Show us your amps!!!

It is basically the same rough pre- as the other two model T copies, but with more of an SVT power section that uses a more standard LTP PI instead of that weirdness Ampeg came up with... oh yeah, ...

Show us your amps!!!

I'm going to try to convince our drummer to let us start using this from now on, mostly just for the visual intimidation factor:70's DR103 copy // 70's Sunn Model T based 140W head // Avatar 4x1270's DR 103 copy // 70's Sunn Model T based 140W head // Generic Marshall Slant66 Bassman // 71 Ampeg V4 ...

yeah, the tolex glue has the consistency of elmers, and the last time I tried it I gave up after making a complete fucking mess out of my garage and clothes. Its only forseeable pro would be workability (and I guess the fact that it is non solvent-based and will not affect the tolex). the cons would...

Scott-Damn you for reminding me how much better it sounded few minutes that it was working in pentode mode. Now I feel compelled to dig some more!!!the switch was doing exactly that, a DPDT that looks like a pair of these:--- UL tap from OT--- screen resistor (1.5k 5W)--- node directly after chokesp...

yeah. it fucked up again. seems that the amp functions fine on the bench, but plug a guitar into it and then plug it into a cab and it shits itself rather quickly -resistor flash and then blown fuse- maybe it objects to my playing.It seems to work with the presence control at 0, then shits the bed w...

Been toying with the 100W amp (above) primarily in the output and NFB areas. The OT I had was an ultralinear Hammond (1600 series.) Being that it is my first build, I decided to hook it up as described on the box, in UL mode. Worked great, sounded great. Being that I am never satisfied with somethin...

I replaced the faulty resistors and tube and it seems to hold up to all sorts of sine waves very well taking the screen voltage from the PS. (also seems to clip on a scope a bit differently than it did in the UL config) I took out the switch, as I am leaning towards the non UL sound anyhow. I was sw...

Ben.its pretty simple. try fliptops. They are a bit pricey, but they should have a near exact can replacement for almost any ampeg, and many other hard to find ampeg oddballs as well.here is a link to their cap-kit page.[url]http://www.fliptops.net/catalog/index.p ... =2a&page=2[/url]it is retarded ...
