Re: Robben Ford & His Dumble Overdrive Special

I may be the minority , but I honestly can’t vibe with the top end of 102 . Feels like a cavity is being filled , so says the resident critical ear of my wife , and I have to concur . It may have all the other magic 3d dumble note articulation and chord clarity , but I far prefer other examples of ...

Re: Anyone else having issues with the board?

Right now ampgarage.com is extremely slow/ not responding. I tried to answer some PM, after half an hour I gave up.

Re: Starting to populate the chassis....

There are a lot of good soldering station out there.
Depending on budget ofc.
I have a JBC BT-2BQA. Temp adjustment and is soldering ready in less than 3sec. It has a active tip and powers down when in station to avoid burning your tip.

Re: Bluesmaster HRM question:

The one Rootz probably is talking about; #189 with a trimmer on the mid pot. The amp is unverified as a Ripper model.

Re: SSS002 build happiness

The Layout shows 5 terminals on the can cap. Why? The gut shot you posted of #002 is very blurry and pixelated, and the two large resistors block all but one terminal. It's impossible to tell how many terminals are on that can. How do we know HAD used a C-EC20X-475 cap? Has someone documented it fr...

See the BOM for the SS002 project: https://www.cedist.com/products/capacitor-ce-mfg-475v-20202020-f-el...

On the final two 20uF filter caps in the can providing power to V1 and Reverb: B+ is tied to the Negative terminal of the can cap, then the 1k resistors to the the posi...
