Grounding the green/white junction as shown in the diagram with the push/pull pots will leave the screw coil active. Same for both neck and bridge pickups.

Tried a lot of fuzz over the years. This is what has hung around. The 69 = fuzz face The Arcane = Tone Bender The Thorpy = Triangle Muff The Boss Waza = ? but I like how it sounds

Oh man, whats that Arcane Analog pedal? I got him to make me an mk1 Tone bender, with all nos parts and a bias pot on top along with the vol and fuzz controls. Its the best fuzz I've ever heard. Had it for forever. And cool feature: the bias pot turned all the way counter clockwise has a switch...

Fuk me, I feel like I just got Rick rolled. This thread is making me 🤮

Oh, man! This is cool af! Huge CoC / Down / Pepper fan. Cool story: Around 2008 -2009 CoC was on tour with Motorhead up here in Canada. Saturday was Winnipeg, and Monday they were in Toronto. So totally under the radar, the CoC guys decide to stop in London Ontario on Sunday night and do a show...

Lol! Alright then, looks like I'm headed in the right direction. Thanks (y)

Only issue I've ever heard of ( and have seen and repaired ) is guys sticking El34's in the OG EVH 6l6 100watter, and melting the traces around the fuse holders for the heater circuit. That is not the amps fault. The EVH line is solid. Don't do anything dumb, and you shouldn't have any issues.

Thanks. I have an older voodoo lab pedal power x4, and was looking at buying the appropriate cable, but I think I'm going to upgrade to a Cioks DC7 supply, as I could also use a 15v center positive connection, and the Cioks will do pretty much anything, and comes with all the cables.

Yeah, that sounds great! I've got a brand new one sitting here in a box, but I don't have anything to power it with. Pedal does not ship with a power supply. None of my power supplies will do 18v / 250ma without a voltage doubling cable, which i don't seem to have on hand. I need to get on...

Ouch! Wishing you a speedy recovery man!

Interesting, I hadn't heard about this. I had an idea to build myself a single ended JCM800 style amp with a 6v6 for low volume home use, but I just checked my local big box retailer, and I can't buy the parts for that build anywhere close to what these go for new. I'm going to try to demo one...

:shocked::shocked::shocked: That last one with the black quilt top! ....and that fret board.... :love: Does that have a carved top too? Wow!

I have one from very early in the first run in 2015. Really ready good sounding amp, and has hung around here a long time, but there are some things to consider. The early ones had an issue with the presence pot that Marshall refused to even acknowledge. The pots failed at an alarming rate...

This^^^^ I realize the OP has said he's going to re-do the wiring, but I just wanted to chime in for any one who's on the fence about them Marshall cab PCB's. Get those fukking things out of there ASAP. When they fail, and they will, it's bad news for your power tubes, and likely your output...

Yeah, with the load box, attenuator and IR tech we have these days, we have lots of ways to deal with the volume issue. So it does come down to tone, and I'm just trying to build a real good representation of that classic 800 circuit. You guys are all just kinda confirming what I thought would...

LOL :LOL: I'm going to try to build me some awesome amps one at a time. Looks like the JCM800 clone is gonna be a 100w. Thanks guys! :thumbsup:

Thanks for the info! Never heard of that amp. I'll check it out.

Ok, cool! Thanks for the reply. This is the kind of feedback I'm looking for (y)

I'd like to build myself a JCM800 clone. I have 2 unused ClassicTone " Marshall style" transformer sets: 50 & 100 watt laydown PT's, 50 &100w OPT's & 3H choke. The amp will be built in a 100w Metro chassis with double can caps for the plates and screens. I'm going to fab up my own turret...

Yeah, I dig the anniversary/greenback combo as well. I have a Wizard 4x12 with 2 x EVH greenbacks up top and 2x anniversary H30's on the bottom, and it sounds fantastic. When I got the cab, it was loaded with the 2 x Annie's, and 2x Heritage G12H30's, and it was way too much high end. If...
