    Treble and Bright caps

    My personal preference is smaller cathode bypass and coupling caps early in the signal chain. Smaller is subjective and my personal preference certainly won't agree with everyone else.

    Treble and Bright caps

    C6/C7/C13 are cathode bypass caps. You can experiment with them without damaging anything. Changing C6 will have a stronger effect than changing C7. Changing C7 will have a stronger effect than changing C13. You can get into mud really quick with too high values early in the signal chain...

    Line 6 hd500 vs GSP1101 vs Tech21 PSA 1.1 vs Digi rp500

    RM100 - both front end of Clean module and FX loops. I can get a very respectable sound either way with the Digitech RP80. Line6 HD500 sounded terrible both ways. Various push/pull homebrew power amps (ECL86, 6V6, EL34, 6L6). Very hard to get anything but good sound through any of them. Cheap...

    Line 6 hd500 vs GSP1101 vs Tech21 PSA 1.1 vs Digi rp500

    I bought the Line6 HD500 last week and already returned it. Another one of those 'buy it based on all the great reviews without trying it first because I'm in a hurry' things. It may be the greatest thing since sliced bread for everyone else, but I rate it a strong both thumbs down and a long...

    Types of wire to use in modules.

    I can't hear any difference between cloth, ptfe, pvc, silver plated, pure copper, stranded, solid, or color. Nor can any member of my family, friends, or any neighbors that have shared their opinions. I'd bet that at least 99 out of 100 average humans wouldn't be able to consistently hear any...

    Still cigarette free, and don't even use the ecig much anymore. It's over and I won. This will be my last update but I sincerely wish everyone the best of luck if they give quitting a try. You can do it...

    Mid Sweep

    100n is all I've tried. That's what was suggested to me... it worked... done deal. I have messed with the range and find that I prefer a 22K slope resistor and 50K-L pot for a smooth sweep of 22K to 72K. Nice (IMO) extended frame of lower than marshall to higher than soldano. Knob centered on...

    Mid Sweep

    Adding the 100n cap doesn't significantly affect tone strictly compared to not adding the cap. At least it never has in the dozen or so that I've done. edit: I can't imagine that there would be any difference, but I meant the dozen or so amps that I've done this 'mod' on... not modules.

    Mid Sweep

    Yes, R31 is the slope resistor on those schematics. Yes, a pot in series with the slope resistor makes it adjustable. There's 1 more part though... add a 100n cap in front of the slope resistor/pot. Opinions vary on whether the cap is needed or not, but my personal experience says the cap is...

    Vaping

    Pack a day of menthols for 28 years here. No words to describe how much I hate having to say that. I've seen the ecigs before but always thought they were a novelty item at best. Saw this thread and finally decided to give them a try. Package from Vicki arrived Monday at lunch. Threw my real...

    Clean module tube observations

    I like my stock clean module. It just sometimes seems to lean slightly towards being a generic clean if that makes any sense. So I spent yesterday rolling various tubes through it. It would take all day to type every combination so I'm only going to be brief here. Originally it had a JJ 12AX7...

    Any tips for the XTC?

    Thanks for the link. Not sure how I missed that one. R14 is already 43k and C1 is 2n2 on mine. I'm not sure that changing C1 is going to be enough to get me where I want to be. Neighbor kid had some killer tone blasting out of it yesterday. It immediately went back to sounding average every...
