100k/1.5k clips

Post by TimS »

Does anybody have, or could anybody please point me to, any clips of a 100k/1.5k D-style amp? I'm curious to hear the difference from the more popular "high value" circuit (I've read all of Gil's threads on the subject, but a clip as we all know is worth a thousand words).

Barring a clip, is "Running on Empty" pretty much representative of what one would expect from these amps or are they capable of a wider variety of tones? Also, how different (if at all) do the cleans sound compared to a Fender?

Thanks.

none of these are new, they are very old clips.

Running on empty is a whole other ballgame, that amp most likeley had a 100K slope as well as the PI from the 60's schematic.
