Thanks for the support guys. Been in the position for a few weeks now and feel like this is meant to be. I do miss making pickups though and hope that I can fit some batches into my schedule when I can get thing under me correct and on autopilot

Please elaborate? Big box pickup makers can’t even replicate the same tones from earlier versions of the same pickup. The wind is the biggest factor. The turns per layer, the pattern and the tension all play a significant role in how the pickup reacts. Anyone says they’d recreated a pickup or...

Big fan of Faber

I do this on a push pull, essentially shorting the resistor the less scooped with the resistor is series

Navigators do it for me

Yes. Both split

It’s still got the stock 4700pf bright cap on volume 2. Some people like it for the cut, some don’t. Once I get more parts in I’ll drop it down to 2200pf. I miss living down the road from Mouser electronics.

This damn amp has attitude. This is after fixing the NFB and adding the Cameron spec punch control

I don’t disagree with any of that. I was more so implying that the 4k7 more often referenced as the shunt resistor while the long tail resistor is the 10k in a Marshall. I will take a scratchy 5k with no shunt 10 times out of 10 for the even taper.

I don’t think so. The long tail is the 10k resistor. The 4k7 was added in the design later since before it was just a 5k pot that scratched when turning because of DC on the pot. Using a 4.7k resistor in parallel with the 25k accomplishes both shunting the DC to ground since is a much lower...

Similar to stated 470pf across the lugs with 2200pf and 39k in series. 8 ohm tap and 47k NFB. The PI was good, just the 4k7 omission. I don’t like the taper of the shunted 25k so it will get swapped to a 5k

Since modding this amp, I felt that the volume was a bit lower and a little lower gain than other Jose mods that I’ve done, but I don’t have the reverse audio taper pots in hand yet and I attributed the gain to out of spec zeners Well, today I got parts to put in the punch/depth control. 2...

for $700, this was a no brainer

This was the same way. It’s all about choosing the right bypass caps at each stages, Your basically allowing through more mods and high than you are bass. Then the Jose master adds a bunch of saturation and tames some high end

My grinch pajamas were in the laundry i fortunate that I have farm land to my right, a daycare to my front. An American family to my left and no one in back. Plus the outer walls are reinforced concrete. The actually build homes here to withstand typhoons

That amp deserves some truck nuts

Still waiting on some more parts. Still stock NFB

In my 7 XTC’s, I never once thought to myself that the red channel needed more gain. My post 2004, was my shortest owned

Yours is missing the apostrophe. :D
