Hey Darin,

Thanks for those links, I missed that JM build somehow. That's close to what I'm wanting to do, but it still uses a 3 tube reverb as far as I can tell.
Here's what I'm wanting to do:

V1 Preamp
V2 Reverb driver
V3 Reverb recovery/mixer
V4 PI
V5 Post PI cathode follower driver

I also want to use the step filters. I'm just having an issue trying to paste in the Fender verb to Aaron's nice schematic ;)

Many thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

I did a guess-timate preamp schematic for Christopher Cross' Dumbleland 300SL here, https://tubeamparchive.com/viewtopic.php?t=25568
I've never built it but if your willing to try it, it sounds like what your after.

Hi Aaron,

That's exactly what I was looking for! I'll hopefully be able to start this build soon and I'll report back in this thread.

Many thanks!
