    PSA regarding tubes

    For the last two years I have nearly exclusively stocked and sold Ruby Tubes from Magic Parts with prescreening and burn-in. These services are for shops, so I don't know if the the consumer Ruby branded tubes have the bad tubes weeded out like mine do. It also allows me to offer a 3 month...

    Do Friedman modules have master volume magic?

    Almost every module ever made in the history of the modular line has that resistor off the wiper of the treble pot entering the master volume. There is a pair of resistors forming a voltage divider off the wiper of the master. That type of circuit is actually pretty common in many amps. It...

    Jaded Faith Mods Tone Comparison Chart

    I can try. I no longer retain a graphic artist, so I will have to figure out how I can make something on my own.

    Salvation Module switch pop

    I have never seen the module in question, however switch pops are always due to the circuit design. Whenever something something being toggled by a switch pops, you are hearing the rapid charging of something being connected to ground that did not have any previous electrical reference. There...

    Sorry for the delay Ned, I have a 6-week-old daughter at home and I'm not high-functioning again until October...just saw this now. To answer your questions: 1) How far should I mod the Egnater? Fog lifter+ and the 3-way or do every mod available? The Foglifter+ is the biggest bang for the...

    HBE for Plexi?

    Recently had a customer swing by the shop on his way to a concert that evening. We ran through his Synergy OD, Plexi, DS and BE/BB modules. THe Plexi was really cool to me and up my alley. I have a mint HBE and it's more gain than I would fancy. Anyone interested in a straight-up trade?

    Syn5050 bias inside?

    You are welcome. I can't tell you how many times I had to hunt for the hole to bias one of Steve's amps. Easy to miss for sure.

    Syn5050 bias inside?

    I have never seen one. However, it was designed by Steve Fryette and I have repaired and serviced lots of his amps. His bias pots tend to be a small hole about 1/10 of an inch with the bias trim pot mounted under the PCB on most of his amps. I could imaging the Synergy power amp being the same...

    Is there a more active forum?

    My personal observation based on my own personal experiences and many of my customers that I speak with regularly is a general migration away from internet forums. There can be a lot of clicks, hidden agendas, unpleasantness and general nastiness on forums. There is something about the lack of...

    Jaded Faith Mod Website now online

    The photos on the website clearly show what options each module is equipped with. As far as the circuits, each mod is our take on accomplishing the tone of a given amp on the MTS platform. We no longer offer custom faceplates and no one by the name of Kyle is in our employment. There are no...

    Talk to me about the JF Vox

    Sorry if the clips don't show a wide enough range guys. I had a customer make those. While I think they are good, I agree they are narrow in the range they show and many sound like they are dialed in similarly. I can see where that would be a non-starter for a potential sale. Unfortunately I no...
