Re: Newb ? which circuit

Thanks again. Y'all know how to make a guy welcome. I've been listening to more clips and I think I can't go wrong with any of the circuits. They all sound good. Since its my first build like this I think I'm going to go with the 124. The layout is outstanding and much appreciated. Plus I have some transformers from a TR clone that I can pop in this build. It'll take some time getting the parts together but I hope to post pics and clips later. Any recommendations for a chassis that will fit a Twin PT and is easy to source parts for?

The 124 platform is a very good base to start with.
You can always change things to see how you like them, such as high plates or converting it to HRM.

If you build and wire according to the #124 layout, you should have a pretty good sounding amp.

Don't let that smoke out!

Ahhh! Well then, that gives you some hope of finding the right circuit, since JH is a Fuchs guy & Andy Fuchs just happens to be a contributor here.

Hopefully Andy will comment on the circuit Jimmy uses......

WOW! JH makes everything he plays look "effortless", doesn't he?

No kidding! Makes me sick sometimes. I'm listening to a stream of the Nolaween show right now. Well thanks to Mr. Fuchs for hooking him up with his amp :twisted:
