must be why they came out with the nano I have the same problem. I have to use the supplied power transformer or, if I do use a different power supply I have to make sure that it is NOT daisy chained or I'll get the same thing. I haven't tried the Voodoo labs power supply yet but, that is my...

Tubes - Replacements ?? Hey all you guys who know stuff about these things that I don't! What tubes have you guys tried with good results for replacements to get a better sound? :confused: I'm looking at Ruby Select tubes and JJ tubes right now so, if anyone has a recommendation with their...

I'm happy now - Thanks guys I'm so happy !! I finally got around to getting a couple 100nf caps which I wired in parallel like you said replacing C1. The difference is night and day. Before the amp sounded too bassy and muffled without an eq in front of it. Now it sounds like a guitar amp...

D9 and D10 I modded my amp as I have stated in post 240. I left D9 and D10 in where deafelectromark took them out. What happens to the signal when I take them out? I am experiencing that the amp seems to break up rather quickly with humbuckers. If I remove D9 and D10 will that reduce the...

Cooling Fan Hey guys! I would like to add a cooling fan - the computer variety - to the amp chassis to help keep the tubes cool. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can power a 12v DC fan that draws about 1.5 to 3 watts? It would be nice to have a switch and/or be able to have the fan on...

Treble and mod in #240 It most definitely works ;) It is the way deafelectroark did it in his mods. I don't have two of either, I have only one of each. I am curious though, what does the 2.2u C1 stock cap do? Is it more of a mid boost? And, if I use the 100nf will it slightly or greatly...

Tone Stack seems to do VERY little I did the mod last night and, WOW!! The options above are the ones I haven't done. My only complaint is that the tone stack seems to do VERY little. I did remove C4 and C5. And, with a Route 66 pedal on the compression side the tone knob seems to give me back...

Bass Q and Clean Schematic Jim P - looking at Deafelectromark's mod, since C24 is cut out because the OP Amp is removed, what would be a way to increase the bass response or is there no need to do so? Clean Schematic

In response to post 207 being wrong with Jim P's adjustments I am no expert. I appreciate all that you do to help me figure this stuff out. Thanks Jim P. After I looked at the pictures supplied by deafelectromark after his mod I checked and rechecked where he hooked up the jumpers that he...

I'm curious why R11 should be upfront? What does that do? and what does having the way it is change anything?

Lookin good Ok, I got some pictures of deafelectromark's mod and so, I think I finally have it how he did the mod on the schematic and his pictures of the board.

Is it just me or is there a contradiction? Help I looked the mod deafelectromark (manoteal) posted with the schematic and, I think there is a discrepancy? In post 16 talk about the jumper from before the op amp to the first triode stage. In post #97 the actual pin number of the jumper is...

Hertz for Guitar Strings Jim, I have seen you post many many times on here however, this is just bad info! The low E string on the guitar is 82.4 Hz! Dude, c'mon!? Guitar: 82.4 Hz Low E 110 Hz A 146.8 Hz D 196 Hz G 246.9 Hz B 329.6 Hz High E Bass: 30.9 Hz Low B (5 string bass) 41.2 Hz Low E...

Thanks - simpler is better-I Hope I like how you described the tone parts. This mod seems much simpler than your other mods! I'm still comparing this mod and deafelectromark's. I like the idea of not having to jumper the volume pot. Jim_P - does the tone part of this mod work alongside...

What does very little gain and (clean and dirty) mean? Mark, I really like how simple your mod is compared to JP. I noticed you said that there is a lot less gain for distortion. Are you saying with just a standard strat/tele/les paul and a cable direct into the amp you get clean at max volume...

Changed the speaker I changed the speaker to an Eminence Red Coat Ramrod 75w speaker. Sounds great and it cleared the chasis. The height of the speaker is 4.3"

V5 newby I just got this little guy. The speaker sounds pretty bad but, I hooked it up to a 412 cab and it sounds much better. I would like to do some of the mods posted on here but, I can't decide between deafguy and jp? Jp is more defined but, the deafguy mod seems easier and more class A...
