Amp Pre/Rev Walk-thru on YT

Post by lonote »

Last week, Chris, the Rift amp guy, drew up a schematic for a Hook Little Lenny he was servicing, then went through the circuit & topography, which I found interesting. Overall it seems familiar, but with some added twists.

He mentioned a couple times that some features in both the pre & reverb were Dumble-ish, but I have just about zero familiarity with those designs, so I can't comment.

The tonestack is Fender-ish, but the mid has it's own path to ground. The nearest I see in the various TS calculators is a "Crate" TS. https://tonestack.yuriturov.com/

The reverb is again Fender-ish, but has an additional stage on both ends. Makes me wonder if this is better or worse than the Fender reverb recovery, which I find to be a huge source of noise.
