Re: Any magic in the Paraphase inverter?
Thank you for your replies, gentlemen. I am going with the paraphase inverter. Planning to add a plate load trimmer resistor (across the 220k/220k anode pair), as well as a (10k) trimmer resistor between the 220k/220k grid leak and tap point. I'm thinking of placing the Tremonator just after the pre...

Any magic in the Paraphase inverter?
I've got a mashup project on the table. Tremolux "big box" Tweed cab, 60W Alnico speaker, chrome chassis screen-printed for a Tremolux 5E9A circuit. Slightly modified Tremolux preamp, Steve Luckey's Tremonator trem circuit, and either the 5E9A's paraphase or just a standard long-tailed pair PI (with...

Re: Friedman Naked Amp schematic?
Phase inverter: C17 250pF C10 .022uF R45 10k C38 .0047uF Presence pot 25k. R26 Jumper Delete Depth Pot C35 .001uF goes to SPKR Jack Tip Xenrelic, Thanks for posting that. Billy Howerdel has killer tone. So, no feedback resistor? Just the capacitive divider 1n->10n/4k7? Do you know if this is on the...

Re: Broken 5E3 for sale locally - worth checking out?
I agree. The asking price is absurd. You can build a top notch example of the amp using the best transformers, parts, and a well-lacquered tweed cabinet for that. Most so-called kits are a way to get into the hobby, but are often designed around a price point and not necessarily the best representat...

Re: Tweedle Dee on Carter
This amp looks like it may have started life as an Edge signature 5E3, but that's just a guess

Re: Stirs Neural pot
The problem with society now is firmware. Firmware is the best thing to happen to hardware since chrome plating. Who would have thunk the Helix I bought years ago would keep getting better and better? I get the whole thing where these devices are great when you have to cover a lot of different band...

Re: Stirs Neural pot
The problem with society now is firmware. I don't need firmware driven things. It's the solution to a non-existent problem. My car is a rolling living room with an iPad in the dash. The key fob stopped working. Cost me nine hours of paid time off, a trip to the city, 80 miles round trip in gas and t...

Re: Deluxe Reverb power transformer change?
I ran some 6L6GWB/5881s in a Bassman at about 460V for a little less than a year before one flashed over. They were new production and decent-ish, but they weren't up for the challenge in the long run. I installed a pair of EL34s and increased the screen resistors and haven't looked back.

Re: Starting to populate the chassis....
See here: https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=464718#p464718 I see Whopperplate has already included Aiken's glossary in an Electronics Glossaries post in the FAQ section, so maybe the new one I just added could be deleted. OTOH, maybe Aiken's guitar amp specific glossary deserves its own F...
