Re: 2024 Monkeymatic Liverpool (nontraditional)
Hey Aaron, I just built my Liverpool for the second time. I used the 68k instead of the 150k per Miles suggestion. Mine has the high gain hiss but No extra noise. I also can crank the amp to 2 than after that it’s way too loud. I guess these amps are like the express as a lot of the volume comes on ...

Re: Building a mini Super Lead with 4 x EF80
Here is a great example, which I built from the schematic provided by Randalp3000
I love the amp and play it all the time. He or me didn’t use ef80 we used 6aq5 s which are like a 6v6 but with 7 pins

Re: 2xEL84 Rocket
Hey Ryan: Glad you are going with the full Rocket. I love mine and there is a fullness to the sound over my 15 watt amps. (although I built Sluckeys AC15 with reverb and its one of my favourite amps). I have that Heyboer OT in my Rocket but I got if off RJ and it wasn't as costly back a few years ag...

Re: Rocket build
I just looked at you PT specs At the Pacific websites and this PT does not have a 5volt tap. You would have to use SS rectification. Rocket amps have a tube rectifier. Your OT has a 7.5k primary. Rockets typically use a 4k primary I imagine your transformer set is more suited to a Liverpool. I guess...

Re: Vibroverb 64 issue
I would start with installing a new preamp tube in v1 and moving on if the trouble stays. You can also strum hard and see if any tube shows fireworks or no heater light. These are good non intrusive first steps.

Re: New SLO 100 clone
Aww Mark I was wondering what happened to you. I hope everything is ok now. I must have taken a while to unpack all those amps

Re: New 12w Liverpool build
thanks for the info. I looked on Mouser and saw the vector boards there, I didn't think these were still made.
I have an Edcor PT with 270 0 270, so I'll use that.
again nice build

Re: New 12w Liverpool build
Wow nice job! I like your boards, where did they come from? Your cabinets are very nice too. I built a 6f6 Express, it’s amazing how loud these smaller tubes sound in these circuits I have 2 sets of these 6bm8 tubes, I think I should copy you but build a small Rocket. I have the iron as well. What s...

Re: Rocket / Build
Hi. I believe the stack of caps was siliconed, using a silicone that won't hurt the outside of the caps. I used hot glue once and either I didn't have the right glue or not, but I dint like it. I built my Rocket with 2 cap cans - 40/40 and 40/20/20/20. its not traditional but for me who cares. I als...

Re: new 18w liverpool build... it works
your cabinet looks great... I really love my Liverpool, and I am also in the process of finishing my cabinet. I think I will copy you and use the tung oil.
Good job

Re: Jose modded Steve Vai Marshall
Here's a link to what Miles described. Mark Fowler brought this info to us. It might not be exactly what Steve VaI has, but this amp is a beast. I built one for my kid, but I still have it because His music taste changed He loves the Funk sound now... the weirdo :mrgreen: https://ampgarage.com/forum...
