Carolina Special - RT (reverb/tremolo)

Post by 10thTx »

Continuing in an effort to give back information as thanks for all the information I've gotten on TAG. Here is my latest build. (actually a modded rebuild)

Sluckey on the Hoffman forum came up with the Vactrol being used in a tremolo. I installed one in an amp. Sounds fantastic.

More information on this amp can be found in this thread on the Hoffman forum: http://el34world.com/Forum/index.php?topic=25766.0

Power rail in on 2nd page of SCH schematic.

With respect, 10thtx

I made a quick demo of the tremolo on this amp. I'm quite happy with it. One triode (tube) with an amp using 5881's.
