High Plate Skyline 100 Watt ODS

[Structo]

BTW guys, that pilot light was a Radio Shack Score.

They are made for 12v DC.

They have red, yellow and green. Fit right in the hole.

It has a resistor already in it so you don't need to add one.

They also have this style with a flat nose.

I use those in my footswitch too - all 3 colors. Red=OD, yellow=PAB, green=mid boost. On one amp I put them on the front panel as well, so they light up on the amp when they also light up on the footswitch. Kinda cool.

Not sure what you mean Ange?
Head switcher?

I have a three button foot switch with Mid Boost, OD and PAB.

Sorry, back a few posts Bob-I mentioned a head switcher with his setup... I'll PM him.

I'll have to check my Radio Shack down the block for those lights.
Build looks great Tom!

[Drumslinger]

I just happen to see those last week at Radio Shack but didn't pick any up.

Tom, I think you need more stuff in your rack. Why stop now?

Excellent build man!

[Structo]

Hehehehe, it's a sickness as we all know.

Bluesmanfenderblues (Claus) reminded me that I should let the dust settle and the components break in a while until I start changing too much.

I did that on my D'lite and chased my tail in a complete circle ending back with 101 values.

It does sound pretty good.
I got a quad of new Tung Sol 6L6 STR's yesterday.
I've wanted to try those.

I wish I had a dummy load so that I could run some signals through it while it sits there.

[ChrisM]

Might want to give it a bit more burn in time before any more changes. I always find that helps, amp settles a bit.

[Structo]

OK Chris, you get credit for telling me as well.

[ChrisM]

Thanks Tom! haha

I just know these amps can change a ton after putting the hours in on them. So many components, lots of variables.

[David Root]

Chris, do you have to play them or is it enough that they are on in play mode? I don't want to wear out my old blackplate RCAs but I have lots of Shuguang 6L6GCs I got from Lord Valve for $19 a pair.

Typically, how many hours in your experience?

[johan]

Connect it to your iPhone and put "Politician" on repeat.

[Structo]

I wonder how loud you have to play the amp to break it in?

Yesterday I had a loop playing through it at a comfortable listening level.

I got those same pilot lights (Mode brand) from Electro Sonic at
www.e-sonic.com for 0.883 cents each with $7.91 shipping from Canada to USA.

I thought I was getting the larger Mode lights like the TWs use but these are the small ones like Radio Shack carries.
