I have always really dug how the 70s circuits work with Strats.. Here's a 100watter 70s circuit with a Rosewood SC Strat with Low output pups. We were using a Quinn HBS pedal for some specific Jimmy Herring type tones.. http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12216036 And here's a YT clip with my EJ stra...

Cool- Anyone around here ever tried to build one? Are there Schematics?

I have a Metro Superbass I would consider modding up.

Anyone have any detail on the Marshall Mod- I know Rob (Voodoosound) has spoken of it and i think had/has one. Not much detail if any on what it's all about..Anyone?

http://youtu.be/d0UBwHe-NcQ I really liked this speaker in the 100 watt Zingaro- when I tried it at the LA show. I believe this was a Celestion G12K 100- That said- MY favorite speaker for the Bluesmaster circuits is the Alnico Gold. I would like to try some higher powered Scumnicos with that amp.

spiralstairs wrote:sounds great! what speakers?

Thanks. The speakers are Celestion Golds. I have a 4X12 of Blues that sounds really good with this and the express. Louder than shit though.

I think I can figure out how to get some better recording..to highlight these amps.

Thanks you guys- As far as the reverb level I keep it pretty low. It's like a safety net for me. I am an admitted (though not recovering) reverb junky. Sorry OT- Not sure why it's not working in Germania. I tried to look at settings but it may the fact that I used a Beck track in the intro/credit. T...

El34 Rocket clip I did.

The clip got a little clippy when uploaded to YT.

Anyway- Here it is

Sounds great Ted!! I love the 70's style these days. I was ripping away on my 4x6V6 - SC amp over the weekend and it is just fun to play. How is the R-A-L working out? Gary It's awesome..The Reverb A Loop is awesome a brilliant Idea and I'm loving it. I am running it with the All the Loop Amps and ...

Cool tones- Like the wammy bar inflections.

Just Curious- Is the Can you dig it tag line in your sig from Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush Live?

What is that swtich you flip at 2.08? Starve switch? Since the volume does not change that much, I guess it is not a starve switch??!?! Check it out..MK in the house with some proper tech answers... ETron- That's the manual PAB that I hit where all that sick ass gain and wool comes on. I agree that...

Oh no..More tech questions- Electron-- I do think this is a Hybrid. MK will hopefully chime in @ some point. It does have a separate (not global) Master, so more like a traditional Skyliner layout. Bright Switch off on the Amp. but I do have the low Bright (or Bright 1) engaged on the 'lator. I like...

Thanks guys- Tom- I sent you a PM on the builder.. I really like this circuit for Single Coils. My 50 watt Double Trouble is also based on this (70s) circuit and it really rips too. I hope to start shooting and editing a vid with that amp as well as I think Bill does some really cool stuff with his ...

Hey Folks- Ted here. I finally shot and edited my first Vid. This is a 100 watt 70s circuit built by a Private Builder.. This was more of a How does it all work/sound type vid..See how turned out.. Anyway- I think the 70s circuit is really unique and frankly the best Clean amp of the bunch..the PAB ...

Their stuff seems to be consistently over priced, though the RedPlate seems pretty in line. Particularly with the EV Speaker. Henry's amps are getting great traction and rightly so.. The Two Rock seems out of line- Anyone no anything about that particular amp though? Seems like a TS1.. but with more...

I forgot about the Fane Studio 12L Killer Speaker- Jelle described it to me a as a EV12L meets Greenback. He's right. Great speaker- Particularly in a open back (Oval) or Thiele cab. I haven't tried it with the 70s heads but it rips it up with the HRM El34 amp for sure. I haven't had any experience ...
