Hey guys. I have a lot of you to thank for my success in the tone chase.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Here is a clip of my three home made amps, please excuse the clams. I fell and hurt my left hand and can't really play all that well yet...

Re: My three homemade amps...
Congrats! Great amps, great playing, great video!
Is that the Strymon El Capistan tape sim pedal? If so what do you think about it? Worth the 300 bones?
And is that middle amp a Hall microPlex? Someday I am going to finish mine...
Good job!

Yes, the Strymon is awesome. I use it on the clean amps in stereo.JazzGuitarGimp wrote:Congrats! Great amps, great playing, great video!

Left is AB763 circuit but with a KT88 power section, Right is JTM45/100 circuit.

The middle amp is a stock 2204 circuit.

Re: My three homemade amps...
Sounds great!
So, the Strymon pedal gives you left (AB763) and right (JTM45), but how does the signal get to the middle amp?
I'm impressed that your multi-amp rig yields great tone and flexibility without noise (hiss and hum). I don't think that happened by accident; every time I've tried it, the result has been compromised by noise. I wonder what I'm doing wrong?
Anyway, tasty playing and great tone! Thanks for posting.

Re: My three homemade amps...
Sounds good!
What are you using to switch the amps?
What is the the looper being used?
EDIT:
I found this mentioned on another of your videos.
Are you using these in this video?
Pedals: for OD2 (Maxon AD999 in loop), RMC Picture Wah. for right and left amps: El Capistan. Radial Bigshot A/B/Y for switching, Boss DD7 for looping.

Yup, I used the same set up.
Here is a pic of the pedalboard:
