Yeah, twisting heater wires together is a time waster for me. Once I figured out where hum comes from (ground scheme, PT vs OT orientation, poor lead dress), I realized heater dress matters much less.

I like how you smoke-bursted the logo on your front panel, it looks great.
Just plug it in, man.

Beautiful as always! Thanks for sharing.Yeah, twisting heater wires together is a time waster for me. Once I figured out where hum comes from (ground scheme, PT vs OT orientation, poor lead dress), I realized heater dress matters much less.
I have done my heater wires this way as well on a few builds and no difference in noise.
I had a Dr Z Maz amp on the bench a while ago and the heaters were also done this way.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I saw you used those special preamp boards that you made with Lou on this build.
I have used them on several builds , one an Overdrive Special and one an Overdrive Reverb and they work great!
Thanks guys!

Yes those Noval sockets work great!
They are a time saver too.
I just bought a bunch from Lou to last me the year!
