NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

And here - they made a cover for my Dr. Z Maz 18R a wile back.

Hey all :wave: Brown sound + cot50. Has diode and LED clipping. My next project is probably a 2 channel dumkudo switchable with one circuit with a boost knob. What do you guys use to label the pedals? https://i.imgur.com/tW462XF.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/XlAmvYB.jpeg That looks so nicely built. But ...

Looks like you are gonna be very busy soon!

New Jansen C8R from Denche?

I'm a techy type - can't help it. "Can a different cab affect the gain"? No. Can a different cab effect the reproduced sound, yes.

Tech alert... "gain" occurs with active components such as valves, transistors, FETs etc. Pickups don't have gain, speakers don't have gain. So assuming the same impedance speaker load (be it a 6", 8 ohm Sony speaker in a box or a 412 8-ohm Marshall cab), with the same guitar, then th...

Love it

That's mojo baby!

In a 6L6 valve, pin 1 is spare. In a 7027A valve, pin 1 is internally connected to pin 4 (the screen grid). So if the amp in question has nothing soldered to pin 1 on the valve base then you should be OK (apart from checking bias). But if the amp in question has something soldered to pin 1 on the va...

My first real amp was a Jansen Bassman 75.

Measure the resistance across R21 in circuit (but NOT powered up). You should get a reading of 110 ohms or close.

Thanks, I'll see if I can get it somewhere... Found it at Repco but still open to any other recommendations!

Thanks JB, that looks worth a shot.

Ta, I was reading that it contains substances that are corrosive (to copper tracks etc) - there is an "electrical" silicon but I can't find any! Cheers.

Just wondering what product the amp techs are using to adhere large electrolytic capacitors together to damp vibration? It's usually white rubbery (silicone?) flexible stuff!

If that doesn't butter your toast JB I've got a brand new Jensen RI P8R. Hit me up if you want to try it.
