Ok... I'll look in to that... I know I had something like that... I don't have the 50k mid pot, but I have been tweeking around with the 44nF PI input cap, actually... there's something about that one that I like... The rest looks like it's the sameTazin wrote:I think you had the following specs on the "oddball stock parts" clip:
2K7/0.68uF for V1b.
A 0.0022uF decoupling cap for V1b.
820R/0.68uF for V2a.
44nF PI input cap.
47K mid pot.

Re: A new clip...
It's been a while. Great to see/hear that amp again. I'm curious, in your country, your electricity runs at like 220VAC. Is that right?

Re: A new clip...
And are you using the 220 tap? 230 tap? 240 tap?

Re: A new clip...
I'm using the 240 tap... I don't have any 230 tap... I have 240, 220 and 120v taps...
It gives me around 460v plate voltage. If I hook it up at 220v tap, it'll get me around 500v
Maybe I should mention that I use the 1203-80 pt with a single rectifyer from metro.
Differences are the 1203-80 keeps a tad lower voltage than my T2562, with that one I get pretty close to 500v... even at 240v tap.

Re: A new clip...
Ralle, I remember you were using a Mighty Mite pickup for awhile. What's your opinion on the Mighty Mite? I was lucky enough to snag a 1300 this month for a decent price. It's a very nice sounding pickup, more highs/less bottom than a SD.

Re: A new clip...
I think they're ok... I had a DSD as my favorit pu for a long time up till I got my Gibson lp with a 500t in... Really, I'm not sure if the 500t sounds better than the DSD, but it doesn't squeel like hell at least. It's ceramic pu as the DSD, a bit hotter as well ( maybe too hot ) so I guess that's where the thing is for me... If my memory serves me right the 1300 has a bit lower output than the DSD ( or MM 1400 ), but sounds just about right... As I don't think there's just one pu for the sound, this is absoloutly one of'em.
The SD jb is a wonderfull pu... allso one of my favs

Re: A new clip...
I'm still trying to find a 1400. I have a 1300 and just put it in a heavy ash strat. Very very nice PU but is very sensitive to the distance from the strings. Can't be too close, IMO.

Re: A new clip...
First of all, the playing and tone is stellar -- as usual man!
Blown away that that's a 500T -- or really any ceramic pickup. Because to me it doesn't sound flat like ceramics often can, which is I think why so many people don't like them. I guess a lot of it is the amp, some of it is your fingers, I'm thinking some of it is volume? How far roughly is the pickup from the strings? 009s?
