Tubes, What is your favorite and why

    The TAD's that were in my MT100 also red plated. PRS sent me a new set of Apex matched JJ 6l6's under warranty which honestly have been going strong and sound great. For KT88's the only thing I'll say is stay away from the KT88 from JJ, I tried them in my Mesa Strat 500 and they sounded...

    Fs/t Mesa JP-2C, sold

    Yes, they had the same tubes and same color power tube. I bought a 2nd JP2C because of the buzz around the "upgraded" transformers and having liked my original so much and the used market at the time, I felt like I had nothing to lose. I have an amp switcher and honestly went back in forth for...
