New 2550X build (will be 2555X) + soundclip + highgainclip

[RagnarMarGunn]

Ok, SDM's layouts are very nice and easy to follow. Good luck for the build, would like very much to hear it when it is ready.

Btw. what trannies are You going to use ? Metro ? MM ?Mat

I wanted to try something new so I ordered trannies from http://www.magneticcomponents.net/
through Ebay, simply because it's cheap. In Iceland we have to pay 24.5% VAT on all imports so building amps is an expensive hobby. SDM is the man, I'll post a build log when I start.

Clip with gain at full, presence + treble at zero:

My guitars (Gibson 339) humbuckers are not high output ones. With hotter pickups the sound should be far more distorted. I rarely use this much gain so they work for me just fine.

cheers,
Mat

I know this is a very old tread but, Mat, how did you solve the squealing issue when switching to the HI ( or low ) output option? I just finished my SDM 2550X and have that same problem, also i only have one channel ( lead channel ), something is wrong with the relay or with the switching channel circuit... Thanks in advance!!!
