is that power tranny 600volt on each side? or is it 300 0 300, if this is the case you can build a fender champ type amp or maybe even a 5e3-(a little low) I used a 300 0 300 on a lightning build (el84's) a bit on the hotside, but i used a few zeners to keep the B+ to a manageable level......lots of...

Hey DOC:
yeah I've seen that wood grained boards before a few times they look so cool

that guy is just showing off having the board in plexi glass... and camo...what an amp!

Hi blackdog: Its hard to tell you whats wrong with not much info: I have wired tone benders this way and it works with the LED. Pictures would help. Do you have meter you can use to see if you have voltage on the transistors? This link will sow you pictures how a tone bender is wired. https://www.fr...

Hey Sinner. I forgot to ask, you said built the JTM45 again...did you sell it? do you have pics?

Hi Sinner: Those caps look nice. I found a link for a JTM45 turretboard, is this what you are using? similar? http://www.tubesandmore.com/products/terminal_boards_strips?sort=recommended&page=2 (3rd board down) oh wait you said tagboard. Are these caps expensive? I bought cheap orange drop capac...

Hi: it looks like the Input jack from your drawing is a "mono" jack. it should be a "stereo" jack. this circuit is positive ground. You should really omit the switching until you prove if your circuit has signal. for using a 3DPDT when you asking for help you should post in the &...

Ha Ha ....i thought it weird that Simon would answer like that, until Dirk Corrected us, he even put your age as 44 and you had no thanks...good one Dirk

A Happy new year to you Sinner. I was wondering what the heck you were talking about? But i figured that people down loaded your great stuff, and your "thank meter never went up" I feel you and some others go unappreciated some times, although i must have built 6 or maybe 8 of your layouts...

Hi, thanks for the replies. I don't know why i said I tried a 250k pot? i meant i tried a 1meg pot and it still didn't do the trick. Thanks for the advice Vot and Beedotman I'm comparing this to a tone bender mk1.5 and a tone bender mkII and pro that I built, they are loud but not like this one. Tha...

Hi There: I was wondering what I should do to tame some of the volume on this. This thing is very loud. I used a B250k pot but that didn't help, I upped the resistor on the 680k resistor that feeds the volume pot. I tried a 1 meg resistor and then a 2meg, but it started to be a bit farty. I love the...

Hi Kinski: Sorry to hear your still having trouble. I googled "crackling on a 5e3 build" and found a bunch of others that have had a similar problem. here's an example of one. http://www.el34world.com/Forum/index.php?action=printpage;topic=11445.0 He found that the ground lug on the chassi...

Hi Kinski: I built a 5e3 some 8 months ago. I had a hum problem. I read a whole bunch of articles on grounding, and i did what Simon had suggested a few comments ago and employed the "star grounding method". I had a drawing but its on my computer at work, sorry.... But you can google star ...

Hey DR.Tony, you sure make some purdy stuff, another great build.
And thanks for sharing the layout. Some day if i get the extra dough I want to build one of your layouts
Keep up the good work
Joe

Cheers, Mark. I am about to "plow some froth" tonight.


I look forward to this new layout of yours.
Is 300 more or less than you did in 2012?

Hi Mark, thanks for the layout. Your vero says 6 links, but i only count 5 ?
I looked at your site but only found the layout without the output buffer.
Best regards:
Glenn

Hey, Dr Tony Balls , wow that's nice! You inspired me with your 26 watt build from a while ago. I haven't built it yet, (wife). But i hope to. But i did build a tweed and a lightning, from scratch and i used your ground wire method [smilie=a_goodjobson.gif] I like your work, so neat, you obviously s...

. my questions: - I looked for ac15 kits online, but i couldn't find any, would you happen to know one? - if there is no kit, is there a project with an existing layout ? (i know i could follow an existing layout, buy parts from sellers, make my own BOM, etc.. but i'm not experienced in laying out ...

its the thumbs up icon near your name. I'll thank culturejam as well

Sinner: your pedals look so sexy, only geeks like us can drool over a bunch wire and stuff
Nice job, your layouts are a thing of beauty too. Keep up da good work!

I need to add to my "stuff sinner says" ~ "Got a vero?"

Ha

hey BEATR1, the trimmers @ the goldmine site look about right (first one which is a small one, or third one, which is bigger, looks good) it is a 10k, i think thats what you need for the sonic titan. Madbeans site and ggg have great diagrams on how to wire pedals. I just grabbed this because i had i...
