Hey Everyone, I'm new here. Been playin about 15 yrs, and am about to build a JTM50 clone. I love the hendrix stuff and BOG is my favorite guitar tone, along with SRV's texas Flood.

I was thinking, Hendrix always daisy chained his amps together going from the low input of the first out to the hi input of the bright channel of the next. looks like the mic was in front of the middle stack for the filmore shows, could the warmer tone be from the lo input feeding the 2nd amp?

Could be I have noticed before when chaining amps together it changes the tone of all the amps. You can never completly nail the tone with out 3 full stacks chained

Most of his amps were shared cathode up until Woodstock, Both sides of V1 through the 820K/ 250uf which equates to the normal channel, at 2X the gain on the first stage
